Purpose and Function of the Connector

The presented connector with its plug is an electrical system component responsible for supplying power and control signals to the right rear LED light. Its vehicle location is specified as Rear – Right Side, allowing for unambiguous identification of the installation area and reducing the risk of selecting the wrong part.

Thanks to its factory-fitted design for a specific LED light, the connector ensures correct pin assignment, which is crucial for the proper operation of parking lights, brake lights, turn signals, or license plate illumination (depending on the vehicle's configuration). The appropriate plug geometry facilitates installation and minimizes the risk of contact damage during connection.

Original Origin and Compatibility

This component comes from the Volkswagen group, meaning it adheres to the vehicle manufacturer's quality standards and offers full compatibility with the factory electrical system. An original connector eliminates the need for wiring modifications, soldering, or using adapters, which is particularly important for modern LED lights sensitive to voltage drops and connection errors.

The connector with its plug is especially useful in situations where the factory connector has been damaged (e.g., due to a collision, contact corrosion, or improper light removal). Using an original component allows for the restoration of correct lighting function without compromising safety and reliability.

Installation Characteristics

Its vehicle location as Rear, Right clearly indicates that the connector is intended for the right rear light. This specification simplifies the work for mechanics and automotive electricians, reducing the time needed to select the correct part. Using the original plug allows for a near plug-and-play installation, maintaining the factory wire routing.

When replacing a light or repairing the electrical system, it is advisable to check the condition of the connectors, insulation, and wire mounting. A correctly selected connector with its plug reduces the risk of errors in the vehicle's diagnostic systems and lighting issues, such as flickering or intermittent failures.

Product Condition and Service Application

The offered connector with its plug is a used part, making it an attractive solution for post-accident repairs, lighting system servicing, or restoring a vehicle to a factory-like condition. A used component allows for reduced repair costs while maintaining compliance with the original manufacturer's specifications.

It is suitable for both professional workshops and DIY users who service their cars and expect parts that are precisely matched to a specific model and version of the rear LED light. By maintaining the original connector standard, typical problems with universal solutions, such as misaligned pins or leaky connections, can be avoided.

If you are planning a comprehensive repair or upgrade of the rear lighting zone in your Volkswagen and need other parts from the same group, such as wires, connectors, or wiring harnesses, check the available parts in the Other Volkswagen category.
