Thanks for the reply! I ended up taking ground from the brown wire on pin 2 on the 32 pin plug.  :pomppomp: :pomppomp:

I've a Golf Plus 1.9TDi 2005. I managed to fit the fronts fine. However, the rear doors are proving a pain. I see above, you managed to connect up to the lock plug for the +tive? I can take a 12v positive from the controller plug but the light stays on when I close the door even after setting up through the Vag-com.  Is there a spare pin on the lock? someone mentioned pin 4!

Hi,

sorry to bring this topic back to live.
hoping anyone having the same problem as me can give us some insights......

Rear door card puddle lights not working, and what i have done so far:-
1. coding in 42, 62 & 72 already changed;
2. Pin 14 is taken, so tried Pin 6 as 12v, still no use (Pin 4 as ground already plugged in);
3. used voltage-meter to test the pins inside the controller, the meter didnot get a reading at all on all pins;
4. Lights & wires tested by touching direct to the battery and confirmed working;

car is Mk5 2006 1.6FSi (I am convinced the car was manufactured before June 06, so it uses the old controller module)

front puddle lights work and shine like Christmas Tree.....

Can anyone help me how to solve the rear lights connection problem?

many thanks.

they won't work on the rear doors

when I did them on my old car, i wired them into pin 4 on the actual door lock (this would be a switched earth) take the power from the main Red & yellow wire. no need for coding

Hi Eddie,

so wot you r saying is .... even though I activated the coding for the rear doors, none of the pins at the controller will enable the puddle lights to be swtiched on?

Oh sorry, pin 1 is for fronts,

have you referred to the web link that MARKO has posted up?

Double check the coding in vcds.

By the way they are called door warning lights, puddle lights are the ones which go on the wing mirror.
