I did this to my former Golf 7 2014 Variant. This means stand light rear including instrument / dashboard light:

1. Select 09 – Cent. Elect.
2. Select 16 – Security Access
3. Input Security Code 31347 Click DO IT! And yes if it brings up other boxes
4. Select 10 – Adapation
5. Choose from drop down – (6)-Tagfahrlicht-Tagfahrlicht-Dauerfahrlicht aktiviert zusaetzlich Standlicht
6. Set Value to Active

Okay i plugged in today a foxwell reader but it only gives me the option for coding not long coding helper yet when i plug it into a audi it does could anyone else please??

 

[black_sheep]

It depends on the age of the car... from 2016 (ish) onwards certain VAG control models can only be coded with the latest versions of VCDS cable and/or coded via adaptation maps only.

 

[Luke1999]

Its 2014 so basically the reader shows up long coding helper on a 2011 audi but not on my 2014 leon

 

[Luke1999]

Like i can still code just dont have the helper which make it harder as i cant find the full codes anywhere to just put in

 

[black_sheep]

Yes, 2014 should be ok. I’m afraid I have no prior knowledge of coding on the Foxwell coder - only thing I can think of is that you need to enter the security code (31347) for the 09 central electric module to unlock it before coding on MQB cars (2013 onwards).

If you are based in NE England, then I’d be more than happy to assist with coding via VCDS.

I’m pretty certain that there are 2 different ways to code the rear lights as DRLs too - the way described above leaves the submarine lights in the front upper console on permanently too as far as I can remember - I coded this on an a Leon ST about 4 years ago, but then had to re-code each of the rear lights individually to stop this happening.

Do you have a very old version of VCDS? The latter begins with 18 in the version number. Current is 18.9.0. With old I mean >5 years, before the MQB model was intruduced.

Sorry but is it VCDS you have? Foxwell is not my table .

Can i jusr check when on the ross tech site what interface of vcds do i need as im gonna just get the actual vcds for my laptop cheers

 

[Luke1999]

Plus what cable do yous all use for connecting car to laptop cheers

 

[Deleted member 103408]

If you dont have the right cables have you looked at OBD11 or Carista to make changes to the car.

VCDS includes the cable and software but it costs about £300 min, if you have an Android device I would recommend OBDeleven Pro rather than Carista.

 

[Luke1999]

Okay will OBDeleven allow for coding using long code reader?

I don't use it myself but I think it does, but may only be on the Pro version.

 

[Deleted member 103408]

Yes its only the Pro Version that allows long coding, the only issue is the Description of the long coding is user defined so dependant on how old your car is it may or may not help.

As an example check out this post http://forum.obdeleven.com/thread/3262/control-unit-setup

 

[Luke1999]

Its 2014 so i would imagine it is
