14 - 10 Headlight Harness (MK7) (MQB)

This specialized harness is designed for Mk7 platform vehicles equipped with the Bi-Xenon lighting package. It simplifies the process of installing aftermarket headlights by converting the 14-pin Bi-Xenon harness to a 10-pin standard configuration. Here’s everything you need to know:
 
Key Features of the Harness:
Vehicle Compatibility:
Exclusively designed for Mk7 models.
Not compatible with Mk7.5 models equipped with LED headlights.
Connector Conversion:
Converts the 14-pin Bi-Xenon spec harness (found in vehicles with the lighting package) to a 10-pin OEM standard configuration, enabling seamless integration with aftermarket lights.
Error Prevention:
Designed to work without additional coding for basic functionality, though certain adjustments are recommended for an error-free experience.
 
Recommendations for VCDS Configuration:
To avoid potential system errors and optimize performance:
Disable AFS (Adaptive Front-lighting System):
AFS functionality is not supported by this harness or most aftermarket headlights. Coding it out eliminates unnecessary warnings in VCDS.
Disable Auto-Leveling:
Auto-leveling is not required with this harness and can be disabled in VCDS to prevent errors.
AFS Errors:
While AFS-related errors may appear in diagnostics, they do not affect the performance or functionality of the harness.
 
Important Installation Notes:
Check for Bulbs:
Many aftermarket headlight manufacturers do not include main beam bulbs with their products. Be sure to verify bulb inclusion before installation to avoid complications during setup. Installing bulbs after the headlights are mounted can be more difficult.
 
Benefits of the Harness:
Plug-and-Play Design:
Streamlines the installation process by eliminating the need for complex wiring modifications.
Factory-Like Functionality:
Offers a reliable solution that mimics OEM performance without the need for extensive reprogramming.
Error-Free Operation:
Coding out AFS and auto-leveling prevents unnecessary warnings in VCDS while maintaining seamless headlight operation.
 
This harness provides a practical and efficient solution for upgrading to aftermarket headlights on the Mk7 platform, ensuring a straightforward and reliable installation process.
