Travel Mode Vanished

[dbrock]

I may be having a senior moment, but could someone remind me how to access Travel Mode on a 2015 T6.

I went to France last week and used the settings menu to access 'Lights' and then 'Travel Mode'. On returning I went to settings and the 'Lights' menu had vanished. Completely gone. I have cycled through every menu and it s nowhere to be found. Is there some trick to accessing the 'Lights' menus so that I can turn 'Travel Mode' off?

Can you check if your headlamps perform self level system test when starting your engine?

 

[dbrock]

Yes, it does the self level system test when starting the engine.

Generally this menu entry disappears when there is a issue with the leveling system.

Do you have anything to scan your vehicle for fault codes? Carista, OBD11, VCDS, VCP, ODIS, etc.?

 

[Pauly]

that menu entry automatically appears on vans that have a range module fitted so my guess would be that the van has somehow lost communication with range module/levelling controller
It must still have power as the lights are doing the up down on power up so maybe a CANBUS wiring issue

Getting a fault scan would be the first step to see what’s going on

I have a wheel speed sensor fault at the moment that is being fixed next week. I will see if that makes a difference.

MY18 T6 - OEM LED.

this is what i have . . .

in that menu is one option - Travel mode on/off

 

[dbrock]

Yes, that's what I had a week ago. Now the option for 'Lights & Vision' has disappeared.

 

[dbrock]

My Settings menu is similar to Dellmassive's but jumps from MFD data to Coasting

 

[Dellmassive]

You may have a fault with the system,

As above first thing to do is scan for codes.

I’ve had exactly the same problem. Travel mode vanished from my MFD (factory LEDs) also wheel speed sensor fault. Lost ACC/TPMS/ESC. Replaced wheel speed sensor. All now good. Lights menu has returned to MFD. Noted that the lights were still in “Travel Mode”, so a fault doesn’t reset them.

That's a mad coalition.

You would expect the lights to only need the level sensors.

You & me both, Brother. I’ve sat and wracked my brains trying to work the logic through from wheel speed sensor to headlight adjustment, nada! I get the TPMS/ACC/ESC etc, but I can’t make the connection to the headlights.

Just had the rear drivers side wheel speed sensor on our non led, non tpms camper replaced but in addition toACC/ESC we had Front Assist failure showing on the MFD.
