Where does that vent tube supposed to go?

I was much lazier than you. I just cut the wires to the actuator and spliced the new one in. but don't tell anybody...

I already had two failures of these ridiculous devices. I opened the actuator and deleted the electric lock, which ends up binding and failing, so that the cap always functions manually. Problem solved permanently.

I have a 2021 Passat and the gas flap opens when the doors are locked or unlocked. Was told by the dealer and VW corporate in Virginia that they no longer have a locking gas flap. When the dealer took it apart, the actuator did not have any electrical connections! Looking into it further. Great video and I'm sure its helpful for others.

Thanks for posting - I just did this repair in under 10 mins by cutting the wire to the old one and the new one and just splicing back together.. Eliminates tearing the trunk apart and all the fishing of the wires. Worked great!

In this ase the rotating lock pin has been removed however if it sticks, I have a very simply fix once you understand what the issue is. The rotating shaft has an o- ring behind to prevent ingress of water to the electrical portion. After 5 years or so it gets dry and binds the shaft. Solution is simply, get a cotton bud and apply some brake fluid to the shaft then operate it in and out to lubricate the O-ring. Problem solved. First check that the central locking does work on the door (test)

Do you know if this works on a 2018 mk7.5 Golf ? I need help

I can’t even get mine open to see the actuator.

Hi, I am having the same issue but I couldn't get that how you reached the plug from inside the trunk. Could you explain it with a few words ?

RUclips literally has everything. My buddy borrowed my car and snapped the door off trying to pry it open. I loaned it to him with a full tank of gas and he was trying to top it off as a thank you

You saved my car. Thank you

thank you so much! I just fixed my fuel cap on my passat and your video helped me so much!

Thank you!!! I’ve searched a lot before find your video! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

How did you open the cover? Did the actuator break when you Opened it ?

I have the same issue! But mine is saloon version. And it doesn't have the torx screw... Tried pulling it out can't. Can't find any articles about that issue so I figured to ask you. How do I get the fuel door out?

Amen

Is this the same procedure for 2019 vw Jetta GLI ????

Thank you

Thank you for this video. I got same problem with 2016 Passat.

It would be nice to see the unplugging of the old, and plugging of the new. Why did you leave that bit out ?

I took a trip to the junkyard paid only six bucks and did everything on my own

How can I reach you i have the Same problem

I have the same Vichy problem.thanks for showing me how to get that repaired

Yeah, I also got quoted over $200 to fix this on my 2013 Passat. I declined service and they still charged me $78 to open the stuck gas tank flap. 2 minutes of work. Bunch of thieves.

Thank you for video. I have same issue with my Passat . I got a new part and planing to work on my car. Now I knew have to do it. Thanks allot. Keep posting some good videos about Passat. Cheers

Hey man, glad you did a short video on this verse. Many people like myself fall under such category. Sometimes we forgot that worship is unto The Lord and no one else. I'm glad I came across this video. May God bless you, your ministry and your church.
