Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • Trunk actuator

    Hey guys my boot actuator isn’t getting any power (all my other doors open). The actuator itself works when I use a 9v battery. I looked at the wiring but everything looks good. I even tapped into the wiring from the furthest point into the car wiring and tapped a 9 v battery in just to make sure I wasn’t crazy and it worked. Now my question is where does the wiring go ? I am assuming either the nearest door or directly into the comfort control module.

    From memory the wire often gets damaged just after it leaves the boot and into the body.
    I had a similar situation on my bora after swapping boot lids over.
