I dont know anything about these, my Van came with them when new but they were taken out by the first owner in 09, however I would start looking at dirt or debris in the tracks as its coming up with pinch protection so it may be overloading the expected resistance when closing the door, just a guess

 

Will look at later (make sure they're squeaky clean). Thing is the door no longer power closes- doesn't even try and light flashing. 🤔

 

I suspect that the most worrying fault code may be 02356 - there is a contactless data transfer pickup at the top of the door and if that has a fault then AFAIK the door simply won't operate. IIRC the pinch sensor is built into the front part of the door seal. It's probably not easily repairable and would have to be replaced, though you can probably wire around it (with care) for testing purposes.

 

This will likely be the door pinch sensor. I had a similar issue with one of my doors. I'd totally forgotten that I'd repaired mine and made a little explanatory video Here (but forgot to video the actual fix, which is breaking into the door rubber and re-affixing the wires to the strip (or, I guess you can replace the strip, but it was £60 2 years ago))
My other door appears to work fine, but I have the flashing switch light and your post has made me think that perhaps it has the same issue, so I'll be checking that ASAP.

 

Hey, amazing...!

Thanks so much, will investigate

Cheers 👍

 

I had same problem on my 2009 t5 kombi. it was the door pinch strip .it had broken the green wire inside the rubber about 3 inches from the bottom . I tried to solder it first but the solder would not stick to the wire so it used a strip connector and some high temp black gasket glue to repair where I had cut into the rubber to expose the wire . works a treat and you can't see the repair .
