Why does the rear reading light in the Magotan stay on?
2 Answers
The rear reading light in the Magotan stays on due to issues with the control panel or the door lock switch. Control Panel: First, check if there is a problem with the rear reading light control panel. If there is an internal short circuit in the control panel, it can cause the rear light to stay on. Door Lock Switch: Inspect the door lock switch for any issues. If the door lock contact switch has a short circuit, it can result in the rear light staying on. Computer Diagnosis: Finally, it is recommended to use a computer to read the fault codes, check for any faults, and inspect the related control circuits or the body control module for potential issues.
I also encountered the issue of the rear reading light staying on when driving my Volkswagen Magotan, which might be caused by the rear door not being closed properly. The door switch can sometimes get stuck or misaligned, causing the sensor to mistakenly think the door is still open, so the light doesn't turn off. If the light remains on even after the door is properly closed, check if the manual switch is stuck in the 'on' position or if there's a short circuit in the wiring. Keeping the light on for too long can drain the battery, potentially making it difficult to start the car in the morning, which would be troublesome. It's recommended to first test by firmly closing all doors. If that doesn't work, temporarily turn off the power switch or ask a friend to help inspect it. Don't rush to spend a lot on repairs—safety comes first, but don't overlook this small detail, as it really affects nighttime driving experience and comfort.
