Hello community,
I'm having a problem with my wife's Fabia.
after troubleshooting a different issue (which has now been resolved).
Will I be able to handle this problem myself, or do I need to go to the  ?
The fuses have all been checked, so it shouldn't be a problem with them.
Thank you for your help.

Please provide a more detailed explanation  .
- Error description
- previous errors
- What repair attempts were made?
Unfortunately, that won't work.

Okay, here's the entire story.
The battery was dead, and my father-in-law came to jump-start the car.
Unfortunately, he had reversed the polarity, and as a result, he initially...
The wires were short-circuited, which naturally also blew a few fuses.
A fuse was located directly on the battery, which is why the servo unit failed. Additionally, the fuse inside the radio (an aftermarket radio) was also defective. Unfortunately, I had checked all the fuses inside the car before I found the defective fuse near the battery, as I had already confirmed that all the relevant fuses inside were fine.
Since I've checked everything, the problem with the LWR (likely referring to a specific system or component) is the cause, and it's not related to incorrect polarity.
Okay, so if I clear the error code using VCDS, the automatic headlight range adjustment starts going up and down, and then the error code reappears. I just drove the Fabia around a bit, and after a while, the warning light in the instrument cluster goes out. After restarting the car, it happens again, and then it disappears after a few minutes.

Apparently not. Reversing polarity is always very bad, or unpredictable, as to what will happen. Anything is possible.
"First, I would disconnect the battery for a few minutes and then re-check the fuses. It's possible that something overheated, there's a contact issue, or a fuse is blown."

And do not upload any images from repair manuals for which you do not have the rights.

Hello,
http://wiki.ross-tech.com/wiki/index.php/02233
Is everything working?
If so, stay calm, and after a few days, read the error memory.

@ dieselschrauber
Okay, it wasn't my intention.
@ RedR32
Okay, as far as that goes, I don't really have any other choice.
