Fix or install door ajar warning lamp mk6

Postby 4door4 » Sat Aug 19, 2017 2:35 am

I can't find a warning lamp to show if a door is ajar.

The side door has some contacts as well as a button, and the remote locking won't work if the back doors are open. I tried shining a bright light behind the instrument cluster to check for faulty warning lamps (they might be LED anyway) but none of the symbols look like door ajar. Should my van have one? It's a mk6 tddi 5 speed but it has the updated instrument cluster with a digital odometer that came out a year or two before the change to tdci and 6 speed. Eg the clock is in the instrument cluster instead of above the radio.

If not then has anyone installed one? Where would I look for the wiring that monitors the door status? Finding it under the dash would be easier than running new wires to the doors or installing new door switches. It would be useful to have a warning for the back doors at least, since I can't see them from the drivers seat.

mk6 doesnt have a dash warning for the door, the interior lights are on if the door is ajar, look at the lights :D
