I did it a while back and forgot where I found it online. But I remember the coding for amber side marker is the same as the B8.5. give this a try and see if this works.

[09 – Cent. Elect.] [Coding - 07] -> Long Coding Helper -> Byte 10
Bit 3 - Set to 0 to disable amber side markers (U.S. vehicles)

Cheers all
Same problem here.
I tryied to enter the MODULE 76- Parking Aid to activate it, but without sucess. I think our car doesn't have this module.
Tryied to activate the visual parking aid, on the central eletric module, but, again, nothing happened.
I'm using obdeleven.

Can someone help us?

Where are you located? In NA, all cars come with the visual indicator.

In VWs, you need to change the module to get a visual indicator for cars that come only with the beep. It might be the same for Audi too.

Tried this one with no luck, but went ahead and found how to do it without long coding.

Central Electric 09
Coding
sidemarker_via_lcm
From ACTIVE change to NOT_ACTIVE

Great to know this is possible salvadorsantana - does anyone know if there is anyway to do this through OBDeleven? I'm not a programmer so I only have and use the OBDeleven app.

I'm im Brazil.
The visual indicator only comes on a higher trim level, with reversing camera (not my case).
When I used, for the first time, the obdeleven, the 76- Parking Aid module was not there. I enable it, but coudn't enter (problaby because the hardware was not installed).

On the module 5f- control unit, on adaptation, there was an option called "OPS_DIsplay_in_dash_board_display_unit". I changed it to "active", but nothing happened.

On the UK, there is a Option, called "Parking System Plus" as a £395 extra on all models, that enable the visual parking aid (i think they put it as standard on 17/17 models).

A friend told me that the new A3, on the basic trim, has the same issue. Only beeps.

On time, my car doesn't have parking sensor on the front.

So yes. I'm guessing the modules are missing which is why you can't access it and code it. My friends buy modules from Russia for their VWs since India gets watered down cars too. The retrofit it as a DIY and then activate stuff that European or American cars have.

Thanks Salvador I'd be lost without this forum. I'm still getting up to speed with the OBDeleven app and I'm not finding the "*Central Electric 09" menu or option in the app to get started.
