Headlight Activation, automatic
Automatic headlight activation ensures optimum vehicle lighting at all times, without the driver having to switch the headlights on or off manually. The system offers the driver a significant gain in terms of convenience and safety. The headlights are automatically switched on by means of a dusk sensor as darkness sets in, or when driving through a tunnel in the daytime. But the headlights are also activated in rain (continuous wipe for more than 5 seconds) or at high speed (at speeds over 140 km/h for longer than 10 seconds). When the speed drops again or the wipers are switched off, the system automatically deactivates the headlights after a short time. In this way your own vehicle is more easily seen by other road users.
Coming Home Function (semi-automatic, via stalk). Leaving Home Function (automatic)
When the occupants leave the vehicle, the dipped beam headlights, the courtesy lights in the exterior mirror housings, the tail lights and the number-plate lighting initially remain on and are switched off automatically after a delay period (coming home) if . The same lights are switched on when the driver unlocks the doors with the radio remote control (leaving home). In this way the car’s own outside lights help to illuminate the way to and from the door of the house whenever you arrive or set off in the dark.
You can do this modification because of your BCM MaX and the original configuration of all the wiring of your 6R GTI. OEM.
You're lucky because you only need a new wiring with two relais and an 'AUTO' light switch. + VCDS for coding.

Just a thought, maybe in Sweden all cars are configured to have their headlights on at all times, so this mod would be forbidden?

Re: LED-DRL Foglight replacement issues. Help appriciated
then by deduction, it would be forbidden to (manually) have your headlights on. that would be strange :pRUM4MO wrote:Just a thought, maybe in Sweden all cars are configured to have their headlights on at all times, so this mod would be forbidden?
