Hi, I'm hoping that someone on here can help ...., please !!!
This has been doing my head in.
I have a 2006 Le Mans quattro saloon.
Problem-
Recently managed to complete the front and back facelift conversion, however hrs and hrs of trial and error later I cannot get the rear lights to work properly.
I believe that you have to re wire the rear lights as an avant to enable boot lid lights and code as an avant .
This has been done but the rear brake lights do not light up correctly and only the right side reverse light (left flickers for a split second)
Reverse light and indicators look weak if that makes sense, brakes light up in blocks rather than whole light like the daytime lights
Everything else works fine
I have attached pics (sorry about the quality)
If anyone could help point me in the right direction or help in anyway I would be very appreciative.
Maybe someone on here has experience of doing the conversion themselves?
Thanks in advance
Rick

Work done so far
Facelift front bumper inc new fogs and surrounds
Xenon drl facelift headlights
Black grill
Black wrapped trims and handles

Gunmetal alloys
Black calipers and hubs
Stage 2 custom map
De- cat, dpf delete
Straight ss rear pipes
Recently replaced throttle body and actuator rods but annoying yellow light still on !!
Next on the list is Dab, reverse camera and usb if possible.
Full write up soon when I get lights right and give car a good clean
 
You would need to replace the central convenience module with a facelift version that supports LED lights. The module will require coding to enable the LED lights. Also the module will have component protection which can only be done at an Audi dealer.

I take it when you did the front LED light you upgrade the central electrics to the facelift version.

Thanks for your reply, the front lights were fitted by an auto electrician so I'm not sure exactly what/ how he did it.
As far as I'm aware he re wired the lights and spent time on his vcds changing settings but I'm clueless in that area
Can you possibly point me in the right direction regarding the convenience module ?
What it is? Where to get it?
Thank you
 
As you know the pre faclift saloon never came with LED lights or boot lights and thehardware/software is not installed/fitted to correctly drive the LED lights. On facelift models Audi update the convenience module to support LED lights for saloon models. See this link it is item number 3. but there are 2 versions N & K not sure which one you need but both will work. http://www.partsbase.org/audi/audi-...tem-diagnosis-interface-for-data-bus-gateway/

Thank you for explaining, do you know wether my current module can be updated via vcds or do I need to buy another?
Thanks
 
There is no way of flashing any module with VCDS, You would need VAS or Vag Can pro to flash modules, but the convenience module cannot be flashed.

I would have thought that would have stopped all the LEDs from performing correctly - causing flickering and warning lights on dash
But mine work fine no flickering or warning lights
Just the brakes not lighting in correct sequence
Thanks for your info
Learn something new everyday on here!
Hopefully someone can pass some wiring info on to me ?....

Address 46: Central Conv 4F0907289G This module is not compatible with LED facelift lights, so without replacing this module you will not fix your rear lights. (the electrician replace the 09: Cent. Elect module to get the fronts working)

Address 09: Cent. Elect. Labels: Your auto electrician replaced this module to get the LED lights working, however the car needs to be taken to Audi to get component protection removed. Do you have any issue with the car at the moment like interior lights not working?

No issues whatsoever.
Everything works perfect as it should.
Only issues r with the led brake/ fog light
I will look into it further when I see the electrician next
Thanks you have been great help

Hey I'm in Detroit Michigan I've been on a couple websites trying to figure out the same thing I got another friend of mine trying to do the update to
 
Anyone have a facelift a6 on here willing to send me pics of their connector blocks to rear lights showing which colour wires go where pls?
