No, the driver side was open when i tried. The AB30 value is 100 which is the brightness but i dont want to change the brightness in obdeleven iwant to change it staright from the cars menu

Yes.. so close the door and the lights will decrease in brightness to whatever you choose in the settings...

Hey!
I've installed LED footwell lights into my Golf 2015 (BCM ver. 5Q0 937 087 M).
But I have an issue with accessing to Ambient Lightning menu on my MIB. It says "This function is currently not available".
Made coding and adaptations according to @Bäsemödel post here: https://www.golfmk7.com/forums/index.php?threads/bäsemödel-1-8-tsi-project.330229/#post-6829114
So the lights work while door is open, but turns off completely when door is closed. As menu isn't accessible I can't set the value of brightness during closed doors.
Can someone assist and share the thoughts?
Thanks in advance.

UPDATE: I've managed to code footwell light to work but I haven't the ability to modify intensity via MMI, only with cluster intensity slider. There is no "Footwell light" menu under "Lights" in settings. What should I check?

I believe that this is the most complete list of coding and adaptation values that you should check to have footwell lights working correctly. In my case the Interior lighting; parameter were all set to 0% and I had to adjust them to make the installation work.

But as far as I understand these parameters are available on a newer model year cars as I don't see these settings in adaptation via VCDS (or maybe I need updated VCDS interface - HEX V2 or Hex-Net.). And for now footwell lights work well, except that I have no menu "Footwell lights"under "Lights" on mmi.

Mine's a 2016 with 5Q0 937 086 AK, SW: 0162. Not sure if it's older/newer or maybe low/high version of the BCM.

I had issues in getting my footwell lighting working for almost 2 years., but after double/triple checking the longcoding and all parameters mr.fix provided., it worked. By the way, mine is 2017 golf. BCM : No SW: 5Q0 937 087 AA

Hey!
Mine is working fine, the only issue that I can't make the setting Footwell light appear under Lights menu on MMI.
