Hi all,
Following advice on this forum, i started doing a proper retrofit for auto lights for my pre facelift seat leon mk3 st. The car had no climatronic, so the rearview mirror didn’t have the mounting point for the sensor. I used a plastic adapter from aliexpress to attach to the windshield and provide a mounting point for the sensor. From the same kit i routed the wiring harness to the bcm pin 28, supply and ground. I tried doing some coding that i found online but the auto lights and wipers don’t work. I see from trouble codes that the BCM sees the sensor correctly, so the connection is fine, i only need the correct coding.
the sensor part number is 81D955547B. I have a elm327 device and the Car Scanner OBD ios app. I restored all coding to original so that i start from where i was before.
also, the cable bundle going to the light switch has 9 cables, so from what i understand i don’t need to do that particular routing to the bcm.
has anyone ever tried retrofitting the RHLS in this situation? What coding did work for you?
one thing that i did was accidentally damage the gel pad, so i removed it for the time being and ordered a replacement. Can it be the culprit?
Below are attached images of the kit
