    Hi All,

    I have a 2012 UK Passat Estate TDI Bluemotion. I am losing my hearing and despite spending a bucket of dosh on hearing aids I can no longer hear the indicator "click". Indicators work fine but I just cannot hear the "click - click". Having researched the wiring system I find that the wiring to the indicator lights is apparently multiplexed precluding the installation of a small beeper in the circuit, this may also switch the computer into "towing" mode due to detection of another "device" on the system. Does anybody know if any of the indicator system lights are the old fashioned drop direct to earth or where/how I might wire in a fused spur to run a beeper or beepers.


    I suppose I could alternatively piggy-back onto the item generating the "click" sound if I could identify where such an item is. I do know the older passats had it all built in to the hazard warning switch but I think that was changed a number of years ago.


    Any suggestions would be most welcome, I do not wish to blow the canbus/controller system !

    Many thanks in advance.

    If that is not possible perhaps the left/right illuminations on the dash can be enhanced with some form of magnification making them more obvious.
