Light on Warning
Has anyone retro fitted a lights on warning to their vehicle? I regularly leave them switched on and a warning buzzer or something would help.

Re: Light on Warning
Yes you can get a relay from a later Mk3 Golf and possibly Mk4 Golf which slots into the fuse box which will buzz if you leave the lights on.
Relay No 292

Re: Light on Warning
Can’t get tapatalk to work so found a picture of the location of where to put the 292 relay.
Also a good upgrade if you do use the car in rain or daily drive is a programmable intermediate wiper relay so you can change the time between wipes from every second to 45 seconds compare to the standard 6 seconds. No 99 is the relay and again mk3 and possibly mk4 Golf relay or as with the other relay they do appear on eBay every now and then.
Both relays pictured here.

Re: Light on Warning
Awesome, thx for the responses. A simple as a relay! Now to find one - Joost?
Reading some other VW forums, there is a suggestion that relay 99 is also needed - the variable wiper one.

Re: Light on Warning
Mine works a little strange but still makes some noise.
If the blower fan is off and I leave the headlights on I get a constant beep, if the fan is in position 1,2 or 3 I get a beep, beep, beep sound if I leave the lights on…. Same if I leave the indicator on..
