Restore complete control over your vehicle’s cabin comfort with the Genuine Volkswagen Driver’s Door Window Switch Pack (Part Number: 5K4959857AXSH). Designed specifically for the 4-door variants of the Golf Mk 5 and Mk 6, this master control unit ensures that your window operation remains smooth, responsive, and reliable. When your master switches begin to fail—manifesting as sticking buttons or unresponsive windows—this authentic OEM replacement is the definitive fix to return your vehicle to factory-standard performance.

Product Overview

The master window switch pack is the command center for your vehicle’s side windows. Over time, internal contacts can degrade due to heavy usage, leading to intermittent functionality. This Genuine Volkswagen (OEM) switch pack is a direct factory replacement, featuring the correct internal circuitry to handle all four windows, child safety locks, and mirror adjustments. By choosing an original part, you guarantee that the button feel, lighting intensity, and electronic compatibility are exactly as Volkswagen intended when the car left the factory.

Compatibility & Fitment

This master switch pack is engineered specifically for the 4-door configurations of the Volkswagen Golf Mk 5 and Mk 6.

• Vehicle Compatibility:

  • Volkswagen Golf Mk 5 [1K] (4-Door Models)

  • Volkswagen Golf Mk 6 [5K] (4-Door Models)

• OEM Part Number: 5K4959857AXSH

• Position: Driver’s Door Master Control

• Finish: Soft-Touch Black (XSH)

Important Note: As this unit controls multiple electronic features (such as child locks and electric mirror adjustments), compatibility is dependent on your vehicle’s specific equipment. Please verify your current part number or provide your VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) to our team prior to ordering to ensure this unit is fully compatible with your specific configuration (e.g., auto-fold mirror options).

Performance & Aesthetic Benefits

• Full 4-Door Functionality: Seamlessly manages all four windows and child-safety window locking.

• Factory-Match Lighting: Features the authentic red LED backlighting, ensuring a consistent look with your dashboard and instrument cluster.

• Tactile Precision: Provides the correct “click” and travel distance for each button, avoiding the loose or “mushy” feel of aftermarket alternatives.

• Durability: Built to last for millions of cycles, resistant to the wear-and-tear of daily interaction.

• Plug-and-Play Integration: Directly matches your existing door wiring harness—no coding or modification typically required.

Build Quality & Engineering

When you purchase Genuine Volkswagen Electronic Components, you are buying into German engineering. This switch pack is sealed against common interior hazards like spilled beverages and accumulated dust, which often cause “ghost” window operation in inferior, unsealed aftermarket switches. The “XSH” finish is an official Volkswagen color code, ensuring the unit integrates seamlessly into your door card without appearing mismatched.

Installation

The replacement of the 5K4959857AXSH unit is a quick process:

1. Use a plastic trim removal tool to gently pry the switch assembly up from the door card.

2. Unplug the main wiring harness from the back of the old unit.

3. Connect your new Genuine VW switch pack.

4. Test all window functions and mirror controls before snapping the assembly back into the door card.

• Safety Note: Perform this installation with the ignition turned off to prevent any electrical shorting or system errors.
