Cornering lights.

[Mikeyfraser]

Hi I don't think my cornering fog lights work on my mk2 leon 09. Would there be a reason why they wouldn't be working?

not sure they were fitted on your year?
if they were its possibly a long coding issue

 

[Mikeyfraser]

How would you resolve this issue or can't you?

Have you owned the car from new? If not the previous owner probably had them turned off as most people dislike them.

If you did own the car from new and they weren't on then it's probably not an option on your car as I believe it's set as on by default.

I got the car second hand and near been on. Saw a setting in the menu that I thought it might be.

Just do the opposite of what was described here I guess to reinstate them.

Brings nothing to the table in honesty which is why most people turn them off.

I think the bigger question is 'Why do you want them to work?' most people get them turned off cos it looks like you have a blown fog light. When I collected my car from the dealer I told them to turn my cornering lights off.

 

[Crafoo]

I'm sort of impartial, I really don't care either way, what annoys me most is people using them as indicator replacements.

 

[Mikeyfraser]

I would just like them on. I'm upgrading my fog lights bulbs anyway. Each to there own at the end of the day. Cheers mate. Will get looking into it.

 

[Jarre]

Indeed. I imagine the previous owner had them turned off. Should just be a case of re activating them.

 

[Mikeyfraser]

Do you need vagcom to put them back on?

 

[Jarre]

Yeah you will do. Do you have access to it? If not where are you based?

 

[Mikeyfraser]

Yeah I can get it from a mate who has it. If I didn't I'm based in fife. Cheers tho.

Not exactly around the corner from me then lol, at least you have access to it though!

 

[Mikeyfraser]

Yeah if not you can buy it online quite cheap so might have done that. Cheers for the offer tho. Any help is good help.

Yeah you can, just make sure you don't connect it to the internet otherwise you'll destroy it! I have a fully licensed Rosstech one.

 

[Crafoo]

Worth knowing that a lot of these cheap cables are that successful though bud

 

[Mikeyfraser]

How much are this Ross tech ones? Will keep that in mind for future reference.

About £250 from memory I think.

£265 inc VAT and delivery. I got the one with the adaptors for older vehicles so it was £307 inc VAT an delivery. It's a big initial outlay but second hand they all retrieve over £200. So the real cost of owning one isn't that much greater than owning a cheap Chinese copy that doesn't allow updates
