Hello all. I've recently run into a strange issue and was hoping someone here could help. A couple years ago, I installed a euro switch in my 2009 GTI. With this, I disabled the DRL's (which disabled the light in my instrument cluster) and everything has worked fine. Recently, I was tinkering around with my CECM coding and somehow managed to make it so that my DRL light remains on in my instrument cluster (even with the parking brake up, turns off when my headlights/parking lights are on). Now, my DRL's are most certainly disabled in my coding, and enabling them does nothing to make my DRL's work. The xenons never turn on, even though the DRL light on the cluster works normally (off with parking brake up, on when parking brake released). I have tried enabling the DRL's and setting the fogs as DRL, and the fogs work.

I'm really lost at this point, and I'm starting to wonder if I have damaged my CECM. Any suggestions would be very helpful.

Good question. I can't think of any reason other than the OP posted it there. Moving to Tweaks.

^^^gwmooresc: I haven't an answer to your question, but pending a better response from a more knowledgeable colleague, have you looked in the 2 x VCDS "history" files for a possible solution?

Not sure if you are aware, but navigate to the sub-directory Ross-Tech/VCDS/Debug on the laptop that use to run VCDS software. In that sub-directory, you should find a complete database of ALL the changes that you have made with your cable/dongle. These records are contained in the files, ApdLog.CSV and CodingLog.CSV.

Hopefully, there are entries in those files for the period where the odd behavior that you describe first appeared. If so, try reverting the values to the original settings - which are identified in the files.

Good luck - and may the VCDS-force be with you! :D

You sir, are a hero. I went in and recoded the CECM to coding I had from late May and the light immediately disappeared. The new coding I'm using is as follows:

E70D8A07000410004714000000140000000994095C00010C000000000000

I haven't gone through byte by byte, but I believe the error arose from changing headlight washer parameters (my car doesn't have them :p). I will do more digging myself and post when I determine the exact change that caused this issue. Thank you so much!
