dv52 108 Report post Posted August 12, 2018 decca: do you have access to a diagnostic cable - perhaps some one near-by has one (like VCDS, or ODB11). It would help to get a more definitive error message. At face value, purely a guess - sounds like a faulty light switch - but a cable would confirm my hunch - or not Don Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DEKA1967 15 Report post Posted September 6, 2018 Well ended up taking the car to my local VW Stealership Fault was wiring behind the dash was shorting out which was causing the headlight on off switch to burn out All fixed nowBut my wallet is £430 lighterSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Charles M 784 Report post Posted September 6, 2018 Dodgy wiring harness loom to me is a manufacturing fault. How old is your car? Had it with a 5 series once when I was in the middle of France. Shorting out and blew 5 of my cylinders while I limped home (the garage was a little surprised that I actually made it!). Got a good will payment, not that I was particularly happy with that - 7hink it was a £1600 bill rather than £2500 or somewhat similar. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dv52 108 Report post Posted February 20, 2020 ^^^^ have you checked the wiring harness at the rear of the rotary light switch )(it's called "LDS)? It's real easy to remove the LDS - see video link below Look for faulty wiring, bent pins etc Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bogdan1106 1 Report post Posted February 20, 2020 Every thing is ok.Also, I have checked with vcds and it's working.. I think it's a problem with the BCM. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
