Coding out "ERROR FREE" drl and parking lights!!!

So I have been researching for months now, and finally decided to do my first coding yesterday and it went successful. I went online and surprising found nothing on how to code these errors out so after I did some trial and error, I got them to no longer throw a code!!! This is what you need to code.

Daytime Running Lamps
Fembody
3061
TFL_L and TFL_R
KALT (Set to nicht_aktiv)
WARM (Set to nicht_aktiv)
LED (Set to aktiv)

Parking Lamps
Fembody
3061
POL_L and POL_R
KALT (Set to nicht_aktiv)
WARM (Set to nicht_aktiv)
LED (Set to aktiv)

If you put in aftermarket LEDs like I did in a halogen headlight, it will throw an error even tho it's supposed to be error free. Coding these will code out the errors whether its parking light or drl

Awesome! Better than putting on resistors that warm up. Thanks!

Parking light brightness

Guys, I read some cheat sheet to find how to adjust parking light brightness (halogen), but when I go to Esys and try to find it, there is no such code. Is it because of my psdzdata? I have v54.1

Hmm, the parameters should be there...

I had a look at the cheat sheet and the parameters you're looking for might be a little bit different.

For the left parking light, the parameter should be under Fembody 3062, and be called: MAPPING_PARKL_V_L_PWM_1_LEFT

For the right parking light, also in Fembody 3062, it should be: MAPPING_PARKL_V_R_PWM_2_RIGHT

You should see in their respective ausglesen folders, the voltages assigned to each of the bulbs (i think its 12.2V or something). Try altering the voltage/percentage output to your desired value. Unfortunately there isn't much potential for fine tuning the brightness here, but better than nothing i suppose.

For the front foglamp checks, in Fembody 3061, look for:

Left light

NSW_L_KALTUEBERWACHUNG - change to nicht_aktiv
NSW_L_WARMUEBERWACHUNG - change to nicht_aktiv
NSW_L_IS_LED - change to aktiv

Right light

NSW_R_KALTUEBERWACHUNG - change to nicht_aktiv
NSW_R_WARMUEBERWACHUNG - change to nicht_aktiv
NSW_R_IS_LED - change to aktiv

Thanks,

also was wondering about the fogs as cornering lights, but they seem to be in 3 stages? anybody know why they are?

I don't think this has been properly explained to be honest, but i think it's something to do with tricking the car into thinking it has adaptive headlamps (or something like that). The cornering foglamps only come as standard as a part of the adaptive headlights package. The C_CLC_ENA, C_BLC_ENA, KL_ENABLE_LI and KL_ENABLE_RE might be coding for the adaptive headlights, and the MAPPING_abbiegel_L_output and right output must be for the foglamps themselves (abbiegelicht means "cornering"). I think all these parameters are just dependent on each other in order for the cornering lamps to work.

Of course, your headlights won't begin to move like the adaptive ones after coding this. It just makes the car think it has them, which is why the cornering lamps work. If the first four parameters aren't coded, i don't think it works.

Thanks for the info, I coded all that but couldn't get the fogs to work, tried steering in full lock also with indicators on? nothing. So returned the coding to stock.

Also coded out the light checks for side/drl/fogs & enabled LED, turned on fog lights with welcome lights, the tyre temp/pressure monitor in the idrive (no values showing in there yet (HU_entry)) and 3 indicator flashes when locking.... ah & auto start/stop disabled by default.

1 thing I did want was the volume on the display when I change it, but couldn't find this, is it for HU_NBT only?

Hmm that's strange, it should work. I have it working on mine. Perhaps you missed out a parameter?

In Fembody:

3073 C_CLC_ENA > F030enable
3073 C_BLC_ENA > aktiv
3066 KL_ENABLE_LI > KL_Ein
3073 KL_ENABLE_RE > KL_Ein
3062 MAPPING_abbiegel_L_output > nsw_l
3062 MAPPING_abbiegel_R_output > nsw_r

Keep in mind that your headlight switch should be set to "auto", and that your low beams should be on, so you'll have to give it a try at night. It doesn't work in the day with DRL's on (not really any reason it should anyway).

As for the volume display, i don't think that works for the original HU_ENTRY/CIC. Probably NBT only. I have HU_Entry as well by the way and the TPMS doesn't show values for me either, so must be part of another package too.

Good to see the other codes worked!

Ahh, I probably had it working then but I expected it to come on in daylight like I've seen so VW/seat's do when they are turning or indicating. I'll put it back on when I have time.

This was extremely helpful to me - the only coding I'm missing now is for the low beam headlights.
Does anyone know where to code those?

I did some Trial and error with the other various xxx_L And xxx_R settings that mimicked what I've done for the fogs, drls, turn signal, and parking... none of them seek to be for the low beams though.

Thanks in advance!

I have done the application successfully. The fog lamps are blowing when the ignition is first turned on. How can I solve this problem?

BUMP.

Anybody please has the answer to this? coding to take care of low beam LED error message?

Please...

Thanks Billfitz. But sorry I forgot to mention I have a 2017 F25 car and it seems not to be the same as F30 (FRM instead of FEM Body) and in there I do not see 3061 > AL etc., I guess I'll keep looking but so far no luck. Thanks again.
