away from the body.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen the sliding door closes, the corresponding contact points meet and restore the required electrical connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eVW wiring information identifies 6-pin contact holders T6al and T6bl within the left sliding-door
