Featured Replies

Please be gentle im old and its my first time😇

Can anyone please please tell me where the switch is located and how to access it in the passenger glove box. It stays on and drains the battery so had to remover the bulb temporarily.

Thanks for reading this far

Hi, welcome.

I'll ask* a Moderator if your post will be better served in the Fabia Mk2 forum where lots of Fabia Mk2 owners and others will be able to help you with real world experiences and advice.

HTH.

@Me21 , as said in the thread that you were given a link one, the car should shut down all deemed unnecessary controllers a few minutes after the ignition has been switched off - and that should switch off all interior lights that have been left on, including the cabin and boot lights if a door or hatch is left open, so maybe there is another issue with your car that is stopping the controllers from being shut down or "put to sleep".

For what it is worth, or not, most newer VAG cars were not fitted with glovebox lights, I always considered retro fitting one to my wife's 2015 VW Polo - but we've had that car from new and I've still not got round to doing that, full gloveboxes don't really need a light - maybe.
