Volkswagen Golf Service & Repair Manual: General description
Caution
| If excessive force is exerted on sockets without
illumination, the retaining sleeve may be damaged. |
| Only illuminated sockets (cigarette lighter) can be
removed with the puller T 40148. |
| The puller does not manage to release the locking
lugs of sockets without illuminated retaining sleeve. |
| Usually sockets without illumination cannot be
removed without being damaged. |
|
| On some vehicles, the illumination is not provided by a
light bulb, but by an LED (light-emitting diode), depending on
the equipment level. This LED is permanently attached to the
retaining sleeve and cannot be renewed separately. |
| Retaining sleeves with a light bulb are available in
different versions. On the one version, the light bulb can be
replaced separately; on the other version, the light bulb cannot
be replaced separately. In this case, the bulb carrier has to be
replaced together with the light bulb. |
| Depending on the space requirement, the vehicles are
equipped with various electric sockets and cigarette lighter
sockets. They differ in length and have different electrical
connections. In the case of electric sockets or cigarette
lighter sockets with a wiring tail, it may be necessary to
perform additional work in order to gain access to the
connector. |
