    Day-time running lights?

    Hi,

    Does anyone know how to turn on the day-time running lights? It's a requirement for Canada...

    I think the VAG System can program the fogs to come on with ignition.

    Thanks,
    MG

    search is your friend, Tim, had a little blurb about it when he got his RS6, though if I recall correctly, it requires a bit more than just fiddling with VAGCOM....

    BTW, Tim's name on the boards if bigglezworth, might be helpful to send him a PM if you can't dig up the original post through search. Cheers!

    Thanks DWD...

    I tried the search & spoke with Tim & Bill from up North.

    Tim got around this issue by hard-wiring the fogs to go with ignition via a jumper wire... He also suggested that this was likely 'doable' via the VAG, but he didn't go down that path.

    I'll keep searching and thanks for any guidance!

    I have some PDFs that show wiring for daytime running lights on US and Canada spec drawings. What's odd is there is a different scheme for making them work in the US and Canada. Drop me a PM with your email address as these files are too large to post.

    I tried the VAGCOM but only managed to change odometer from miles to kilometers, so I used Tim's mod
