Re: 6R Cruise Control Retrofit Problems

On the older clusters sold in India, there's no CC led. So no notification comes up.

Re: ciclo's Polo. R-line 1.2 TSI 90hp 119gr.

Fernando, I cannot thank you enough for the help you have rendered so far especially the current flow diagrams of various things that I have asked you. Installed cruise control yesterday and the new steering wheel and everything worked flawlessly! It was such an awesome experience doing it. As for t...

Re: Few problems straight out the show room :( (bluegt)

1. That's the coolant temp. gauge if you are referring to this one:

90'C is the optimum operating temperature of the coolant - no issues there.

2. Do check the fuse. Being a brand new car, I wouldn't suspect a bad harness or component, but do check the fuse.

Will not read what correctly? Please be specific.

The glow plug light can be substituted for the EPC light using a bit of EEPROM coding so that is not an issue.

Re: Installation auto dimming mirror + BCM connector

iichel, how hard was it to take off the stock mirror clamp which was glued to the windshield? What chemical/solution did you use to take it off the windshield?

Re: BlackPoloBM

The glow plug light is being substituted by the EPC light in function. De paticulate filter warning is now on the pixel screen. iichel, I don't get the EPC light on my cluster. Is there a way to get this light activated? Can VCDS be of any use here? I only get these lights when I turn the key to AC...

Re: BlackPoloBM

The GTI tacho doesn't have issues if it is used on a diesel car. I have a GTI tacho on my 1.6 TDI. Tacho works just like the stock one but the downside is the lack of the glowplug warning light on the GTI cluster. I am guessing the LED is not soldered on the board. For swapping the cluster, the immo...

Re: ciclo's Polo. R-line 1.2 TSI 90hp 119gr.

Will figure this out in one way or the other. Ciclo, do you have the wiring diagram for the dashboard illumination controller? Here in India, VW does not provide one in the headlamp range control knob. It’s like this: http://i.imgur.com/3WL8qbL.png Whereas with the illumination control, it should be...

Re: ciclo's Polo. R-line 1.2 TSI 90hp 119gr.

Thank you ciclo. I think there might be a dummy hole with a grommet on the co-driver side as well. Let me check. ciclo, I can confirm that there is a dummy hole covered by a rubber grommet on the co-driver side. Will try to route the wire through the hood release grommet since that will be closest ...

Ok, thanks to you for your excellents DIY in your forum (team-bhp). :wink: Thanks a lot to you too for this informative thread ciclo!

Re: ciclo's Polo. R-line 1.2 TSI 90hp 119gr.

Ciclo, need some help. What is the easiest way for routing a thin wire through the firewall/bulkhead? I saw the rubber grommet for the hood release cable but it is located a bit inside and may have to remove the wipers and the plastic trim to gain access. Is there another point?

Thanks in advance!
