Hi , the warning buzzer that alerts you when you remove keys from ignition with lights on has stopped working. Car is 2000 model polo gti. I've looked at wiring diagram but can't locate it...anybody help. Thanks.

Thanks for the advice cuprabob...have checked the interior light and all functioning ok ..interior light comes on when car opened on remote fob or door opened from inside. Did see on ebay vw light buzzers for sale...which may indicate it's a common fault...I can't see any lights buzzer on my basic wiring diagram but will investigate further.

Thanks rich..that was my suspicion when it didn't show on wiring diagram...don't think it's worth changing out instrument cluster to effect repair.....will just live with it for now.
