Wonder if anyone can throw some light on this?I own a 97/98 passat tdi,when i first aquired the vehicle all the central locking etc worked fine off the keyfob.Two days later,keyfob would not open doors?,but key would from drivers side.Note battery is fine in keyfob.Okay,this worked fine for a day. The following day i open the drivers door with the key and that and the boot are the only doors opening .Now i have a major problem in that the rear doors have the childlocks on and i cannot now open them,note have tried the switch on drivers side door handle.Anyone any ideas as to how to get the rear doors open and what the fault may be?Oh and just for good measure any one help,my petrol flap wont open,have just bought new switch but no joy! .Any help would be greatly appreciated,before i decide to set fire to the car in a sacrificial offering to volkswagen.
