Hi all,

As you may or not be aware I just had my comfort control module changed after my previous one failed. I got the car back yesterday and all appeared well. However when I locked the car today I noticed the amber rear indicators did not flash, instead it was a red light that illuminated (on the outer cluster inside the led section). I also noticed the rear fog lights didn't work (the switch light flashed on, but turned off after a second).

I put this down to a coding issue, and using VCDS I checked the following channels in module 46: Central Convenience

181 - 65535
189 - 16383
191 - 16143
195 - 14852
196 - 14884
197 - 14980
198 - 15012
203 - 8266
204 - 82998

I understand these codings are for the standard halogen? I found a guide that recommended the following changed to code a halogen unit to a pre-facelift led that recommended the following changes

181 - 65535 to 64608
189 - 16383 to 16380
191 - 16143 to 16383
195 - 14852 to 5125
196 - 14884 to 5157
197 - 14980 to 5124
198 - 15012 to 5156
203 - 8266 to 73
204 - 8298 to 105

However I understand these instructions are for people using a Kufatec loom for a halogen to led retrofit and are possibly for a coupe. I really need the standard VCDS coding for a 2010 convertible pre-facelift rear LED unit; does anybody have these, or know where I can get them?

If not, are there any pre-facelift convertible owners that have VCDS that could do me a HUGE favour and check the values in the following channels in module 46 - adaptation (you'll need enter the security access login prior to entering the adaptation section, the codes are 41067 or 16017 - 16017 worked for me).

I realise this is a big ask and it will take a few minutes, but it would really help!! I beleive channels 207 and 208 relate to the indicators, but I'd like to check all the codes to be sure!
 
So I finally managed to get this resolved. I tried the many suggestions given to me on various forums, but unfortunately none of them worked. I finally came across a post where somebody posted up the coding for Sportback with pre-facelift LEDs (they use the same units). I tried this coding and it worked! So for anybody else that has the same issue with factory fit pre-facelift LEDs the coding required is as follows

185:65535
195:5124
196:5156
197:5251
198:5283
199:12
200:44
201:133
202:165
203:73
204:105
