Hello, recently I'm having some problems on the 09 Central Eletrics:
B133E11 - Locating illumination for switch (terminal 58xs) Short circuit to ground
static
How can I fix this problem, what does it mean?
I installed the ambient light on the rear doors and now they are not working caused by this error B133E11.
Please help

Please help hmm......... as the descriptor on the error code suggests - it means that the monitoring function inside what OBD11 calls the "central electrics" module has detected an electrical connection directly between the power supply that illuminates the instrument lights and earth (ground).
In older vehicles this type of fault (also called an "electrical short-circuit") would have blown the circuit fuse. But in a mk7, the electrical current is electronically limited so that no damage is caused.
My guess is that there has been an error in the wiring connections on the new rear door lights - but my suspicion is based entirely on the limited information in your post

I installed the ambient lights on the rear doors, the lights are not OEM but the simple EL wire led stripe. I took the positive 12V from the window illumination switch on white wire of PIN 4 from the windows control switch which has a 4 pin connector and I took the negative from the white wire of PIN 3 from the window motor which has a 10pin connector. |

^^^ Andrea: I can't understand what you have done to wire-up your new non OEM LED strip, but it's clear from your error message that an incorrect connection has been made. To check my hypothesis, remove the wires to the new LED strips, clear the error message, then turn-on the car. Does the error message reappear?
Check the wiring diagram for your model mk7 for the proper connections
