Title: VAG COM coding for stock rear lights?
Post by: danski on 02 July 2012, 12:59
Yello.

So it looks like I`m going to have to sell the GTD  :cry:
Really dont want to, but 2 Great Danes just dont fit in the boot and I cant afford to have a car JUST for the dogs.

Any-road-up, just spent my lunch seraching for the original coding from when I added the R LED rear lights and cant seem to find it anywhere. I did write down how it was when I fitted them, but cant find it now.

Can anyone help, please?

Car is an early (registered Feb) 2010 GTD with halogen headlights if that helps any.

Cheers
Dan.

Can't you just get a very cheap car or a little van for the dogs. My father-in-law has had a banger for taking his 3 red setters in for years. He does around 6,000 miles a year taking the dogs to the beach or woods twice a day and reckons the mileage saved on his "proper" car, pay to run the dogmobile.

If the GTD has to go, will your LED's be up for sale?  :wink:

He-he, yes the LEDs will be up for sale, sooner rather than later, already had one email asking about them too, and I need the money for removing the map and switching the reg over.
Already have the dogmobile, its a Caddy maxi life, so staying with dubs for it, had it for about 6 months and was doing fine affording both, but all of a sudden the finances have crept up on me and everything seems to be costing twice as much.
Not happy about it, but needs must.

I am pretty sure the coding for Halogen front/standard rear is 02


HERE (http://www.thewindinglane.co.uk/images/mk6gti/lights/Byte18.pdf) is a pdf of all the options  :shocked:

VW360 is the Golf..
RDW is rest of the world
TFL_0_LED is LED DRLs
TFL_0  is Standard Bulb DRLs
LED_SBBR is rear LEDs

eg. VW360 GTI Halogen "VW360 RdW TFL_0_LED + LED_SBBR"  would be

Golf with Halogen HEadlights
Area is rest of the world,
LED DRLs
LED rears.

That's like the can sheets I have as a list at work.

Try this Dan (from Glen's thread)

40180A3ED827F1C0448800846400892443550088736D8D60648000200000

Standard Xenon coding - I think!
Off - Xenons as DRLs, no rear lights on.
Auto - Xenons as DRLs, no rear lights on.
Sidelights - sidelights on, no Xenons, inner and outer standard rears.
On - sidelights + Xenons on, inner + outer standard rears, foglight OK, brake lights OK, no bulb warning.

Yes it's a bit mad, not helped by the same thing twice on each line.  :smiley:

I added a bit more of what I think on the other post.

I would recomend to never copy someone's complete coding.

00 is a cover digit hiding the actual number. Until about a year ago vw hid the actual coding like this.

Hi guys, thanks for the info, I`ll let y`all know how I get on at the weekend.


For all who are interested in my LEDs, I will reply to all the PMs when they`re off, I`m thinking about £350 for the full set with the cables too, the post wasnt really about trying to sell them  :smiley:

I just removed the LED tails from my 2009 118TSI and put them on my new GTI. Byte 18 has a drop down box that has one of the options of light reset. I just selected that and all the error messages went away and the standard lights all worked fine.
