DRL dots.
« on: 28 July 2019, 18:32 »
I can't believe I haven't seen these before but I noticed a GTD yesterday with extra dots on with the normal DRL U's. So I thought that must be a thing I can code myself with the obdeleven, did a bit of research and voila!

Anyone else running these?

I’m sure my 2013 GTI PP came out of the factory with the dots enabled.
I’ve never checked my Clubsport, I assumed it would have the same headlight function. Maybe not? I must get round to checking.

DRL Dots:

Connect with module "09 - central electric".
Go to adaptations and change values.
"Leuchte9FL RB2-Lichtfunction C 9" to "daytime running lights" or "tagfahrlicht"
"Leuchte9FL RB2-Dimmerwert CD 9" to 100 (max 127)
"Leuchte8FL LB39-Lichtfunction C 8" to "daytime running lights" or "tagfahrlicht"
"Leuchte8FL LB39-Dimmerwert CD 8" to 100 (max 127)

Use security access code 31347 when prompted.

Mine are now both on 100, I might try 127 tomorrow to see what that looks like as imho they are slightly overpowered by the standard U DRL's...

I don't think that's just a code...

Could be wrong though, anyone know?
