There must be given I've got one!
If you can share an adaptation map of your BCM I can compare with mine.
Thanks, I'll grab one in a little bit.

By the way, UK spec cars don't have this little wheel you have to dim the lighting. It's all via the infotainment for us.Thanks, I'll grab one in a little bit.

Like I said, ambient lighting isn't the correct option for dimming infotainment/instruments/illuminated controls.Yeah, that's what Cuzoe mentioned to me that kicked off this whole possible solution idea. I'm not confident adding an 'Instrument Lightning' slider will solve my issue, as all 3 that I've tried, Footwell, Front Ambient, & Door Ambient, all just change the color of the needles on the digital dash when I slide them.

But, I figure it's worth a shot. I think my better chance at a solution is finding how to reduce the max brightness, as it has to be in there somewhere.
I know this is a little off topic, but does any one know how to activate the Ambient Lighting screen?So, I don't think this is going to actually accomplish what I want. I found how to add either the 'ambient lightning menu'...

George, were you able to succeed in fixing this? i've given a go to Acadia's directions, but i am not yet getting the results needed. If anyone can share a module 9 backup history, i would be most appreciated to compare my settings against.What adaptations channels were changed to add Interior Lighting sliders to the default 'Lighting' menu? I was able to add ambient lighting menu, but it is blank. After changing head unit could never get this. Compared 5F adaptations maps of both units, but cannot see what changed between units. Fortunately, I had ambient lighting changed to where I like, but would like the ability to change back.

Sorry to thread hijack.. but if i have a manual climate control from a '17 gti se.. does the touch climate controls work as they should? plug and play? just started researching this..
Thanks for the thread link.. are there any other non functioning features? the sync thing im ok with since same as my manual climate control system now.. i do use windshield defroster and my foot heat almost exclusively in the winter and fall so that may be a deal breaker.. also i saw in a thread you were saying the A/C compressor wasn't kicking on or working properly?? thats a major prob too.. i saw on one of the aliexpress sellers listings mention something about rear climate won't be functioning or working??There's a big thread on it here:
https://www.golfmk7.com/forums/inde...pgrade-with-instructions-and-pictures.379148/
The bulk of the thread references the regular knob based climatronic unit, but if function the same as the touch one.
It's mostly plug and play. You have to run two temp sensors, on to the driver side footwell, and one to the drivers side upper vent. The touch one doesn't require any coding.
There are a few downsides. It has to stay on 'sync', since you don't have the ducting for dual zone. And because of the different ducting, you can't have the front windshield defroster vents and footwell vents on at the same time. I've found just leaving it on 'Auto' for the majority of the time works fine.

Cool thanks for letting me know that.. so only issue is the bi-level defroster? do all the other modes function properly? just dash, just lower feet, just windshield defroster and rear defrost all work individually? the seat heater buttons work as they should?A/C compressor not kicking on was my own fault. It worked fine, but I did a bunch of adaption and resets trying to "fix" the issue about the windshield/footwell, before I knew it was just a drawback of the retrofit. It's been fixed, but you won't have an issue out of the box with it.
Haven't noticed anything about the rear area. Air still blows out the rear ducting perfectly fine.
