fabbromix: Ciao e Benvenuto nel forum
I've limited my response to your specific question about the famous wire 9 from the handle to the control unit BCM. Here's a wiring diagram that I developed some time ago that shows how the 9 wires are connected between the Euro-switch (what you call "the handle") and the BCM.
If your car wasn't factory fitted with the light (Rain/Humidity) sensor, then the missing wire would likely be the one that operates the AUTO function. As you can see from my picture, this is the connection to PIN #2 on the Euro-switch and the other end of the wire is connected to PIN #16 of Socket C on the BCM.
It's easy to find PIN #2 on the Euro-switch because the pin numbers are stamped on the base of the connector. The BCM connections are shown in the picture below
Good luck with the project

Thanks for the welcome ...
Excellent explanation and photos you have clarified many doubts in me about.
you post a picture of various plugs you can indicate which I may be suitable for Socket and auto switch?

fabbromix: Alas I don't have access to ETKA, so unfortunately I can't supply the part numbers for the two female connectors.
But the pins need to accommodate 0.35 square millimeter wire. I've checked on my test bench and the BCM male-pin (which will mate with the Socket C connector) is the smallest size - there are 3 x different size pins on the BCM.
Perhaps another forum colleague here can respond?

perfect Don is no possibility that I can access from private ETKA?

Sorry to ask a question if it's already been answered but has anybody managed to get the front tear drop function to work on a MK7 R? The rear is already active. I'm trying to use an OBD11.
Thanks

Reedy: Hi. I've not done this tweak and I think that I recall reading that some have had problems implementing the teardrop facility (not sure though). Anyway - here's how it's done with an OBD11 dongle:
- Select Central electrics module (@ address hex09)
- Select Security access
- Enter the magic number 31347
- Follow the screens below:

I remember reading somewhere the other day how to disable the safety message that appears periodically on the discovery system telling you to obey the road rules or something like that. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
