MK7 and VCDS (VAG-COM) thread

How strange, that's all I had to change for it to stay on for my car. It could well be different for right hand drive markets?

Can you confirm that when you lock the car the CH lights are on?

If so, you might try Parklicht links (beidseitiges Parklicht aktiviert li & re) instead. You have the right channel.

Let me know if this works and I'll update the VCDS wiki to reflect it. I'll try this also. If we can get one solution for both left and right hand drive markets that would be much better.

Maybe, I did the Parklicht rechts and it didn't work. I will try Parklicht links (beidseitiges Parklicht aktiviert li & re) tonight. Hopefully it works I am going to share the result in here. If you reach another solution i want to hear

I tried Parklicht links (beidseitiges Parklicht aktiviert li & re) yesterday night but it didn't work again for left hand drive. How can I stay on my LEDS open when I lock the door? Do you have another idea?

Hello everybody 

I have a mk7 2013 model.
I just installed a cable set for the footwell lights. I was easy to do whit the manual.
I have coded it just ant now the menu in the radio is on for adjusting the light.
But the light is not working?

Can somebody help me pleas how to coding the footwell lights?

[itavaltalainen]

how have you coded it? what exactly did you activate?

In group 9 long coding.

Dont no nr of the byte but there was calling footwell lights installed. I did selectd that.

[Golfmk7]

Maybe something also needed to activated also in adaption ?

[itavaltalainen]

Highly likely, I might check on mine later on.

[itavaltalainen]

which byte did you enable them in??

there is 2 labels where it says footwell lights installed....
on mine
Byte 5 x Bit 7 = 0 (footwelll lights installed)
and
Byte 17 x Bit 3 = 1 (ambient footwell lights installed)

also make sure that
in adaptation you have
'(1) ambient lighting defaultwert ambienteprofil fussraum' on a reasonable value (mine says 50%)
'(6) Ambient lighting - innenlichtinszenierung' on enabled (but that might be for other interior as well!)

when you changed it to this try the output tests....
there is one test for 'footwell light'

good luck

Thanxs a lot.
Thats the same coding that i have turned on. But they are still not working. When i run output test it says not available. Is there maybe a fuse that i have to mount in to the fusebox after installing the footwell cable set?

Hope someone can help me

where did you get the parts? you said there were instructions with it?
maybe you have a link to that?

maybe post a full auto scan here (attach a text file)
