I've done a whole load more testing on my set up and it seems things are mostly working as they should, apart from the actual level of voltage to the cup light. Its only 0.65v when the lights are on, when I think it should be 12v. Turn the lights off and the 0.65V decreases to zero as one might...
Fair point and I will if I can't crack it but I would also like to understsnd how it all works on an OEM basis. I am pretty sure I have a simple coding issue and its all wired up now so I would like to rule that out first.

Could someone with the interior light kit either standard or retrofitted on an A3 8V please clarify which lights are controlled by the "front" background lighting setting? Is it just the cupholder? Does anyone with the cupholder working as it should have an adaptation map for the BCM they...
@fatyin: did you ever get your cupholder to light and be controllable through the MMI? I have the same issue as you report in post #120. Grateful for any advice if you found a fix.
Thanks in advance

I installed my cupholder light today but can't get it to light up. Its definitely in the correct pin on the J519 but no joy. I suspect I am missing something in the coding - does anyone know the correct coding please?
Thanks
Adam
Thanks, you were right. I also needed to enable footwell and door separately in the mmi to get the independent settings via the car menu above, via:
Interior light; light configuration-Fussraumbeleuchtung = installed
Interior light; light configuration-Cockpitbeleuchtung = installed
There is...
Thanks for your response.
I was being dull and testing it with the lights off!! It works fine and yes I have a brightness dial in the mmi. What i dont have is the picture of the car with a choice of opfions for footwell, door etc, just a single dial, as if they would all be set together not...
Just to clarify on this, the lights are now working on door open. The ring wasn't properly attached to the earth wire so I resoldered and am in business.
However they dim and quickly go off once the ignition is turned on. Could this all simply be because I only have a midline BCM?
Thanks
Adam
I carried out my install today (apart from seating the rear lights which I'll do properly when all is working).
The footwell light circuit I made takes uses the newer front LEDs and connectors bought from Audi to replace the front lights in an 8P LED footwell light circuit - I think that should...
Sorry to revive an old thread but looking to do this on my A3 8V and was just wondering if someone could definitively tell me if the BCM is behind the glovebox on a RHD please? I think the first picture in this thread suggests that, but everything else I have seen suggests it might be above the...
