Reversing camera problem
« on: 21 September 2015, 19:13 »
Occasionally my reversing camera fails to display a picture, the badge flips up but not picture appears on the screen. Anyone experienced that and any ideas how to fix it?

Possbile broken wires in boot (at hinge). Wouldn't hurt though to scan RCD/RNS for fault codes, maybe the issue is there.

It's very intermittent, back on now, but will try a VCDS scan.

I had an issue like that when I first installed the reversing camera but updating the firmware on the RNS510 seemed to cure it as it hasn't happened since..
