Bulb Monitoring warning light - code out?

[Sackmycook]

Anyone know if it's possible to code out the bulb warning orange lamp on the dash.
Just looking to turn the function off completely. If so, would be using VCDS

If you're passing it on, I would describe it like this... you can change the long coding in the BCM(09 Central Electrics) module to switch off the lamp diagnosis light on the dashboard for the Low Beam , Rear Fog Light(s), Daytime Running Lights (DRL) and/or High Beam. You can't stop the fault being raised but you can switch off the warning light.

Worth noting that the long coding descriptions online say "lamp diagnostics" as if you are turning off the lamp diagnostics, whereas actually it is a lamp diagnosis light that you switch off (on the dash). I put this down to mistranslation of the German

Perfect, that makes sense even to me.

This is something that I also want to get done
I've had it since fitting led drl's & sidelights in my H7's

The garage that I took it to for the main & full beam coding (autohaus Dolby) did the headlight coding but said they couldn't turn off the bulb out warning light

If anyone round the Sheffield area can do it let me know & we can sort out some liquid payment.......cheers

That sounds great pal, if you've got a rough idea & the advice from @Andysmee makes sense to you it should be do able?

We can give it a go, what could possibly go wrong

@Robert followed your guidance and the bulb warning function is now inoperative. Thanks for the info, a great help

Hi, I’ve got the bulb warning light on after having the headlights changed to drl’s. Any ideas how to get the warning off?

 

[Deaky]

You can turn bulb monitoring off with VCDS

 

[sparkes1210]

Is it easy to do?
I’ve got the ancel vd700 but can’t find how to do it??

In VCDS, it’s pretty straightforward. Never heard of VD700.

 

[Deaky]

The scanner you have will only read fault codes and reset them, it won’t code

 

[sparkes1210]

Any suggestions on Vcds to buy?
