My instrument says my drivers door is open when it is not. I can open my car with the remote, but can not lock it. Is it the Comfort Control Module? VW Passat 2001. 2.0L

1. Remote battery: Make sure the remote battery is charged and functioning properly. Try replacing the battery with a new one if necessary.
2. Remote signal: Make sure the remote signal is reaching the vehicle. Try using the remote in different locations to see if the signal is stronger in some areas.
3. Lock mechanism: Check the lock mechanism in the driver's door to make sure it is functioning properly. Make sure the latch is not stuck or damaged and that the lock is not obstructed.
4. Wiring: Check the wiring in the door to make sure it is not damaged or disconnected. Make sure all connections are clean and secure.
5. Control module: The problem may be with the control module that operates the locks. A professional mechanic can test the module and replace it if necessary.

All interior light's not working ? Instrument cluster , dome light's , switch light , instrument panel , map ,reading lamps etc...... Probably not a fuse problem , more then likely the LCM - lighting control module . Do you know anything about automotive electronics ? Control modules ? DTC'S - diagnostic trouble code's ?
Illuminated Entry The illuminated entry system:

• is controlled by the lighting control module.
• provides courtesy lighting upon entry to and exit from the vehicle.

The keyless entry keypad illuminates when any keyless entry keypad button is pressed, regardless of the ignition switch position. The keyless entry keypad remains illuminated for five seconds after a handle is raised or for five seconds following the last keypad button pressed. Courtesy lamps will be illuminated for 25 (±1) seconds which includes a theater lighting ramp-up time (two seconds). This time interval does not include the theater lighting ramp-down time. Courtesy lamps will be turned off before the 25 (±1)-second timeout if the ignition switch is turned to the RUN or ACC position. NOTE: When the illuminated entry feature is activated by using the keyless entry remote transmitter, the keyless entry keypad does NOT illuminate. The illuminated entry system has the following additions to accommodate the keyless entry system:

• Pressing any button on the keyless entry keypad or pressing the UNLOCK button on the keyless entry remote transmitter will activate the illuminated entry system (with theater ramp-up). When the driver door module detects a button press, it sends a signal on the J1850 communication network activating the courtesy lamps. The keypad will remain illuminated for five seconds following the illuminated entry ON signal transition or for five seconds following the last keypad button press.
• If the keyless entry keypad 7/8 and 9/0 buttons are pressed concurrently (to lock the doors) or the LOCK button on the keyless entry remote transmitter is pressed:
  • the lighting control module will turn off the lamps by sensing the all doors lock signal.
  • the driver door module will also turn OFF the keyless entry keypad illumination when the last two keyless entry keypad buttons are pressed concurrently.
  • Lamps, Courtesy Courtesy lamps can be turned on by using the panel dim switch located on the headlamp switch assembly or by opening any door. A theater lighting feature gradually increases or decreases the light intensity when switched by opening or closing a door. Courtesy lamps (controlled by the lighting control module) are activated by using the dome lamp switch (instant ON/OFF response) or when a door is ajar. The following lamps illuminate for courtesy lighting:
    • instrument panel courtesy lamps
    • front map lamps
    • rear reading lamps
    • Inspection and Verification
      
      1. Verify the customer's concern by operating the courtesy and demand lamps to duplicate the condition.
         
      1. Inspect to determine if one of the following electrical concerns apply:

      1. If the concern remains after the inspection, connect the Rotunda New Generation Star (NGS) Tester 007-00500 or equivalent to the data link connector (DLC) located beneath the instrument panel to perform Data Link Diagnostics Test. If the NGS responds with NO RESPONSE/NOT EQUIPPED for the lighting control module, go to Pinpoint Test AA . If the NGS responds with NO RESPONSE/NOT EQUIPPED for the driver door module, go to Pinpoint Test AB . If the Data Link Diagnostic test is passed for the lighting control module and driver door module, retrieve continuous DTCs and execute self test diagnostics for the suspect module(s).
         
      1. If self test is passed and no DTCs are retrieved, GO to the Symptom Chart to continue diagnostics.
         
      1. If DTCs are retrieved for the lighting control module, go to the Lighting Control Module (LCM) Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Index to continue diagnosis. If DTCs are retrieved for the driver door module, go to the Driver Door Module (DDM) Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Index to continue diagnostics.
         
      1. If the lighting control module cannot be accessed by the NGS tester, go to Pinpoint Test AA . If the driver door module cannot be accessed by the NGS tester, go to Pinpoint Test AB .
         
      Rotunda Service Bay Diagnostic System (SBDS®) 001-00001 may also be used to diagnose this system.
      

