Lupo Central Locking and Electric windows

Just like to say thanks for the help with this, worked like a charm!

I have the same problem with my wifes 2001 Polo.

Got the new bits to fix it, but cannot for the life of me work out how it is supposed to go back together. I know roughly, but cannot get spring in right position or decide if it matters which way round the 3 tab'd ring goes etc.

Can anyone help and please can you send me the diagram (kevdodd@hotmail.com)?? Thanks

I have just been reading about this and it seams that I am not the only one to have lock problems. I could do with a copy of that diagram please and to know how to unlock a door from the inside when the key is jammed in the dead lock position i.e. 90 degrees anticlockwise. I turned the key and it locked solid and snapped something as I forced it to the vertical. Now it won’t budge. I am in the car and hade the upper card off but cannot open the door. Any help would be great. Lupo 1.4 Sport 2001

From memory, If you can open the door you need remove the top trim panel, loosen the central locking unit and remove the door handle (it'll come out with the key still in it). Disassemble the unit and order one of these - make sure it's the right side & car! It's not often the barrel of the lock breaks in VWs - it's usually the alloy carrier or the paddle.

Follow this to reassemble and refit.

I hope that helps a little.

Thanks. My problem is that the lock jammed in the dead lock position (if there is one) and I cannot open the door. Thanks for your reply.
