    Having issues with my headlights, i have c6 s6 2010 , the passenger side headlight is acting up. The problems i am having is the parking lights stay on along with the turn signal stay on, Even when car is off. Also my rear passenger taillight stays on. I have to disconnect battery to turn them off. Also as I’m driving parking lights also blink or act as a turn signal, very weird. People think im flashing my headlights at them.


    Is there a passenger module or driver module or relay ? Where is it? I need help locating or any advice on fixing this issue. Please help & advise. Thank you .

    Do you have VCDS scan results (or similar) available? It sounds like you maybe have some water ingress or a bad ground (possibly caused by water ingress lol). When was the last time the sunroof drains were checked and cowl drains were cleaned?

    Thanks for reply, I do but nothing seems to come up on the VCDS other than the front led left bar malfunctioning. I’ll log again and post up .

    An interesting data point would be to do a full scan with the key off and see which modules respond (after verifying that all present modules are responding with key on). This would give you an idea of whether you have a module staying awake when it shouldn't or if this is solely an issue with a power path (i.e. loss of ground, etc). Water ingress can make modules do strange things, but loss of ground can as well since the module will typically "find" ground through one or more of its connected peripherals, which in turn will power that peripheral (with an amount of current similar to that required to power the module which has lost its ground).
