Lock, no churpy now

When I lock my MKV Jetta now the alarm is not churping/ beeping anymore. The doors lock but no beep. The led is still turning on on the door. Its on solid, seems like it was blinking before (I can't remember). Is this telling me something? A search here didn't help.

Most likely one of the doors is not locking.
Or one of the doors lost communication with the central module
Need to scan with VCDS. It will tell you exactly which door is the problem.
This also happens when the trunk/hood are not closed and you engage the alarm (you get a trunk open/hood open msg when starting car)

Thanks I'll check that.

Bad door latch. More specific, a bad microswitch in one of them. Not getting the "I am locked" signal to the CCM.

Scan tool will allow you to see which one is not reporting the correct data. It will not set a DTC generally.

Sounds good, it'll give me an excuse to open my vcds and try it out.

Just go into the #46 convenience module, and go to Measuring Blocks, and scroll through until you find the ones that show the door lock status and door open status. You'll find one that is incorrect. Even if that latch actually locks and unlocks, the CCM may not know that.
