dq1 Posted October 14, 2005 Report Share Posted October 14, 2005 A3 1.8T 2000 (x reg), should my DIS display a warning if the driver's door is open? Does it for the passenger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Posted October 14, 2005 Report Share Posted October 14, 2005 I'd say yes.... my old Golf which was a Y reg used to. If it does it for the passenger side, then it should do for the drivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a18eem Posted October 14, 2005 Report Share Posted October 14, 2005 hi, yes the display should show which ever door is open,left/right/back.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ari Posted October 15, 2005 Report Share Posted October 15, 2005 Yup. I had a 2000 A3 1.8T quattro and I know that did cos I had the opposite problem, it wouldn't go off (unless you really slammed the door). Fault with the door pin that senses the door closed apparently, probably the same with yours but the other way around (ie pin stuck in so doesn't sense the door open).

Dallan Posted October 22, 2005 Report Share Posted October 22, 2005 Hi....... just found this chat forum. Have 2001 S3.with a problem in the same field as above. When I close (firmly) the driver's door the DIS display shows the door still to be open. The white and red lights remain lit on the bottom and 'B' post part of the door. Previous chat mentions a 'pin sticking' in the door locking mechanism. Is this fixable by oneself or is it a dealer job? If an <font color="blue"> </font> yone's had this problem and sorted it - What did you do? Thanx. D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
