vagcom coding for audio / telephone... help please!

[p3eps]

I had to nip out and fix an old lady's computer, so I've just spent the last 30 mins in the car with my laptop.
I've got the Dynaudio logo coming up - no probs, thanks.
The reverse cam however... ? ? ? ?
I have no idea whats going on, as it was working yesterday with the RNS, then today I get nothing.  I tried it with the RCD and it worked.

I cleared my fault codes from the 37 - Navigation bit, then rebooted the RNS.

It comes straight back with 1 fault...

I have never been able to get the reverse camera to work correctly on RNS-510's with 1200 firmware, I would personally upgrade it to 2680 (2720 if your feeling brave).

If I upgrade the firmware then I'll end up with the dreaded 'Regensberg Syndrom' as its an A-Version I have.
I was in 2 minds to try removing the Fiscon kit for a minute and see if it works again, as that was the only thing different that I can rememeber when I had it working yesterday.

What about an earlier version than 1200?  Would I still get reverse cam / on screen climate control then?

I believe any thing below 2660 will not do the climate or the camera?

'Regensberg Syndrome' is only bi problem if you park somewhere without GPS receipt, when I upgraded my version A unit to 2660 in my old Mk5 I had the problem twice, both times when I left the car in an underground car park.

When I was at home and the car left on the drive it was never a issue.

I'll give it a go tonight and see if it cures my reverse cam problem.  If the Regensberg Syndrom annoys me, then I'll just have to order a 'C' unit instead.  A pain in the ass, but I should get a 'C' for about 600 and sell my 'A' for 450-500.
The chaps on vwnavi are trying to cure Regensberg - so maybe there will be a solution one day!

I've got a B version with 2720 and don't get the Regensburg Syn??? Only time I saw it was when I first put the new software on.

I took the RNS out of the car and 'borrowed' a 12V power supply from work so I didn't have to sit in it for 50 minutes whilst it updated!
I put on a modded version of 2720 from vwnavi and left it for 50 mins.  I put the RNS back in the car, and when it booted up it was in Germany.  I put the car in reverse - exactly the same... no RVC.

I went through all the coding again - it all looked right, but still no RVC.  I rebooted the RNS.  It starts in Germany for about 5 seconds, then jumps to where I am.  I guess this is the Regensberg... as on 1200 it just started where I am.

Anyway... back to the Vagcom, and I thought I'd try disabling anything to do with the RVC and then retry it.  I disabled module '6C-Backup Cam' which had been giving me errors since day one. 
Rebooted the RNS, and selected Reverse... Problem solved!!
I don't know where this 6C came from - but removing it in CAN Gateway has done the trick.

Thanks for the help guys...

Cheers for sharing all this info with us p3eps.

Can I ask who you got your Hex+Can lead from? I've been thinking I might just invest in one.

[mortygt140]

^6C is for the passat camera where the module is seperate of the camera.  so 6C should n't have been selected?  possibly selected by the dealer on pdi???

Glad you got it sorted though p3eps
