Drivers door lock blinking red

Hi, My name is Dan.

Generally in VW cars when the indicator on the driver's door blinks, it means the car is locked and the perimeter alarm is set and armed. usually when you lock the doors with the remote, the LED does not turn on until approximately 4 minutes later, then it blinks to show the alarm is set.

Have you found the key or obtained a replacement? If not then that is where we are going to have to start. If you unlock the vehicle using a metal key in the door, the system should disarm and you will be fine.

Here is a guide that will help with disarming these units that may give good info for you.
