Hi guys
I was driving up the motorway the other day and decided to switch my lights on, as soon as I switched them on a message appeared on the info screen "Check Right Conering Light" so I pulled into the next service station and got out to have a look. Although the message had come up I could not see a light out. Now everytime I turn the dipped beams on (xenon) this message pops up.

It would be much appriciated if someone could tell me what the cornering light is or if they have had a similar message pop up.

Much appriciated
Jay

Do a search here - others have had grounding and corroded socket problems.

Just in Case ....

Right Cornering light is the light that lights up to illuminate the corner as you turn right, when you stopped and had a look, did you wind the steering wheel over to the right as if cornering ? If wheels where pointe straight ahead you'd not see the right cornering light lit

note, when one light burns out Neither side will work, this is the small round light that comes on when turning steering wheel to left or right.

I had this problem on my cayenne, and the dealer replaced the light socket for the corning light, the part only cost $7-9 and its just a small black socket that the bulb goes into. Moisture usually causes it to go bad. Even though my car was out of warranty he only charged me for the part and it took 5 minutes to replace it.

I've had this problem off and on which was finally resolved when they changed the wiring/plug that the headlight unit slides into.
