I know I havn't posted in a while. Too many things happening including my Dad passing away at the young age of 55 last October, and a move up to Kent, WA (outside Seattle). Thank you to those who have kept in touch and helped me in many ways.
But I am having an issue with the GTI right now. For those that don't know, it's a 2002 1.8T.
I was out running an errand and someone let me know that my passenger brake light is out. Luckily enough I had an extra one at the house. When I got home I locked the car went into the house. I came out a few minutes later and used my FOB to release the trunk. I replaced the bulb. I unlocked the car with the FOB and turned on my parking and emergency lights just to check if I had to change anything else while I was in there. Everything was good and I put the bulb tray back in and closed up shop.
When I went to use the FOB to lock the car it wasn't working. I thought maybe it was the FOB, so I grabbed my spare and still nothing. I went to use the key in the door and it locked the doors, but then it immediately unlocked again. I tried using the lock button in the car and I got the same results. And when I close the trunk it is not automatically locking like it supposed to.
Any ideas on what I could of done and how I can fix it? TIA.
