Dash lights

Post by T33beh »

As you can see in the picture below there are some lights that light up and others which I have no idea of what they are, and was wondering whether you are able to activate these through vagcom? I tried my best to get a decent picture Image

The only lights that light up are the ones relevant to your specific car build. For example you don't want a DPF or Glow Plug light to light up on a petrol car. The lights that don't light up are for different models and / or different options.

I know the following lights can be activated:

Drl light - turns on when drl is on (can be activated with vcds)
Windscreen washer light - instal level sensor
Tire pressure light - activated with vcds (with or without reset button)

From the picture the TPMS light is on already.
