audi retrofit help

[shafA6]

recently bought some rear lights to retrofit to my audi a6 c7 2012, the rear lights are ones that can be found on some of the newish models. i had them fit in, plugged in and everything fit fine but the lights seemed to be mapped differently, for example when you reverse, the indicator would go on and none of the other lights would come on and if you were just driving forward only some parts of the lights would come on. i was told that i had to get them programmed for my car, but i haven't found anyone who can do this. i looked at alternatives like adapters and modules but i am unsure if they would work or not. i really need help

Did you get oem lights ? Whats the part number on the new ones ? . Codding requires vcds software

Welcome to the forum Amir, you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 🙂

Im guessing you're trying to upgrade to the sliding indicators? 

piotr is right is saying they need coding to the car but I believe you need a different light module as well. 

cheers