. When you open the door or just unlock the door the lights don't come on ?
Vehicle Security Module The vehicle security module receives inputs from the following:

• door ajar switches
• keyless entry keypad
• ignition switch
• remote keyless entry transmitter

The vehicle security module uses these inputs to control an output signal to the instrument cluster which controls the battery saver relay and courtesy lamp output.
Interior Lighting Systems The instrument cluster grounds the battery saver relay and supplies the power for courtesy lamps when any door ajar switch is opened, or the interior lamp (headlamp) switch is closed. The instrument cluster then supplies voltage to the interior lamp circuit. Vehicle speed must be less than 24 kph (15 mph) for the instrument cluster module to keep courtesy lamps on. The interior lamps will remain illuminated for up to 25 seconds after all doors are closed unless the instrument cluster module receives an input from any of the following:

• voltage from the ignition switch
• a vehicle speed signal
• input from the keyless entry keypad through the vehicle security module
• input from the remote keyless entry transmitter lock or panic switch through the vehicle security module

Do you know what body control system DTC'S - diagnostic trouble codes are ?
Instrument Cluster Diagnostic Trouble Code Index DTC Description Source Action B1342 ECU is Defective Instrument Cluster REFER to Section 413-01 .

B1328 Passenger Door Ajar Circuit Open Instrument Cluster Go To Pinpoint Test A . - All Other DTCs Instrument Cluster REFER to Section 419-10 .
Principles of Operation
The autolamp system provides light-sensitive automatic on/off control of the headlamps and parking lamps controlled by the vehicle security module when the headlamp switch is in the autolamps position. When the ignition switch is turned to the RUN or START position with the autolamps feature already enabled and the ambient light level is dark, the vehicle security module will request the headlamps and parking lamps be turned on. When the autolamps are disabled, the vehicle security module will request the headlamps and parking lamps to be turned off, regardless of the ignition switch position. When the vehicle security module has turned on the exterior lamps and the ignition is turned to the OFF or ACCY position, the exterior lamps will remain on for an additional time specified by the customer or the headlamp switch is turned off.
When the autolamps have been enabled and the ignition switch is in the RUN/START position, the vehicle security module will request that the exterior lamps be turned on or off based on ambient light level. If the vehicle enters darkness for at least 15 seconds, the vehicle security module will request the exterior lamps on. If the vehicle enters light for at least 15 seconds, the vehicle security module will request the exterior lamps off. By delaying turning on and off the exterior lamps during short periods of darkness and light, the vehicle security module prevents the exterior lamps from flashing on and off.

• The autolamps are inoperative - do not operate correctly

• Circuitry.
• Photocell.
• Headlamp switch.
• Vehicle security module.

• Go To Pinpoint Test G .

Power Lock
The power lock/unlock feature requests all of the vehicle doors, including the liftgate, be locked or unlocked upon a customer request from any interior door lock switch in the vehicle. The power door locking system functions independently of ignition status or vehicle speed. When the vehicle security module receives an unlock/lock command from any door lock control switch, the vehicle security module will activate relays internal to the module to supply the correct power and grounds for the door lock actuators.
Your best bet , take it to a qualified repair shop .

Do you know anything about automotive electronic's ? Control modules ?
Vehicle Security Module
The vehicle security module receives inputs from the following:

• Door ajar switches
• Keyless entry keypad
• Ignition switch
• Remote keyless entry (RKE) transmitter

The vehicle security module uses these inputs to control an output signal to the instrument cluster which controls the battery saver relay and interior lamp relay. The battery saver relay and the interior lamp relay are internal to the instrument cluster, and are not replaceable. There could be a faulty switch input to the I/C - insturment cluster , causing the vehicle security module to activate the lock's an light's .
Interior Lighting Systems
The instrument cluster grounds the battery saver relay and interior lamp relay coils when any door ajar switch is opened, or the interior lamp (headlamp) switch is closed. The interior lamp relay then supplies voltage to the interior lamp circuit. Vehicle speed must be less than 24 km/h (15 mph) for the instrument cluster to ground the interior lamp relay. The interior lamps remain illuminated for up to 25 seconds after all doors are closed unless the instrument cluster receives an input from any of the following:

• voltage from the ignition switch.
• a vehicle speed signal.
• input from the keyless entry keypad through the vehicle security module.
• input from the RKE transmitter unlock or panic switch through
• the vehicle security module.

The control unit (comfort system central control module) that opens the doors from the fob signal is usually under the dash on the driver's side. You cam see it on page 7 or so of the diagrams at http://www.revbase.com/BBBMotor/Wd/DownloadPdf?id=132991

Since the other fob features are working, it might be that the module just doesn't recognize the signal the fob is sending.
Or maybe the fob is not sending a signal at all. Very hard to troubleshoot, but you can check to see if the control module is sending voltage to the locks by probing the connectors on the module.

*5 The comfort module is the main control module located under the drivers side of the dash.

Use this diagram for the door trigger isolation: motorsport.com/images/install_notes/149.jpg

Use DIAGRAM A.


Hope this helps.

I think your door switch may have stuck open - due to weather infiltration, water, general malfunction,
etc. The driver's door is always the first to show wear at the switch.
