Having connected your cable to the car and using the VAG-COM software, the ignition
should be on. (The engine doesnt need to be running). Normally a good idea to turn off
your lights set switch to 0.
Leave the MMI switched on as you will need to use the MMI screen to view the hidden
menu and such like.
When running tests it is normal for the car to flash up warnings like ESP Failure Warning
on the DIS, accompanied by various clicks as the car runs through these checks.

Note: when you change a bit in any one of the bytes for example change bit 6 in byte 16 from 0 to 1 you
have to tab or arrow into the next byte otherwise simply changing 0 to 1 and then clicking exit and do it
will not work.

Okay, so here is a simple task (1/5) that will get you accessing bytes, changing bit values and
activating the hidden menu.
The mod enables you to adjust the footwell lighting on Audi A4 B8/A5 cars that do not have the
adjustment menu enabled as standard.
There are three stages to this, first is enabling the Ambiance lighting and second is activating the
hidden menu and lastly setting the lighting in the MMI to control the brightness.

The lights stay on all the time the car is on when headlight is set to off.
It has been confirmed the lights will go on and off with the light sensor if the headlight
switch is set to Auto.
This does work on both the front and rear foot lights.
If you turn the lights all the way down the lights will go to full brightness when you open
the door. Master light switch will not control these lights at all anymore. They will work
separately through the MMI.
Lights will not go to 100% in Ambiance mode but will when door is opened.

more experienced than I, who discovered and saw fit to share their find in the public domain
many thanks to each of you.
