Golf VI R :: Interior LEDs Flickering A Lot


Mar 8, 2016

I moved over some interior LED's from my past cars (MKV R32 & MK6 GTI, same fitment for basically all of the bulbs) and they're flickering a lot.

From what I've seen, it's only the dome lights -- the vanity lights, trunk lights & footwell lights are all fine...

I think it's important to note that these LED's worked fine in my past cars. I've reached out to deAutoKey to see if they can replace them...

Golf VI R :: Interior LEDs Flicker Badly

I'm looking for a source that sells high quality LEDs. I already have LEDs in my R but they flicker horribly. I've sent the LEDs back for replacement twice and each time they were replaced they started to flicker within a month. I don't use the lights very often but I can't deal with the flickering anymore.

I won't mention the company I purchased the LEDs from to avoid any favoritism or slander.

Golf VI R :: Interior LEDs Blinking On And Off Every Few Seconds

Installed an ecs LED interior kit last night. Didn't go for a drive, just installed the LEDs. this morning i change some codes 1 at a time starting with rear tails byte 18. moved on to byte 4 bit 4 and made the change to allow for window up and down after the doors are opened. after making this change i noticed the interior LEDs blinking on and off every few seconds.

They didn't do that last night but I wasn't sitting in the car for a few minutes either. so i change what i did back to stock and the LEDs are still blinking. Not sure if I accidentally clicked on something I shouldn't have or what. And my computer crashed the other day and i lost my full scan and copy of coping. is this normal for LED interior lights? if not can someone hook me up with the long code for a NA car?

I did do the factory reset on the mfi computer and the rear head liner lights stopped blinking but the fronts still blink.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: 2003 - Instrument Cluster / Interior LEDs Work Sometimes

I just picked up an '03 Golf and decided to put in the euro switch I had from my old Jetta. When I turn the headlights on (either parking or full) the instrument cluster blue back lighting and the red interior LEDs work only sometimes. When they work, they all work, but probably about 9 out of 10 times, they just won't come on at all, so I have to sit there turning the switch on and off repeatedly until they do come on. What could be causing this? It's definitely not a fuse since they do come on eventually, so my first thought was maybe a relay, but which one? What else could be going on?

Golf/GTI VI :: Flickering Driver Screen And Interior Dash Lights / Speedo Needles?

I went to get in car today, and the driver screen, needles, and dash lighting was flicking or pulsing.. like a wave rolling through the lcd. its got 1k miles on it, jsw tdi.

i did open the trunk, without unlocking from fob, just trunk button, then it auto locked again when i shut it. have never done that before, so maybe this causes it? i let it sit awhile, and all back to normal.

on a side note, got my 20% tint on all around today and looking good need a drop then wheels.

Ford Excursion :: Interior Dome LEDs 39 Mm Or 44 Mm?

I want to start swapping out the stock lights for LEDs, beginning with the interior ones. I have read the de facto standard thread about LED swap here: [URL]...

For interior lights, the tacked thread mentions 39mm Festoon. However, when I go to Super Bright LEDs and put in my year, make and model (2002 EX), I get 578 LED Bulb - 8 LED Festoon - 44mm for replacement interior bulbs. Which is correct? 39mm or 44mm? Is there that big of a difference between the two? Will either size work?

I just want to make sure I order the right size to fit a 2002 EX. ETA: I want to start with ordering a few each of 5900K and 4300K just to see the difference in the truck and want to make sure I get the right ones. I don't want the Close Encounters look going on inside.

Passat (B6) :: Interior / Dash Lights Flickering

The last month or so, I have noticed that my dash board lights (red lights) and my actual interior lights that come on when you open the doors to vehicle will flicker sometimes...And it can get bad I guess and annoying. It's more of it pulsating really. I noticed today while driving home and I had the radio on loud it was doing it and I do not know if was just in my head that it was doing it more when the radio was loud or what, but this is ridiculous.

Sonata I45 (YF - 2011+) :: Interior Lights Flickering After HID Install

I got the aftermarket lights through Yefeng, with quad HIDS. So after a while, Cluster lights, Vanity mirror lights, tail lights, cabin roof lights all started to flicker or strobe faintly. Very noticeable either when lights are on or off, drive or park.

Car has less than 12k miles.

I've been driving it like that with no problems. Except one morning before I left to work, car wouldn't start. (Happened randomly) Battery is good, alternator is good. Could something be pulling power from the alternator? I have no clue.

Sonata NF (2006-10) :: Headlights / Interior Lighting Flickering

Past week I have noticed a flicker on all lighting (head/taillights, interior lights) on my '06 Sonata (4cyl). Seems to be an intermittent problem, as one time in three there is no flicker, and everything seems to be fine.

Yesterday, when pulling into my driveway, I momentarily lost all lighting/radio/fan for what seemed to me a full second and a half before everything "came back on".

I've checked fuses, battery cables (batty is new, 6mos)... Is this alternator related? What else should I be looking at? My Sonata has been bulletproof. No mechanical issues whatsoever....

Passat (B6) :: Interior Light Flickering When Locked The Doors

Totally clueless of what is happening, just now I was taking a video of the issue to post here when I noticed on the dmf showing the trunk lid like open flickering also is that where the problem may be...? I checked the bulb in the trunk and is on and working including the led stripes that put there to get more light... I taped on the trunk bulb...

