Error: rear view camera system

Featured Replies

Apologies if this is a previously-answered question - I searched the forum last night and came up with nothing.

My mk4 SE L Superb started giving me this error yesterday and refusing to display the camera, instead only showing the radar overview. It’s persistent, rather than intermittent. As far as I can tell there is no physical damage to the camera or the wiring, and everything else on the same fuse seems to be working (radar and virtual pedal definitely work)

I’m at a bit of a loss - software current, but not recently updated.

Any ideas?

I have it booked in at a local dealer for diagnostics under warranty on Wednesday, so I’ll update here either way, but any insights from the community would be helpful.

Cheers

Clarification

Has anyone recently used a pressure washer on the car? Although our Superb isnt due for collection until September, we had issues with the rear camera on our Velar because of water ingress - over zealous pressure washing.

Dealer replaced it under warranty. I guess Skoda would do the same if necessary.

Best wishes.

Makes complete sense, but mine hasn’t had a wash for ages... it could still be something related though. I’ll keep looking and post back here once it’s been diagnosed 🙂

I have the same fault today as well so it isn't going to be the wiring or camera hardware

Seems like more than just coincidental timing. I’m now starting to wonder if I’ve maybe missed an OTA update that’s gone wrong?

This car ticks all my current boxes (wouldn’t mind a bit more power under the right foot at times!) but I’m slightly disappointed that the software issues I’ve read about elsewhere haven’t been sorted…

Yep to be honest I have had enough of it, my wife's Nissan gets no software glitches. I am not sure to book it in or wait a few days to see if it clears.

Still has the issue today

Booked in for a diagnosis check, next available appointment 15th July - what a joke

Update - took fuse out, looked ok, put it back. Run a code check it didn't find any but I pressed clear codes anyway. Rear camera back working!

Oh, interesting! I’ll still take it into the dealer tomorrow but I’ll keep this handy just in case. What code reader did you use mate?

As suspected - software update gone wrong. Needs to be left at the dealership for two days to get sorted, which isn’t ideal (family holiday coming up in less than 48h).

They’ve told me not to touch the fuse box otherwise it’ll invalidate the warranty, which just seems ridiculous 😅

That can't be right, the hand book states what the fuses are for are they saying you can't check!
