    Hey,
    I have a 2016 Polo 1.2 TSI (MK5 6R).
    Last month I did a complete projector retrofit. With D2S mini projectors in low beam and HID's in high. Also a led strip as a parking light.
    Now yesterday the controller for the Led strip fried up. I replaced it with a traditional parking light bulb.
    Since then both the front and rear parking lights on the driver side are not working (Passenger side lights are working both front and rear.). Everything is working fine.
    I checked all the fuses and bulbs which seems to be all intact. Also I tried replacing the headlight switch but still the lights won't light up.
    I don't want to take it to the service center as it is very far and because of the modifications they will simply refuse to rectify anything.
    What can be the reason for all this ? How can it be rectified?
    Thanks in advance
    Cheers!!!

    If you return everything back to stock, does the original lighting set up work without issues? If so, then something in your retrofit kit is kaput.

    It is hard to know without knowing anything about the oem loom/bus etc and the kit... but as you say that the parking lights work on one side but not the other... I'd think the retrofit kit is probably at fault.
