MK7 and VCDS (VAG-COM) thread

[GrahamFR]

do they still come on with the flash as well or is it one or the other cos tbh id rather it come on with a flash as that'd look cooler

Edit - apologies, Yes you can have both but you need to combine the previous instructions to do so, change 4 adaption channels:

Adaptation Channel                          Old Value    New Value    
(8 )-Leuchte12NL LB45-Lichtfunktion C 12    not active    Left high beam    (constant high beam)
(9)-Leuchte12NL LB45-Lichtfunktion D 12    not active    Lichthupe generell (Flash high beam)

(8 )-Leuchte13NL RB5-Lichtfunktion C 13     not active    Right high beam    
(9)-Leuchte13NL RB5-Lichtfunktion D 13            not active    Lichthupe generell

Just tried the first set of instructions for operation with high beam but no fog lights came on - the commands were all accepted.... I don't seem to be able to get anything to work first time with VCDS....

Does this require a re-set in the vehicle lighting menu (ie; the normal one via the head unit) in the same way the indicator comfort flash adjust does?

[valvebounce]

Yes I know what you mean, VCDS is flaky now and again. I just did this from scratch and it worked without the need to reset the light settings on the CMStouch screen menu. Did you close the controller fully before disconnecting or switching off the ignition? Have you set the light intensity to 127 on these 2 channels too?:
(10)-Leuchte12NL LB45-Dimmwert CD 12 and (10)-Leuchte13NL RB5-Dimmwert CD 13

Thanks guys.

Valvebounce - thank you for that but I am confused now!

I managed to sort out the DRL to 100% issue so thats all fine now thanks.

The problem was with the fog lights on with high beam as detailed by Sootchucker at the foot of the previous page. I will give it another go later on and report back...

Some awesome new tweaks there.  Keep'em coming 

I have just done the fogs lights when you flash main beam (only) and the full rear brake lights.  Looks the nuts.

I wanna make a couple more changes:

- CAN gateway controller [19] and enable the check mark on Byte [8] Bit [4]

- '08 - HVAC', then to Byte 11 and tick bit 6

but Im a bit confused on what I actually do when I go into CAN gateway 19 or 08 HVAC.  It may be that I am missing something obvious but were do I then go to get to byte 11 to tick bit 6 for example?

Thanks

You open the controller, either 19 or 8, press the 'coding' button, then the 'long coding helper' button, then move along the boxes until it reads byte 11, then tick/unstick the bit 6 box. Exit the screen and you should see the current and new long code, one of the numbers in the string should be different in the new coding box. Press 'do it' and it will be applied. Best to copy the original number before you apply just in case you need to revert. If you want screenshots, see here, this is an excellent reference site:

Thanks.  All done.  I was a button click away from pressing 'long coding helper' but thought I would ask rather than mess something up!
