Hi guys, I'm new here! I own a Superb Mk2 2010 2.0 tdi and recently had my coming home/leaving home lights stopped working - they were working fine for some time (via the fog lights) and then all of a sudden just stopped. The options in the dashboard menu are ticked On as well as I have ticked it in the VCDS but still not working. The light switch is set on Auto and is working - the headlights are switching on when dark. Any idea what might be the issue? Thanks! 

Is your battery on it's way out?

 

I think there is a self preservation feature that turn's off non essential battery drain items. I seem to remember a thread on this forum some time ago.

Hi, the battery is brand new and I don't have any other lights related issues so far - the interior lights come up when I unlock/open the door. The media is a retrofit, but the function CH/LH was working fine in the beginning. I haven't performed any firmware update or anything. I did change the original fog lights with LEDs but there was a bulb error so I got the original ones back - they're just lung and play.

Has the car lost some settings when the battery was disconnected / replaced?

Well as far as I know it has some settings with the wheel and airbags or something that comes up as an error on the dashboard but after a short drive they go off. Other than that I don't know and didn't have any other errors popped up. 

You say you've used VCDS? Were there not any error codes ? I wonder if you have door wiring issues  ?

Hi, yes I've used the VCDS and there were no errors. Also I don't think it sounds like a door wiring issues as when I open the door all the interior lights light up and shuts off when I close it and lock it(the open door signal on the maxi dot screen also indicates open doors).
