Hi guys!

My car is A4 B6 1.8TQ AVJ 2002 sedan made for the Swiss market.
The car has halogen headlights, without light sensor and without AUTO position on the light switch.

I want to have automatic daytime running lights. When I start the car, high or low beams to turn on, without interior lighting and tail lights.
I tried changing the country coding with vcds (from here) but only the sidelight appeared to be affected.

I started searching and reading on Audi forums and I found that my central electric module is low line (8E0 907 279 D) which does not support DRL and i need to change it with a highline one.
So I bought one from a scraped A4 B6 - 8E0 907 279 F and installed it in my car. I executed the "learning procedure - 46992" on channel 81 with VCDS and dualk+can usb and I think it ran successfully.
However, that module is not working correctly. The sidelights appear to be turned on all the time and I cannot switch on the high beams (they only work when pulling the left lever as a "warning signal"). I tried coding it by all available country codes. Nothing changed.

Am I missing something about the installation?
Do you have any idea how to make it work?

Thank you!

Hi, thank you for your reply!
Here's my autoscan:

Removed.  Data from a clone/pirate copy of VCDS is not acceptable here.

Hi, it should be original version, I borrowed it from a friend and he said it is.
I just skipped to copy the bits from the log which I found unnecessary like date and versions.
Here's the full one:
