Beetle – Instrument Cluster Illumination
July 30: Update to model and model year applicability.
The instrument cluster illumination is controlled by a photocell inside the cluster. If an illumination concern
is suspected, darken the area over the photocell, or use a flashlight to simulate natural light changes, to
see how the illumination is affected. See figure 1 below for example of the photocell location based on a
2011 Jetta sedan. Location can change based on model.
