Repair Volkswagen Passat B3-B4/Passat B3-B4>> Electric equipment>> Central lock



The system of the central lock is put in action by keys of opening of a door of the driver or passenger. At turn of a key the microswitch which is built in in the door handle becomes isolated and there is an operation of system. System of the central lock — pneumatic. The drive of activators on the fuel filter, on a back cover and on each of four doors is provided with compressed air. Microswitches in the door handle turn on the vacuum and delivery pump which is mounted in a luggage carrier. Locking and unlocking of activators happens at the influence of elevated pressure or vacuum created by the pump.
In case of refusal works of system at the serviceable pump leak in pipelines or malfunction of activators is the most probable cause.

       PREVENTION
If the vacuum and delivery pump works rather long time, there is its automatic switching off. If long time do not use system, then for start of the pump, perhaps, it is necessary to turn a key several times.
