Hi, I’m Mike from 1A Auto. We’ve been selling auto parts for over 30 years!
In this video, we are going to show you how to remove and replace a driver's side window switch in a 2010 Volkswagen GTI. We're going to pull this window switch out. We're going to pull this trim cover. We're going to use these tools, these special trim tools. You can buy these at 1aauto.com.
Fish right in here. This is really not easy to do. Use two. Get in here. Push it in, and there's these clips on the side here, you need to release them. Being careful not to break anything. And it'll make a noise like that when it releases. Go up near the top, here, and then there's another one. There's one more down in the back, here. See these four clips? Turn the back side, and we're going to go over to our switch, disconnect the connector, and push this little tab. Pull out. Disconnect the mirror switch. You're going to push down on the connector, on the lock. Going to use a flat-blade screwdriver to pop this out. Little tabs in here, just pry it back a little bit. Over on this side. Going to use two. Keep one on this side. Help us unlock it. Apply a little bit of pressure from the front, there we go. Came right out.
This is our old window switch, this is our new window switch from 1aauto.com. As you can see, the connectors are the same, the actual switch itself looks slightly different, but it will be the same purpose, and you can get yours at 1aauto.com and you'll be ready to rock and roll.
All right, we're going to install the window switch into our trim piece. Just going to slide it in. Use a little bit of force, lock it in, make sure all the locks are in, and it's good. Now we're going to reinstall our trim piece into our door panel. Going to install the mirror switch connector, push it in until it locks in, and install our window switch connector, line up the connector and push in until it locks. I'm going to slide, there's a gap right here that you have to line up with the door panel, then you're going to push it straight down. All right, we're going to test our window switch. And it works. It works in automatic. And automatic down, no programming required.
