Hi all, this is my first forum post so please let me know if I’m doing it all wrong 😂
 

Can’t anyone help with the following. 

 

I’ve recently purchased power folding mirrors for my A3 8V PFL.

 

I understand I need the following for the retrofit:

• Power folding mirrors 
• New door modules 
• Mirror switch
• Optic
• Interior Door handle / window switch surround

 

My original door module part numbers are

 

5Q0959393 B

5Q0959392 B

 

The configuration part number also has a B at the end.

 

I purchased the following door modules 

 

5Q0959593 B

5Q0959592 B

 

Now…

 

After installing I took it round to my neighbour who has VCDS who was going to code it all in for me. When attempting to code…

 

The drivers side was already showing as coded in, and did fold… BUT…. All of my window switches are backwards. So I wind the window down, it goes up, I tilt the mirror up it goes right and so on. Also my puddle lights not coming on, neither is the little reflective light on the door shuts. I think my alarm has also been disabled (I’m assuming linked to the disable alarm switch also in the door shut).

 

My passenger side wouldn’t let him code, and was throwing up an error saying open circuit. After pulling the mirror back off I found one tiny graze exposing the some wire, which I must’ve caught during the install. So that’s all been repaired now but I’ve not had time to get over to see if it will now allow him to code.

 

I’m confident the passenger side should be good to go now but I’m baffled by the drivers door working backwards.

 

I originally purchased the wrong door module for the drivers side

 

5Q0959593 E

 

But have now replaced it with the correct module 5Q0959593 B.

 

Is there more to the coding side that needs to be done? 

 

Any help or input would be much appreciated.

I'd definitely say the module needs needs resetting. I've never heard of this happening before

Hi Steve, thanks for the response.

Do you know how would I go about resetting the module? I’m sure I read somewhere it can’t be done on VCDS?
