Hello guys,
I also need your help ...

I have a VW Caravelle 2017 from the EU ... LEFT STEERING WHEEL !!!
I changed the headlights and taillights on the back.
I installed the original VW parts.
I mention that I did not install leveling sensors!

On the back everything works perfectly but on the face, at the headlights I have a problem!


1) When starting the position (first step) of the button with the ENGINE OFF
the DRL lights up at maximum intensity,
when I turn on the low beam the DRL is lit at maximum intensity together with the low beam

2) When I start the engine, the DRL does not light up ... when I put the position (first step) DRL appears at maximum intensity

3) I have on the left side (driver's side) 2 wires that do not know where to connect them
red / blue and yellow / gray

4) I have on the right side (passenger side) 1 RED / BLUE electrical wire that I do not know where to tie it

I made the following connections:

RIGHT PART (passenger side) LEFT PART (driver side)

CAR INSTALLATION 14 PIN CAR INSTALLATION 14 PIN

BLACK / GREEN -> PIN 9 YELLOW / BLACK ---> PIN 6
BROWN (thin thread) -> PIN 7 GRAY / RED ---> PIN 10
BROWN (thick thread) -> PIN 5 GRAY / BLACK ---> PIN 12
YELLOW -> PIN 6 WHITE / BLACK (thick thread) ---> PIN 11

RED / BLUE ---> PIN ??? BROWN ---> PIN 7
RED / BLUE ---> PIN ???
YELLOW / GRI ---> PIN ???

PIN ---> 1,2,3,4,13,14 ARE FREE PIN ---> 1,2,3,4,13,14 ARE FREE


I had the coding on 09 CENTRAL ELECTRIC :

7BA839BA2A21201200200F747C6B8CD4FF0069FF60EC4960320400A30800

new cod

6BF279BA2A21209300288F407EEB8FFCD0A4738960ED79603204033F0860

I put this code because I still have a 2017 CARAVELLE HIGHLINE, 4Motion, DSG
and has original LED headlights from the factory.
With this code does not tremble (no flash) position, short beam, long beam
Everything goes well with this code just like:
the position does not work and the DRL is maximum intensity all the time!
I know the autolevelling will not work ... maybe from the button inside the car!
WHERE WIRES MUST BE CONNECTED THAT IN THE ... 14 PIN ???

... what,where am I wrong?

Below are some pictures for more details
Thank you!
Have a nice day everyone's!

Disregarding auto leveling and pins 1,2,3,4
you should have pins number 8 and 13 empty(no wiring) on your new 14 pin lamp plug.
I think you should review your wiring and you could refer to this ---> T6 LED headlight retrofit?

Thanks Robert that's really kind, I've read all your previous threads and it looks really comprehensive. The wiring bit does scares me, but I think with a few more questions i'll get there. I'm in the middle of fitting an Absolut5 speaker upgrade at the moment. I'll tackle the lights when I have the sounds in.
 
something's not right

1) I did not pull any electrical wire from BCM
2) I did not install automatic range control
3) on the right side, how do you look at the car ... the red / blue wire ... must be connected in the 14 pin in the new 14 pin jack?
4) on the left side, how do you look at the car (on the left side is the steering wheel) ... wire red/blue must be connected in pin 14 in the new 14 pin jack?
if 1,2,3,4 are for automatic range control ... 8 & 13 no wiring ... yellow / gray wire in which pin put?

first time I used the scheme from your post but the headlamp didn't work well.
So I wired to see where to put ... and I had 2 wire respectively 1 wire ... I do not know where to put in new 14 pin jack

At this moment when I start the engine, the DRL does not work.
When the parking light comes on, the normal LED lights up.
When the low beam or high beam is ON , the parking light LED lights up at maximum intensity as if it were DRL lit. Normally, when turning on the low beam or high beam the led for parking start , but to my car start led parking to maximum intensity

tks for help!

You have to run 4 new wires from BCM to your lights. It will not work correctly if you won't do it. Please study carefully my wiring diagram in my last post.

@DMV something for you ;)
...
And by the way, all of the wiring from the halogen setup(either H4 or twin H7) can be reused for the LED lights except for the side lights.
Two new wires have to be run from BCM plug B
PIN5 to LHS lamp PIN10
PIN6 to RHS lamp PIN10
The reason is below.

View attachment 19044

This is the voltage produced by BCM to the LED headlamps on PIN10 when side lights are switched ON.
At the same time 12V DC is supplied to PIN12.

And when DRLs are switched ON both PIN10 & PIN12 receive 12V DC.

If there is only one PIN(either 10 or 12) supplied with 12V DC DRLs/sides will remain OFF. Obviously this should not happen when retrofit was carried out properly.
 
Mine were for all four with the 14 odd correct retaining screws £500 inc for latest genuine parts from TPS at my special discount rate.
You can get them from EBay but you run the risk of getting faulty parts, some of the earlier units did have start up issues, but will be half the price and if you do get a bad one, should be able to get a refund with eBay buyer protection.

Almost ready to fit, bought the pin terminals rather than the repair wires for the range ecu, used 3 core 0.75 mm cable for the front and rear sensors, ordered a genuine loom for the rear sensor to have genuine fit to the sensor and making my own front sensor loom to the front sensor.
Waiting for 5 core cable 0.75mm to arrive for the range motors. I know you need to run six wires but for 58L and 58R I used the wire at the T10/10 plug to link to T14/9 and just swapping those wires from the black plug over to the white plug so from T73a/41 now goes to T73b/5 for 58L (MX1) and from T73a/40 to T73b/6.
I made plug and play looms from a mixture of repair wires and repair terminals to negate the need for joins. All plugs have been sealed with the correct wire seals or bungs too.
For the front sensor loom plug I used some dumdum (factory also use this in their looms) and a boot seal along with wire seals to keep water out of the sensor

I only need 5 cores re my recent post.
So using it for pins 1-4 for range motor wires and pin 14 for PWM, plus I already had it on order for something else.

Yes i have made up looms for people and supplied complete kits to retro fit LED headlights but have gone about it in a different way by making full plug and play looms so everything connects around existing wiring and is fully removable, all our parts come direct from VW UK so works out more expensive than sourcing parts from different places online

hi Paul i have spoken to you regarding thishow much could you make loom for please
 
Got the range motor and plug and play connections done for the headlights now.
The plug connects I used are for the later type terminals not the 1J0 type.

@Pauly can I have a loom, please? I’ve still got your bank details providing they haven’t changed.. cheers.
