Where is the ambient light switch for the Golf 8?
1 Answers
To turn off the ambient lights in the Golf, there is a control knob for the lights located on the left side at the bottom of the steering wheel. First, press the knob 1-2 millimeters, then rotate it counterclockwise to the end to turn on the ambient lights. To turn them off, rotate the knob counterclockwise back to its original position. Ambient lights in the car are decorative lighting, usually in colors like red, blue, or green, primarily to make the cabin more vibrant at night, enhance the atmosphere, and create an interior mood. Below are the drawbacks of installing ambient lights in a vehicle: 1. Affects driving safety: Flashing or overly bright ambient lights can impair the driver's view outside the car, divert their attention, and compromise nighttime driving safety. 2. Damages the car battery: It increases power consumption to some extent, affecting the car battery's lifespan. 3. Blows the fuse: While ambient lights are convenient for passengers, they offer no benefit to the car itself. Excessive external power consumption may blow the fuse. 4. Low practicality: Ambient lights are only available in some high-end models, offering limited practical benefits. The aesthetic appeal comes at the cost of safety, making ambient lights a flashy yet impractical feature.
