When I’m camped up with the sliding door open, is there a way of turning off the twin cab lights? I don’t need them on and they’re a drain on the battery. 2012 T5.1.
Thanks.
Thanks.
Excellent, i tried to look for a photo but i didn't or couldn't find it on my computer
Just take the bulb outYes, that what I do with my lights.
The only light I can't switched off is the small light in the boot. There are different posts about this somewhere. I think this is annoying. Some people say it switches off after 15 minutes, but mine doesn't.

Must have changed on the T6 or a fault. Mine goes off after 10 minutes even if the tailgate is left open.Good evening,
As long as a door is open the little light in the boot stays on. During camping it is more than likely that a door (or at least the tailgate) is open for hours on end. Why the light either won't go off or why there isn't a switch is beyond me.
On one side the VW designer have great ideas on the other side they fail. For example why is the handle for the drawer under the seat on the far side? When you outside of the van you have to reach inside to open the door - isn't this a wee bit annoying?
I don't believe that the little light will use a lot of electricity and sometimes it actually helps and because of this I leave the bulb in the light - for the moment .
