VW Transporter

4.38 metres

Hi, I have same problem, I thought at 1st it was the alarm system but after enqueries I am told commonly the circuit under the driver seat runs under the mat and can short out due to wet or corroded points of contact.... I am in the proces of figuring out how the seat can be removed... I suggest you take a look... My source is a VW specialist..

I suggest you 1st make sure the key fob battery is ok and of course check the fuse.........Hope its of some use?

T In T4 Stands For Teenager and 4 is because it is owned by Channel 4.

If you are under the car you can clearly see it. It's a bit to right hand side. Covered slightly by the metal/plastic cover under the engine.

If you want to replace it - it can be best to remove the cover under the engine compartment. Will take a bit of time, but it will prevent you from dripping oil on it when you change the filter.

It will only take like 10-15 minutes to change the oil and filter.

The filter contain a bit of oil, so when you change the oil, you can add a bit extra to fill up the filter. The T4 use some oil all the time, so remember to check it regularly.

I am about to replace the back section of my ignition switch from my 1995 VW T4 camper, it is what normally the part that will no longer make contact to start your van, you can buy just that unit and not the whole switch. this means that you do not have to worry about the security built in not working anymore, I hope. Follow the info on the following link, it will help, C:\Documents and Settings\Customer\My Documents\VWvortex Forums new ignition switch install.mht, have fun, Peter.

BBAASPENCER here in TN. This is how to roll it forward for access.Roll the engine forward is to take off the engine dog bones, put gear in neutral, attach a pulling strap to the engine and hoist and roll it until you gain access.

there is a bolt on the alternator bracket for adjusting the belt tension and you take that bolt out. then feel under the alternator and there is another boltthat mounts the alternator to the engine. if you turn this it will just spin you need to put a wrench on the nut on the other side of the bolt. i had to loosen the whole top bracket to get the alternator out of the tight space or you could also remove the bottom rad hose for some space to take it out. i am 18 and figured it out in about 20 mins its really not too hard.
