Rear View Camera

[1 6 D]

There is no photo in ETKA or in internet, it's only on list in ETKA. I have RCD510 without RVC connection, so I will not have made by myself photo.

Hi Guys

I was busy this weekend trying to fit the RVC. All installed into the bumper just need to wire it all up.
The only thing i'm hazy about is splicing the reverse signal into the back right tail light. I have the Car Systems kit.
Does anyone know which pin/cable the reverse light is?

Many thanks in advance

Hi Everyone,

Really interested in getting a Rear View Camera fitted in my Scirocco GT that I purchased on the 1st of March this year. I've got the RNS 510 in it but wouldn't feel confident in doing this install myself.

Does anyone know anyone on the internet / professional companies that would do this install. Obviously it requires cutting part of the body work away and I'd want to make sure it was done properly so it looked right, worked correctly and didn't damage the paintwork / rust in the future!

If anyone has any suggestions for companies that would help (preferably around the Leeds or North Yorkshire area, that'd be great!!

Many thanks,
Lewis

Holy ****! haha. Wasn't expecting £700 - £800 for the install! I thought it'd be about £300 - £350 ish.

Ok, how hard is the install to do? I'm quite techie, but I've never done anything with Cars before!!! Is this a recipe for disaster?

Alternatively, does anyone who lives nearer want so earn a few squid!!

Hi Guys,
Im fairly new to the forum. Im interested in having this done and was wondering if anyone is offering a service to install this ? I would be looking to have it done in either West Yorkshire / Hertfordshire

I have a 2010 (60) Scirocco GT with RNS 510 Head Unit.

I could Purchase the parts from either:
RVC (Prague) or
Kufatec

Thanks

Hi, i am from argentina.

I'm from Argentina

is the first time I write, I have the question about the wires as shown in the photo, I do not know which wire corresponds to 12V or reversing
anyone has any idea?



Also I have no idea of where to place fill 5A fuse in the fuse box

thanks a lot!!

[GiannisA]

It is easy.
Between them, the one with the terminal connector must be connected to a permanent +12V (5A fuse) and the the other one to the reverse signal.


As shown in the fuse box below, row 4 has permanent +12V feeding.
So any free place at row 4 at your fuse box is ok to add your new 5A fuse.
Personally I used number 26.



If you don't know how to add a new fuse in the box, follow this guide http://www.my-gti.com/601/addition-of-e ... t-fuse-box

[andybora]

Thanks a lot Giannisa.

Sorry, i have another question, in the picture i show two connectors, i need to know which wire is 12v permanent?

Thanks again!!!

[GiannisA]

I believe that we have the same loom. Is it from Kufatec ?
Check the wires. They are also marked as "ground" - "steady plus" for the permanent +12V - "plus" for the reverse.

Anyway, as i can see in your picture from the left side to the right :
1. The first wire with the red round connector is for the ground connection.
2. The second with the connector is for the permanent +12V, and
3. The last one without connector on its end is for the reverse signal.

Hi Giannisa

Thank you very much.

with this I shall begin to work.
I just have to know some parking sensor connections and will be 100%

thanks again.

If you need a new power supply there is an easier way. In most fuse boxes there are at least a couple of spare unused fuse sockets that are already powered up as permanently live and as ignition switched live. If you don't have a circuit tester then make your own with a 12 volt bulb, bulb holder, 2 pieces of wire and a couple of mini crocodile clips.
Use your circuit tester to determine which sockets have a live supply. Clip one end to a suitable earthing point and the other to a small screwdriver and probe the empty sockets (its usually the top half of the socket that will have the powered terminal).
When you've found a powered socket buy a piggy back fuse connector ....

Insert the piggy back connector in to the socket and insert a fuse of the required rating in to the piggy back connector. Crimp on your device to the +ve lead on to the new supply and done. The piggy back connectors are available for full and mini size fuses.

hi, ZephyR

thank you for your help.

[Pablosammy]

What are people usually using for the reversing signal? Is it simply a case of splicing onto the reverse bulb cable? If so, is it easy to ID?

Hey Guys,

Last week I bought a Scirocco R with RNS 510 and parking sensors, but I'm missing the camera that I had on my 1.4 TSI...
Now I found something on Aliexpress that seems pretty nice.

What do you guys think? will this work?

Thanks,

Well it certainly looks like it !

Looks to be the same as the kit i used when i installed the RVC in to my own rocco .

I just found your guide like 1 hour ago
You make it seem so easy!
Was it hard to remove the trims in the boot and in the rear?

[uklee]

Not technically difficult - just fiddly first time around .
It'd much easier with a guide to follow :-)

Please enlighten the rest of us - how-to or pics pretty please!

My friend Bianco, it is easy.
At first you have to connect 3 cables of the Kufatec loom to your car :

1. The cable marked with “steady plus” (or RED colored) must be pulled to the fuse box & connected at a free +12V position with a separate fuse (5A).

2. The cable marked with “ground” (or BLACK colored) must be connected to a suitable ground point.
3. The last cable marked with “pin 28” (or YELLOW colored) must be connected to BCM connector , outlet C (is the brown connector) to pin 28 (Blue/black wiring color). From this one, loom gets the reverse signal. (In order to be sure that you have found the correct point, you can check that in this cable you must have +12V only when you select reverse).


About the problem of the wiring .You have to change the order of the 26pin female connector’s wiring, as is in the diagram.
Disassemble the connector
carefully remove the pins from the positions that are already installed
& re-install them to the correct positions :
• Pin 12 --> Blue
• Pin 13 --> Green
• Pin 24 --> Black (Not need to remove this one, as it must be already in the correct position)
• Pin 25 --> Brown
• Pin 26 --> Orange
Numbers are written on the housing ends like : (Don't be confused by this image. It's from the male connector on the back of the RNS, just to see how the numbers are written)

About VCDS coding, you must set :
• Address 10 – Coding - Byte 00 – Bit 5 : select “Rear view camera installed”
• Address 56 – Coding - Byte 03 – Bit 6 : select “Back-up camera low (without control module) installed”
& finally don't forget to "reset" your RNS.


That's all. Hope my post help you to fix your camera.
If you have any further question , just ask me

Hello to all. Have anyone kept the pics of this guide? or something else to help me do the retrofit? thnx in advance
