9. Replace the defective bulb with a new bulb of the same type.
10. Carefully insert the bulb holder into the tail light cluster and turn it anticlockwise until the bulb holder engages.

Fitting the tail light cluster

11. Carefully put the tail light cluster into the opening in the body.
Use one hand to hold the tail light cluster in the fitting position while using the other hand to tighten the securing screw

13. Check that the tail light cluster is positioned correctly and securely.
14. Connect the connector to the bulb holder and press into place.
15. Close the section of side trim in the luggage compartment near the tail light cluster against the direction of the arrow
→ Boot lid
16. Close the boot lid
The illustrations show the left-hand tail light cluster. The right-hand tail light cluster housing is a mirror image of the one shown.
There are various types of tail light cluster, so the position and design of covers, bulbs and bulb holders may vary from those shown in the
illustrations.
In tail light clusters with LEDs, some light elements may be fitted with normal bulbs. These bulbs can be changed.

LED lights on the vehicles

First read and observe the introductory information and safety warnings
The following lights may use LEDs:
Brake light, rear fog light, tail light, turn signal and reversing light in the tail light clusters.
Dipped beam, main beam, daytime running lights, side lights and turn signal in vehicles with LED headlights.
The number plate light
Owners cannot replace the LEDs themselves. If some LEDs fail, this may be an indication that more elements are on the point of failure. If this
happens, have the lights checked and replaced if necessary at a qualified workshop.

Changing fuses

Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
→ Fuses in the dash panel
→ Fuses in the engine compartment
→ Fuse table for fuses in the dash panel
→ Fuse tables for fuses in the engine compartment
→ Changing a blown fuse
At the time of print we are unable to provide an complete overview of the locations of the fuses for the electrical consumers. This is because the
vehicle is under constant development, because fuses are assigned differently depending on the vehicle equipment level and because several
consumers may use a single fuse. You can get more information about the fuse layout from a Volkswagen dealership.
Several electrical consumers could share a single fuse. Conversely, a single consumer could have more than one fuse.
Therefore fuses should only be replaced when the cause of the fault has been rectified. If a new fuse blows shortly after insertion, have the
electrical system checked by a qualified workshop as soon as possible.
Fuses must always be replaced by a new fuse with the same amp rating (same colour and markings) and size.
