VW Golf MK7 (5G) Background lighting ambient lights menu activation

[@citronovykolac]

Great tutorial! My radio was upgraded on my mk7 and since the upgrade i had only the black screen with single button to adjust all lights at once, when previously i had individual sliders. You cant imagine how happy this makes me

[@mrfixpl]

Happy to help! Please let me know if that actually fixed your issue, OK?

[@citronovykolac]

​@@mrfixpl sadly, for whatever reason, my adaptation channel "Interior light, light configuration" on Centra Electrics 09 does not contain options you specify. My channel contains - Ambiente_Applikationsleisten_in_Tuertafel - installed, Ambiente_Lautsprecher - not installed, Ambiente_Applikationsleisten_in_Instrumententafel - not installed, Cockpitbeleuchtung - not installed, Mittelkonsolenbeleuchtung - not installed, Dachbeleuchtung - not installed, Panoramaschiebedachbeleuchtung - not installed, Fussraumbeleuchtung - installed, Farbwahl ueber HMI - not installed, Farbwahl ueber Fahrprofil - not installed. All of these options seem like only specifying which lights are installed, nothing in regards to menu behaviour (besides the color selection Farbwahl which is useless on golf lights) Here are some hw details in case you are able to deduct something from it Car: vw golf mk7 2014 2.0TDI CRLB Highline - stock footwell & door lighting Central electrics 09 details - System description: BCM MQBAB H Hardware number: 5Q0937084AE Hardware version: H16 Software number: 5Q0937084AE Software version: 0124 Also when I tried to atleast enable the background via changing the car model it did not work (ive also restarted headunit). It stayed at regular mk7 hatch model. Multimedia 5F details - System description: MU-S-N-ER Identifier: J794 Hardware number: 3Q0035846 Hardware version: H24 Software number: 3Q0035846 Software version: 0254 / H25.14.89_STD2Nav_EU I'll try to look around if it's maybe in different location but I was pressed for time so I could not go deeper.

[@mrfixpl]

It might be old software. Both in BCM (without the ambient menu options) and in MIB (pre-facelift firmware - I'm actually running 0478).

[@citronovykolac]

@mrfixpl updating 0478 fixed the background image issue but (as expected given bcm was not updated) those adaptation options are still unavailable

Your information is always good stuff keep it up... Quick question OBD11 says now the off road display is available for my 2015 Golf R... The never ending battle

If you have MIB2 unit (MST2 or MHI2) you can enable offroad display. Older MIB1 units (MSTD, MHIG) do not support it.

In my golf 7 2016 I can't change to the facelift model in the menu. Even if I changed the "car derivate supplement" from 0 to 1.

[@aaronlim5566]

Would it be possible to adjust when the ambient light comes on or off? For example, keeping them on for a few seconds when the car is off or turning them on when unlocking the car?

[@mrfixpl]

Possible. Check my video about cup holder retrofit. There are delay parameters that you can adjust for different interior light zones.

[@aaronlim5566]

@@mrfixpl That video was what gave me the idea. There are so many though. I’m not sure which ones to adjust.

I have the variant 7.5 with the MiB 2.5 system. I’ve activated this menu plus the color list 1 and 2 so 30 colors. But I have some rgb led strips, is it possible to connect to the system ? So I can change colors through the infortaiment. Thanks in advance

[@TheCarGuru]

I coded everything as you described and I only have the ALL button with the slider for the lights door and footwell lights. I don't have the two little cogs where I can change the lights individually by area. Before the recode, like your car, I also had the individual sliders in the lights menu. Do you know what could be wrong? I have an MK7.5 GTI.

[@mrfixpl]

Try also changing this: P ambientelicht verbauinformation HMI = 17 P ambientelicht verbauinformation HMI2 = 84 If those adaptation channels accept binary strings, use: HMI = 00010001 HMI2 = 01010100

[@TheCarGuru]

​@@mrfixplThank you. Your instructions worked like a charm. Do you know how I could enable the option to enable/disable the left-hand vs right-hand main headlight option in the MIBII? Our NAR GTI's don't have that menu option from the factory.

Hi, I have just retro fitted front & rear footwell lights to my 2019 1.5 tsi Golf and they work when I open the door then gradually dim when I close the doors but when I use the brightness adjustment slider on the infotainment system it has no effect on the lights. Do my headlamps need to be on for this slider to work or can you spot anything below in the settings I used below using the latest VCDS tool? Thanks 17:57 1 Hello All, Just wanted to let everyone know that I have successfully retrofitted footwell lights on my 2019 NAR GSW 4mo using the Kufatec wiring. Here is what I did: Wired to C72 and ground. Performed this coding: Adaption Channel: From: To: IDE09732-ENG114629-Interior light: light not installed configuration-Foot well lighting installed IDE11477-ENG128539-Interior lighting: parameter- 0.2 IDE11477-ENG128548-Interior lighting: parameter- 70% IDE11477-ENG128545-Interior lighting: parameter- 70% IDE11477-ENG128547-Interior lighting: parameter- 70% IDE11477-ENG128544-Interior lighting: parameter- 70% IDE11477-ENG128549-Interior lighting: parameter- 70% IDE11477-ENG128554-Interior lighting: parameter- 70% IDE11477-ENG128550-Interior lighting: parameter- 127% IDE11477-ENG128546-Interior lighting: parameter- 126% IDE11477-ENG128543-Interior lighting: parameter- 127% IDE11477-ENG128542-Interior lighting: parameter- 126% IDE11477-ENG128541-Interior lighting: parameter-p_helligkeit_max_fussraum 70% IDE11477-ENG128551-Interior lighting: parameter- 70% IDE11477-ENG128552-Interior lighting: parameter- 70% IDE11477-ENG128553-Interior lighting: 0 70% parameter- ENG116966-ENG116447-Leuchte30FR 89 ENG116966-ENG116444-Leuchte30FR LC72-Fehlerort mittleres Byte DTC- 2.0 ENG116966-ENG116442-Leuchte30FR not active 36 - LED ENG116966-ENG116445-Leuchte30FR not active Footwell light This completely worked for me and allows for HMI dimming adjustment. I based all of this coding off of my friends 2019 Golf R. This should work fine in a 2018 as well as my friends 2018 GSW has the same adaptions.

funny how a pre-facelift already has facelift pictures loaded in the MIB

Nice catch! Actually I have Technisat unit with 04xx firmware which was designed for facelift cars. I had to do this in order to get USB HUB support. Now that I think about it, I should have mention this in the video.

Add one thing to it: module 09, adaptation, interior lighting parameter: P ambientelicht verbauinformation HMI = 11111111 P ambientelicht verbauinformation HMI2 = 11111111 P ambientelicht verbauinformation HMI3 = 11111111 if it does not accept 11111111, try with 255
