VW Golf MK7 stuck fuel door?
Then came the day when I did not get to open the charging door on my e-Golf. This has been a known issue for many VW owners. Especially challenging for us who drive an electric car, and must charge at least once per. days now in the winter.
The problem seems to be due to water intrusion into the activator / locking system. Water enters, which freezes.
I managed to thaw with a heat gun, and got charged. But when I had to close the lid again, I did not get it to lock again.
After some checking online, I found the part in Germany! I bought here: [ Ссылка ] (I do not earn anything from sending you to this dealer, but just want to help!) I have also seen that you can find the cheaper ones from China, but there have been so many shipping problems, that I did not want to wait that long!
Need for tools:
Plastic crowbar
Torx T15 + T25
A small flat iron to get on rubber sealing again.
If it is stated that many VW and Skoda use the same part + many are almost exactly the same. Some cars do not have to be dismantled inside, as the couplings are inside the filling hatch (behind the rubber seal)

Da kom dagen da jeg ikke fikk til å åpne ladeluken på min e-Golf. Dette har vært et kjent problem for veldig mange VW eiere. Spesielt utfordrende for oss som kjører elbil, og må lade minst en gang pr. døgn nå på vinteren.
Problemet ser ut til å komme av vann inntrenging i aktivatoren / låsesystemet. Det kommer inn vann, som fryser.
Jeg klarte å tine opp med varmepistol, og fikk ladet. Men da jeg skulle lukke lokket igjen, så fikk jeg ikke det til å gå i lås igjen.
Etter en del sjekking på nett, så fant jeg delen i Tyskland! Jeg kjøpte her: [ Ссылка ] ( jeg tjener ingen ting på å sende dere til denne forhandleren, men vil bare hjelpe! ) Jeg har også sett at man finner de billigere fra Kina, men det har vært så mye problemer med frakt, at jeg ikke ønsket å vente så lenge!
Behov for verktøy:
Plast brekkjern
Torx T15 + T25
Et lite flattjern til å få på gummitetting igjen.
Ser det oppgis at mange VW og Skoda benytter samme del + mange er tilnærmet helt likt. Noen biler slipper man å demontere innvendig, da koblingene ligger inne i fylleluka ( bak gummi tettingen )

The videos show what I have done, and the result does not always have to be as desired. Sometimes things go directly wrong, and then I try to find out what went wrong, and try to set a better example so that others will not have to make the same mistake as me.
The videos were filmed by myself, and it may have been unknowingly missing to include ALL the details. I try my best to find out what I do and what I find out. But getting cameras in the right places is not always easy!
Very important!!! Do not take any chances with safety, neither your own nor anyone else's! Never work under a car, without and double security. Things can happen, so you must always have extra safety in case something should break or overturn, etc.
Working on cars poses a danger no matter what. So be aware, and if you do not feel 100% sure of the result, rather ask others to help you or double check what you have done, before you expose yourself and others to danger!
