VW Golf Mk6 warning light for ALL lights - but they work
Discussion
Hi all,
Had the car for nearly a year, 2009 mk6 golf GT TDI, and randomly when i started it up this evening, the MFI showed warning messages, along with the dash light, for EVERY exterior light on the car. I have confirmed that they are all working, however the hazards/indicators when turned on seem to be "stuck" for about 10 seconds, ie. all the bulbs turn on but dont flash, then they start flashing. The mirror indicators however, flash straight away.
Not had the issue before, and turning the car off and taking the key out before trying again doesnt change anything.
Any thoughts?

Anyone got an update on this issue ?. My Golf Mk6 has just started doing this. I noticed over the past 6 months a couple of times I got home from a short trip and the cooling fan was over running with a burning smell in the air, next day all was well again. Can't help thinking that something somewhere is melting.

Since i had all the light warnings come up, I haven't had a single issue, which is rather bizarre that is just happened once for 10 minutes then disappeared again. Im hoping it doesnt happen again, but if it does then im just going to go into VW/specialist to see if it can be worked out.
This happened this morning on my Mk6 Golf. Every lamp in turn reported as faulty and indicators on permanently (not the mirror LEDs) and then mysteriously fixed itself and all working OK. I can find several posts describing the problem but none with a solution. Does it get worse? Or more frequent to the point where a dealer can run diagnostics?
Help appreciated. Paul.

Hi Paul,Help appreciated. Paul.
Its been a few years now since I had the car, and this incident. What I do know is it never happened again - I didnt have to change anything, go to the dealers etc. It seemed to be a total random one off!

If your car is a diesel, the burning smell and the fans running were because you switched off the car before the DPF had finished regeneration.Edited by mickgomez on Friday 1st May 09:16
