Passenger door issue
Posted: Mon Jun 29, 2026 4:48 pm
Hi All,
This is my first post on here - I have recently bought a Polo 1.2 match 2014 model and didn't think to check all the doors when i went to pick it up.
The passenger door is confusing me, I can unlock it using the fob and can hear it functioning, how ever the handle on the outside does not do anything.
I can open it from inside the vehicle, however this is a pain.
I have replaced the actuator, believing this would fix it, but it hasnt changed anything.
What confused me even more, was when i fitted the new part, the door functioned perfectly as it should, how ever when i then locked the vehicle and tried to open it, it wouldn't work again.
Has anybody else had this problem, or anybody able to shed any light on the issue?