Ford Excursion :: Interior Lights Started Flickering And Then Went Off

Today while the drivers door was open the interior lights started flickering and then all interior lights went off. Looked at the manual and do not see interior light fuse or relay. Also while looking at the manual, the lights flickered a few times and I could hear clicking behind the steering column. They lights never came back on. The interior "roller" switch is in the correct position, its also does not turn on the interior lights. I have also lubricated all the latches. What can I check or do to troubleshoot?

Sonata I45 (YF - 2011+) :: Flickering Headlights And Interior Lights Occasionally

I recently purchased a 2011 Sonata GLS and I love it. However, I'm having a slight electrical issue.

While driving at night with the headlights on occasionally they'll dim and flicker and often cut off completely while driving or parked. The interior and dash lights will also switch off with the headlights, however the radio will still continue to play. The lights only stay off for a second and then come back on. Sometimes I can make them flicker and go off by turning on my blinker or switching between high and low beams.

I'm trying to figure out if it's a problem with the alternator, the battery, or the fuses and if this is a known issue.

Volvo - S40 :: 2007 - Hard To Start When Cold / Headlights And Interior Lights Flickering

I've had my '07 Volvo S40 2.4i for almost a year. It has a little over 60K miles on it and is serviced regularly. Within the last 3 months, I've noticed some weird things happening occasionally:

-Trouble starting when cold (I understand this is pretty common with a lot of cars.)
-Headlights & interior lights flickering
-Going over "bumps" in road causing dash display lights to illuminate for a second, radio to shut off, and loud system "BEEP" comes through the speakers (this has happened 3 times total, all on the same day.)
-AC stops cooling periodically I've had the system scanned for the AC issue and it seems that there was a "Pump pressure" message that cleared itself at one point and am guessing the same thing has happened the next few times it's done this.

I also asked that the battery be checked to see if it needed to be replaced soon. The mechanic said the battery was fine and thinks it's something wrong with the entire electrical system.

Lexus RX 2004-09 :: 2008 RX350 - Interior Light Flickering With Clicking Noise When Pull Key Out

I have a 2008 RX350. When i shut off the engine and pull the key out i hear a constant clicking sound. I dont really know where its coming from but i can kind of pin point it maybe to the windows or door i'm not too sure. I also notice the interior light flickering to the same pattern as the clicking noise.

Second problem - in the middle of the night the alarm goes off! Its the alarm without the horn noise. For some reason i cant switch it off with the fob key. No matter what i do i cant switch it off. So it goes on for about 20 seconds and stops. I just leave the car unlocked after that and it doesnt come back. The alarm noise is coming from the boot....

Third problem Now the navigation screen flickers. Blacks out then the lexus emblem appears then switches back on itself.

Ford Super Duty (1999-2016) :: ABS Light Is On / AC Not Working And Interior Lights Flickering

I have a 2006 F250 6.0L Crew Cab 4x4 that started acting up. It started two days ago when I noticed my windshield wipers were only working at one speed. Then today my wife took the truck to work and she said the radio stopped working on her way to work. Then she gets in this afternoon and the ABS light is on, the A/C isn't working, the windows are super slow and the interior lights are flickering. She isn't home yet so I haven't checked the fuse block. Where would you start looking?

Golf V R32 :: License Plate LEDs Went Haywire - Dim Light

I ordered an LED interior package from Deautokey and they also came with license plate LEDs. The interior looks great, the license plates looked great except for one thing, the right side was slightly yellower than the left. So I contacted Deautokey and they sent me two new ones:

These are identical to the original LEDs except in the old ones the squares are arranged in a diamond pattern but I don't think that matters.

Tonight, I was replacing the right side LED hoping that replacing one is all I had to do to match colors but in order to see better I kept the plate lights on. Well when I went to pull out the housing I forgot that they were still on and pulled it out anyways, there may have been a noise when that happened but I forgot.

I put the new one in, turned the plate lights back on and found that it was dim, I rotated it and same look. I tried the second replacement, equally dim, so I thought "okay, I'll just give up and put the old ones in." Did that and they are now these ones became dim!

What happened!? Did pulling it out while it was still on (only did it that first time BTW) mess something up? Did the new ones being in there mess something up? There is no warning light or message in my instrument cluster.

Golf/GTI VI :: Foot Well / License Plate LEDs Throwing Error Codes?

Any LED I can throw in the footwells / license plate area that won't throw a code? I'm using the ones from superbrightleds.

They worked everywhere except the license plate and the footwells. Everytime I get in my car I have to see (check license plate lights!) and a bulb out icon.

Golf IV R32 :: CEL Flickering Sometimes?

So I've had my R for almost a year now. After a few months of ownership I thought I noticed the CEL flickering sometimes. Not terribly often, just once in a while. Enough to see this and wonder. It would always be off again by the time I looked down. Started to annoy and confuse me... then I figured if there was something really amiss it wouldn't flicker. It would just stay on. I did not realize that this was happening only at night. Just didn't notice that part.

The other evening I figured out what's been going on. It wasn't flickering at all. It was the silver button in the middle of the speedometer catching some passing light just the right way for a second. It's like half an inch from the CEL, after all.
