The Mystery Button

[Paul0988]

Hey guys,

Was wondering what the button is that is on the pillar next to the drivers door, I found the same on a passat i used to drive when worked on taxis but i have no idea what it does. Nothing shows up on dash when pressed. it looks like an upside down wifi signal button. Any ideas?

Cheers

Turn off interior sensor on alarm so you can leave pets in (with the windows down of course)?

ah I see handy thing that and of course only on days that the sun is blaring in but i refuse to leave pets in car anyway knowing my luck they would disengage the handy and it'd run away.

my alarm in the seat is a bit funny as well, if i unlock it (i have to use the key as the fob is knackered) and straight away open any other door or boot or bonnet and dont turn key in the ignition then the alarm goes bonkers.

It might not be, just a guess.

doesn't seem to do anything when you press it. how do you know whether you have disarmed the internal sensor or not?

 

[Paul0988]

nope and I've pressed it a few times and haven't noticed anything change and I haven't noticed any lights or beeps happen, haven't even noticed any sensors coming to think of it.

even seat do not no what the button does

 

[Paul0988]

Aye ah haven't seen anything at all about it in the book

It's covered in the handbook.

If you press the button before getting out and locking the car it will deactivate the interior sensors, there aren't any lights or beeps.

The only way to test it is to sit in the car, press the button and lock the doors with the remote, if you move around and the alarm goes off then, it doesn't work.
