Hi all,

My vag com is showing

Address 72: Door, Rear Right        Labels: 1K0-959-704-GEN3.lbl
   Part No SW: 1K0 959 704 K    HW: 1K0 959 704 K
   Component: Tuer-SG         006 1207 
   Coding: 0000144
   Shop #: WSC 01279 785 1012552

1 Fault Found:
00099 - Rear Right Central Locking (Safe) Motor (V164)
            012 - Electrical Fault in Circuit - Intermittent

yet when I ebay search for 1K0 959 704 K its coming up with
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-GOLF-MK5-SKODA-OCTAVIA-RIGHT-DRIVER-SIDE-REAR-DOOR-WINDOW-MOTOR-1K0959704K-/321568619114?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item4adefbba6a

this part seems to match more whats on http://www.my-gti.com/wp-content/uploads/volkswagen_golf_jetta_mirror_removal_14.jpg

So I'm confused on which part I need to replace.....

I should say that the rear door lock does stick from time to time and if I clear this fault code it comes back once I lock and unlock the car.  I have not issues with the window motor or function that seems fine.

I should add my GTI is a 57Reg if that makes any difference.

TIA
Paul

The window motor/module is what controls the rear door lock thats what the fault code is stored in (black box attached to motor) you need a new/2nd hand rear door lock which you have to take the outer door skin off to replace

the safe motor is the dead lock motor/solenoid on its way out, thats whats throwing up the fault

pjuster:
ok thanks that makes some sense and might be a slightly easier replacement (than messing with the glass/winding mechanisim)

How do I know which part number is correct for a new/2nd hand rear door lock, as thats not listed on the vag com (sorry being a newbie)

This looks correct, but just a bit nervous of buying something based on them telling me it will fit !

thanks again

SI-R32:
your ebay link is the correct part number mate, all looks good to me, before someone says its from china and may be cheap, VW are in partnership with FAW in china making VW's out there so a lot of these parts are from them

i'd defo buy it 30 quid for new one fyi 146 ish quid from VW over here

pjuster:
brilliant, thanks for the speedy response and from what you'vwe said before its quite "dumb" and won't need coding.

Thanks

Paul
