Reversing camera retrofit

Featured Replies

Hi,  I wonder if anyone could help me out. After reading other posts here I've installed this reversing camera into my octavia with an Amundsen unit. It's powered by the rear wiper and I've cut off the RCA plug and connected it to the blue block in the multimedia unit,  terminal 6 core and terminal 12 shield. I then coded the ICU with OBDeleven to byte 19, bit 4. 

When I tried it I got a 'park pilot not available' error on the HU and fault code B201A00 'checking software management' on OBD. Reverting to the original coding brought back park pilot but the fault code couldn't be cleared even though I've disconnected the video feed. 

Any help would be really appreciated!

Hi

Can you send me screenshoot of your error and the controller code before make changing and after changing

Hi. Thanks a lot for your reply,  but I've finally worked it out.  I stupidly got the wiring wrong from the rear wiper and assumed brown was positive rather than negative. So coding wasn't the problem after all and it's working fine. By the way it's a great little camera for the price. 

You are welcome 

Considering adding a reversing camera to my Octavia, I've read elsewhere that the SW version has to be greater than 0435 for the parking sensor graphic to be transparent and show the full camera image. Is this true ?

 

System is a MIB1 Bolero, car is 2015. I have the firmware update files but haven't done the update yet. My car is currently SW version 0421.
