Auto Windscreen Wiper Activation

[hidnmine]

Hi,
I'm new to your forum, so appreciate any help.

I have a 2010 model year A3 2.0TDI.

I recently replaced the windscreen to fit the auto dimming mirror. This screen also has the sensor for auto wipers.
I have the wiring diagrams from ElsaWin, so should be able to figure out the wiring.
My question is, can i use VCDS to activate the auto wipers?

Thanks
Andy

Welcome to the forum.

Yes auto lights/wipers can be enabled via vcds if the systems are fitted.

Hi NHN,

Thanks for that,
I think perhaps I didn't phrase the question correctly. Part two should have said "how"

The question was answered on another forum:

Rain/Light Sensor Installed
Coming Home via (0 = personalisation, 1 = rain/light sensor) ie tick this box

Next problem - DRL no longer works; the headlights come on instead.
Maybe the auto wipers option only works when auto lights are also fitted?

Cheers,
Andy
