Wiring diagram

Featured Replies

Hi any1 got a wiring diagram for a 2012 vrs mainly lights (rear)  i need the colour wire for the reversing lights .  Im fiiting a rear camera and need to find the wires for the auto activation for camera ..

Acording to my diagram it is a red wire with a black stripe. The changeover year was 2013 so it may have changed on late build 2012 cars.

You can check by taking out the bulb unit in the boot as though you were changing a bulb and see if that colour wire goes to the connector.

 

Some people have had a problem with black stripes on pictures from the camera due to interference from CAN and other sources. Do a search on this forum for further information if needed.

Thanks for info  i have been told to put a 30 amp relay in place to give a continuous feed rather than the pulse that the canbus gives

If you use a 30A relay, that is oversize for the current taken on the contacts by the camera. 

On all electrical circuits the rule is that any wiring must be fused to protect the cable on its full length (fire protection against shorts.)

 

For the camera supply I suggest you use the cabin fusebox on the driver's end of the dashbord for supply and fusing. There are several spare slots at different maximum currents, switched and continuous.

A good solution is to use a piggy back fuse holder on one of the existing fuses,  using such as this.  It has two fuse positions - one for the original fuse and one for fusing the new circuit.
