VCDS Help?

Post by EdenBanim »

Hi!
I've just installed aftermarket headlights on my 2011 6R which uses LEDs as parking light and on the indicator lights and as expected - I got a bulb error on the cluster.
I replaced most of the bulbs to led and just used VCDS to disable the bulb diagnosis via the "Long coder helper" but there is no option to disable the parking light\ front indicators via the helper..

I searched this forum and other sources but didn't find any related information.
Maybe someone here knows how to do it?

Thanks!

There is no option to disable the parking light or indicator diagnostics, unfortunately.

So I'm stuck with the error light?
Is there a way to disable it completely? or any other solution?

Dont those headlights come with a resistor?
Resistor, or splice in a halogen bulb and hide it away.

revert to halogen bulbs for parking light at the rear and indicator all around

The error light turn on only when I installed the headlights, they were plug-and-play and they don't have any resistor on them (at least on the outside).
Low and high beam are halogen.

Maybe someone knows which pins on the headlight socket are for the parking light and indicators so I can put resistors on them?
