sidelights

Good afternoon The drivers side side lights have stopped working on my T6 (both front and back). Any ideas? Fuses seem ok and I've swapped the bulbs, just in case. Any input would be greatly appreciated

Just sharing a tip, if like us you throw some of your excess baggage onto the drivers seat when camping in the van, just be mindful you don’t accidentally, unknowingly knock the stalk activating the parking lights, like we did, not sure how long they were on, definitely all night, probably a lot...

Hi All, First time posting, long time lurker. I do not believe this has been covered before but please point me in the right direction if it has. I have a VW T6 that I have upgraded the front headlights to LED. These are the THQ ones, and very good they are too. The local mechanic...

I have a question around the audio beep when leaving lights on in a t6.1. It’s a startline without auto lights. I have noticed that if I leave my side lights on take key out of and open the door it beeps to warn me I have left the lights on. But if the switch is set to full headlights and I...

Hi, yesterday night I had to pull over to the roadside and being quite dark I wanted to show my car being there as much as I could using both parking lights and warning signals (4 blinking turn signals) on. To my surprise, front parking lights have switched off when warning lights were on while...

On my T6 I can see a headlight symbol on the instrument cluster but it doesnt illuminate when the headlights switch on. Neither does the symbol on the rotary headlight switch, either. I know the dashbaord switches illuminate but would really like to enable the cluster symbol if possible. I've...

Hi, Am nearing completion of a t5.1 to t6.1 facelift. All going well but unsure how the new headlights are ment to work, in imagine not like mine are currently. I have attached photos of the light switch and then photos of the bulb that’s lit up for reference. Am I right in thinking the...

Hi all, I'm having problems with my t5.1 passenger sidelight, checked the voltage and it is only reading .7 of a volt drivers side reads 12.2, any advice much appreciated.

I can't figure this one out. When van sat on the drive way locked, the side lights just turn on for 15-20 seconds. I have been out and doors are locked but I don't see anything else as I not quick enough to get out to it. Its only happened twice that I know of. Very strange.

Evening all, After some help with a electrical issue with lights. This evening i have come out to the van and seen that the rear left driving lights didn’t come on when I unlocked the van, abit of quick checking this is the current working and not working status Rear left light Reverse...

I fitted a pair of OEM H7 headlights. L Swapped them with the bumper off, changed my setting on OBDEleven, all fine except that… DRL don’t light up, instead the side lights come on when DRL is activated. Puzzled. Can’t seem to find the setting / code I need to change to activate the proper...

Hi folks just bought a t6 camper van and the osr side light won’t work . I’ve changed bulbs there’s power to the multi block even tried a lamp from another transporter and still the same has anyone come across this ?

Hi all so I'm hoping someone can help before I rip out the interior and call in the infamously grumpy auto-electrician*. Also, I know this is the T6 forum and mine is a T5.1 but I couldn't see the electric forum on the T5 section. Feel free to shift to more appropriate place. So, neither my...

Quick question : my T6 highline has these aftermarket sequential led DRL headlights fitted and I’m not sure they’re wired in correctly. Before I go back to the van converters I need to ask what other people see when using the switch on the dash. Mine is : Switch in ‘Off’ position - DRLs lit, no...

I am wanting to build a pair of headlamps out of my candle lights removed from my T6 when I fitted the H7 lights. I want to split the lights and fit a projector style lamp in each of the 2 reflectors. By doing this the inner lamp will be a main beam but will lose the DRL. I understand the...

Hi, I’d like to upgrade my 501 sidelight bulbs to LED. In the past i’v noticed they didn’t last that long or become faulty. I’m sure technology has improved by now. Any recommendations for a good bulb / product? Thanks in advance Paul

Hi, New to the forum today I own a 65 plate T6 LWB Combi and have just been sound proofing and insulating the rear side & ceiling panels in preperation to start a slow DIY day van/Camper conversion.. I've not moved or touched any wiring at all EXCEPT one of the original ceiling light internal...

Got an interesting fault, with the lights switch set to "auto" all works fine no errors. But if set the lights switch to '0' or lights on eg side lights I get the bulb fail light error on the dash. Had a careful check round all the lights, they are all okay. Its a t6 highline 17 plate with...

Don't let the halogens put you off. These aren't finished. Looks like a set will go for £550
