How to disable rain sensor in Audi A3?

I am having trouble with my windshield wipers constantly turning on in my Audi A3, even when it's not raining. How can I disable the rain sensor to prevent this from happening?

To disable the rain sensor in an Audi A3, go into the menu settings on your MMI display and select 'Individual' under the 'Automatic wiper' option. From there, you can turn off the rain sensor functionality. It is recommended to keep the rain sensor on during rainy conditions for optimal visibility, but this option is available for those who prefer manual control.

There is a fuse for the rain sensor in the Audi A3 that you can remove to disable it. Check your owner's manual for the specific location of the fuse. Keep in mind that this will also disable any automatic functions for the windshield wipers, such as rain-sensing wipers or automatic headlight function.

If you would like to permanently disable the rain sensor in your Audi A3, you can have it reprogrammed by a dealership or auto shop. This will require reprogramming the Central Electronics Module (CEM) through specialized equipment. It may be a bit costly, but it will ensure that the rain sensor is fully disabled.
