Check to see if a fuse has blown Changing fuses.
Follow the instructions to change the affected bulb . Always use identical bulbs with the
same designation. The designation is inscribed on the bulb, either on the glass part or on
the base.
Do not touch the glass part of the bulb with unprotected fingers. The heat of the bulb would
cause the fingerprint to evaporate and condense on the reflector. This will impair the
brightness of the headlight.
After changing the bulb, check to ensure that the bulb is working properly. If the bulb is not
working properly, the bulb may not have been inserted properly or may have failed again,
or the connector may have been inserted incorrectly.
Any time you change a bulb in the front of the vehicle, the headlight settings should be
checked by a qualified workshop.

Fitting the tail light cluster
11.Carefully put the tail light cluster into the opening in the body.
12.Use one hand to hold the tail light in the fitting position while using the other hand to
screw the securing bolt firmly back in ⇒ Fig. 207③.
13.Check that the tail light cluster is positioned correctly and securely.
14.Connect the connector to the bulb holder and press into place.

The illustrations show the left-hand tail light cluster. The right-hand tail light cluster housing is
a mirror image of the one shown.
There are various types of tail light cluster, so the position and design of covers, bulbs and
bulb holders may vary from those shown in the illustrations.
In tail light clusters with LEDs, some light elements may be fitted with normal bulbs. These
bulbs can be changed.
Troubleshooting
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒
Introduction
Lighting
Vehicle lighting not working partially or completely. A separate display appears in the
instrument cluster if there is a cornering light fault.A trailer turn signal or all trailer lights have
stopped working.
Check the exterior lighting and change the appropriate bulb as required ⇒ Changing bulbs. If all
bulbs are OK or there is a fault in the dynamic cornering light, go to a qualified workshop.
Monitoring the lights on a connected trailer
For vehicles with a factory-fitted towing bracket, the vehicle will also monitor certain bulbs on a
trailer which has been connected properly via the trailer socket.
If a trailer turn signal or all the trailer lights fail, the indicator lamp in the instrument cluster will
go out.
Changing fuses
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the followingsubjects:
⇒ Fuses in the dash panel
⇒ Fuses in the engine compartment
⇒ Fuse table for fuses in the dash panel
⇒ Fuse tables for fuses in the engine compartment
⇒ Changing a blown fuse
At the time of print we are unable to provide an complete overview of the locations of the fuses for
the electrical consumers. This is because the vehicle is under constant development, because
fuses are assigned differently depending on the vehicle equipment level and because several
consumers may use a single fuse. You can get more information about the fuse layout from a
Volkswagen dealership.
Several electrical consumers could share a single fuse. Conversely, a single consumer could have
more than one fuse.
Therefore fuses should only be replaced when the cause of the fault has been rectified. If a new
fuse blows shortly after insertion, have the electrical system checked by a qualified workshop as
soon as possible.
