Title: Footwell lighting Help!
Post by: monte on April 05, 2014, 11:34:51 pm
Just wondered if any of you guys know what is needed to use the footwell lights constantly when driving at night time? (when the headlights are on)

A friend has a new Skoda Superb with this feature and I think it's pretty awesome tbh. It's really nice ambient lighting.  :notworthy:

Thanks,

Carlo.  :smiley:

Mk6 gti also has this feature so maybe a swap to a later CCM and coding perhaps?  :happy2:

It is the coding. I have it in mine but doesn't work. Must have to have a certain CECM.

What year is your car Matt?

Also what do u mean you have it, but it doesn't work?

You mean it's been coded to work but you don't have the module needed?

Mines an 08 plate.

I mean I have the option in VCDS to activate it but when it is, it does nothing.
