Reverse Camera Coding?

Hi, thanks again for your help, I got in touch with a local VW specialist (not a dealer) who said that because my vehicle is 2017 VCDS will not work on it. Apparently later vehicles must use vag's own software ?
Thanks again
Martin
VCDS works perfectly well on my 2017. I'd go elsewhere.
 
Garage are talking rubbish. What he probably means is he has a dodgy VCDS lead from ebay....
 
Thanks again, I will just have to keep looking out for a better lead than the dodgy one I got from eBay.

@MARTINS Have a look on the map for someone close to you with a yellow pin. These are all VCDS users on the forum. They may be able to code this for you for a couple of beer tokens :thumbsup:
 
Latest version of VCDS works fine on our MY18.

Maybe they arnt using a Genuine lead and software.

Bashed cloans are a waist of time.
 
I have a 2016 4motion dsg, the front and rear sensors work fine , but the camera doesn't come on. Is this a common fault? Any ideas??
 
Did it work before?

What do you get on the screen?

Got any pics? Or a vid clip?

Have you tried a radio reset? (Press and hold left rotory knob until boot screen....20se or so)

Assuming it did work before I'd go for a hard reset.....

Disconect the main battery for 30mins..

Or do cap discharge..

Hi all
I’m trying to get someone mobile and local to me to sync my (after market) 3rd break light rear view camera to my head unit.
My local Vw dealerships hasn’t go a clue and the recommendation they gave me can’t be bothered
Any recommendations as I’m losing the will to live.
 
Depends what area you are in and where you travel, check the members map to see if you have any VCDS users in your area

@Absolut5 deal with everything ice/electrical plus @Eddcameron and @MAT@VWT5UPGRADES are retrofit guys so anyone of them should be able to sort you out
 
Many thanks for that Paul, I’m in the Stratford upon Avon area and Eddcameron is the one who can’t be bothered


Hi Mike,
I did apologise regarding the lack of contact. I do hope your camera is working great for you.
Little bit harsh your comment. Any chance you could post a reply? I did offer to do the job free of charge.
Cheers

Hi Ed
My apologies I should of put a post on here explaining that indeed we did have communication problems at the beginning.
Also you did come out to where I was working and did an excellent job with the camera and yes you very kindly did the job free of charge to which I was very grateful.
Mainly just overjoyed the camera worked.
I would have no Hesitation in recommending you to anyone, I already have to several people.
Once again many thanks for an excellent job
Kind regards
Mike
