Reversing camera retrofit - connecting up
ksts replied to NikTheGeek's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
Few days ago the signal lost. When i put reverse gear only black screen appears. I've checked all the connection but everything looks fine. I've pulled off the power cable and plug it again....the signal appeared again. When the ignition is off and on again the signal is gone again. I don't know what is going on. -

It's only the blue one that you have to unclip and clips the two wires to the original blue. No need to cut them. Of course i will upload photos when i find time to take the unit out and take some photos. I think that it is universal. I'm not sure. -

I don't have rear wiper so i had to use the connector that the camera has. Otherwise i was ready to follow your way. -

Your platform is the same with nine. So i believe that you can take the risk. But, i suggest that you must have the vcds ready to make the coding check. -
Facelift problems with rear view camera installation
ksts replied to pepino79's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
I bought this rvc https://m.aliexpress.com/item/4000164914793.html?spm=a2g0n.orderlist-amp.item.4000164914793&aff_trace_key=0d40a04d62154208a79082a7e6cbf34c-1575485999488-09134-2u6jmaU&aff_platform=msite&m_page_id=1598amp-pHr5Gzo3xhy7BBv9T8p_5Q1576488345795 and yesterday i was tested if works and cooperates with canbus. The connection was very easy. The seller had already done all the job. You only have to remove the cable from the blue rvc connector and put it into the car's same blue connector. The other connector is just an adapter that you have to connect. And then you must give power to rvc by connecting the fuse to the fuse box. I used the original cameras position. The coding was already done by itself!!! One day i must pass the cable through the seats and install the camera. Now i have the cable wrapped in the passengers box. When i finish the job i will upload photos. -

Pull the trigger!!!! Works perfect!!! I received the camera before a week and tried this morning to check if works. I was surprised with the coding. When i was ready to do the coding with vcds, i saw that the coding was already done. I didn't do anything at all. Now i have to install the camera and pass the cable for the connection. I must mention that my Octavia is MY2018 facelift. -
facelift vRS front bumper retrofit
ksts replied to ksts's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
You are talking about prefacelift vRS. I'm talking about facelift model. The prefacelift fog lights doesn't fit on the facelift bumper. So I must find a way to turn on the led fog lights. -
I want to retrofit front bumper from vRS model and i don't know how to connect the led fog lights. I can't find anywhere the wiring diagram. Mine fog lights are using H8 bulbs. Does anyone tried to retrofit front bumper from vRS model to non vRS model?

Reprogramming VRS tail lights with OBD11
ksts replied to Veki007's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
My Octavia is the sedan version. So the part numbers is not the same with Combi. Sedan: 191 972 716 1S0 972 706 Terminals: N103 361 05 (this is 1.5mm and wasn't fits ok in the socket) N103 189 05 (this is 2.8mm and i think that will fits exactly) A018 545 86 26 Combi: 3C0 972 733 1S0 972 706 Terminals: N103 361 05 A018 545 86 26 The attached image shows how must the adapter will be. This video will help you. https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=285&v=tajW9HEL1Vo You can make the adapter as long as you want. Yesterday I've check the coding with VCDS. The coding is the same with the RS led lights. -
Facelift problems with rear view camera installation

I agree with you. Used one is good solution. I don't speak Polish so I can't buy from this site. -
Reprogramming VRS tail lights with OBD11
ksts replied to Veki007's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
Yes, working perfect also. The only normal bulbs, as I can remember, are the reverse bulb and the turn bulb. I ordered the connectors from Audi dealer because was cheaper than Skoda dealer. It costs me about 25€, but from eBay is more cheaper. -

I have Octavia iii facelift sedan. I've already installed those tail lights and working perfectly without any coding. I only bought the connectors and create an adapter. -

Great!!! I also want to install rvc on my facelift Octavia and I don't know what I'll face. A friend of mine, tried to install rvc but failed. I'll order the camera and I'll do my try.
