Hi guys,

So, my drivers side module bracket snapped on back of headlight few months back. I never noticed, hanging in engine bay some how got set and now my headlights just point straight forward, work fine just no cornering. The biggest niggle is a bulb warning light on all the time.

I need a new adaptive module! I thought I had got clever buying a second hand Superb xenon headlight of eBay as it has the same adaptive module attached ( same part number) so 20min ago I fitted it.. Started car turned on headlight.. Drivers wide light pointed outwards as far as would go and wouldn't come back! Bricked myself! I mean, least I could use them before! Also noted, bulb warning light still on!

Anyway, after a bit of stressing, had the idea to try passenger side module on drivers side.. This reset the light straight! Feeewwww!!

So, all is back as it was before and I have this new spare part... Do you think its dodgy? Or perhaps I just need vds reset?

Thanks for any advise!

Should have said module got wet! Not set!

There is probably an error logged which would need clearing with vcds. Where abouts are you? There may be a local person who can help you.

I'm in Romiley, just outside Stockport... How would I find a local member? Would be great if I could,

Thanks for heads up mate!

Have a look at the list below of members with VCDS. There is one in Stockport...

Does the superb not have afs2? Or is that controlled via another module?

superb = afs2

octavia = afs - 5M0907357C

 

so they should b different afs control modules.

i'll try and find out what it is.
