Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • Reverse Module " fault"

    Guys.. if my reverse camera image is not working , should I not get a "fault" message or blank screen on my display?. This is my only reverse image display. I've been informed I have a highline reverse module. The Reverse Module seems 'ok" from the outside. Is there a way to test it. I took an independent VW Specialist and they indicated(without confidence) it was the module. They didn't specify how they tested it.
    apologies for the image as I don't know how to rotate it

    I don't see your picture, but I am guessing it's a blank image while in reverse.

    That is what happens if the module is unplugged on the Highline setup.

    If you want to confirm for yourself and have a multimeter, I would test power at the unit and see if the can bus connection has the correct resistance at the module.

        I suspect the RVC module has failed at some point, so it has been coded out in 10 PDC and 37 Navigation.

          thanks... so the car / system will automatically code out after some time?
          I'm still scetical about water ingress into the module, as it seems fine externally. I'm hoping its a loose connection somewhere?

            No it won't do it by itself. Someone would have had to have done it.

              Kamold.. if I was to replace the reverse module-with the exact same , would I need someone to 'reprogramme" or turn on the reverse camera ?
