Removal of the Interior Light and Replacement of Bulbs

Model: Audi A3 MK 2, 8P - Years 2003-2013
Part: Differential

If the interior lighting has stopped working, or if you want to change its colour, follow these steps with a screwdriver.
Insert the tip of a very thin screwdriver between the headlining and the light fitting, gently prying until, as shown in the video, it comes free from its clips.
Grip the side of the bulb and gently push it down to release it from the upper tab, then pull it out. To insert a new bulb, perform the reverse operation: insert the tip of the bulb into the hole of the upper tab and push at the bottom to ensure it clips in place. At this point, refit the light by first securing the lower clips and then applying moderate pressure to secure the upper ones.

How to Reset the Central Locking of the Volkswagen Golf 4?

If the central locking system of the Volkswagen Golf 4 is not working, it is likely necessary to reset the system: to do this, open the driver's door and detach the side panel of the dashboard next to the steering wheel. Under this panel, you will find the fuses, including the one for the central locking, which is indicated in the manual as number 14. To reset the system, remove this fuse from its housing, then reinsert it or replace it with a new one of the same amperage: this will reset the central locking system.
