Full Beam on a Mk3 Gti 16v
« on: 03 March 2010, 20:54 »
Hi all,

I presumed that to engage Full beam You would Pull the Light stalk towards the Driver as with my Audi and most Vag Group Cars But,
My Full beam does not "Stay Full" it just flashes which is useful for thanking people but not so good in the night time....... I replaced the Whole Stalk Unit (Indicators,Hazard,Wipers) and no change...

Any Advice would be greatly appreciated!

Just checked mine, (16V) to flash pull back, for full beam pull back untill it latches and stays on, will only latch if main lights are selected on the light switch
