I have a 2001 Golf and have used vag com to set the horn to honk with the lock or unlock button on the remote.

The problem I have is that it does not honk when I push the lock button, it only honks when the unlock button is pushed.

I can make the single chip from the horn work but only if I lock the doors manually from the outside with the key.

If I lock the doors with the remote and leave the windows down the alarm will sound if I open any of the doors by reaching inside. It will not sound if I openj the hood during the same conditions.

I am lead to believe that the hood switch may be faulty but do not know where it is located.

On a different subject I have two wires going into the hood where the windsheild washer fluid hose goes into it, could this possibly be for heated washer nozzles?

On my 03 it is located in the latch. I will try to take a pic later. I have to go out to move snow later anyway.
