VW Passat headlights turn off highbeam automatically? AFS issue?
Post Body

Hei all,

Light issue with highbeams and AFS.
I have a new to me, otherwise pretty old VW Jetta 07, Manual Diesel. 295,000km.

I get the AFS sensor inoperative error. So I googled around, found it's often a bulb issue (but they are both turning on). Then found two things out.

  1. Left side AFS harness has one broken wire and another taped one, haven't checked underneath if it's solid. (Nothing much happened when I had everything running and brought contact to the broken wire, #13 marked on the harness, yellow-black.)

  2. The stranger thing. When I turn on highbeams, only the right turns on (ok, bad filament on left). but then... the highbeam turns itself off after about 5 seconds. What is that all about?
