Just an update & looking for further guidance. Thanks to karnold I got in touch with Craig who knows a hell of a lot mroe about VW coding related matters than I. Craig very kindly took time out of his day & hooked up his laptop (VCDS software) & got the following error "Error 31: Code out of Range" when attempting to get the RVC working. It would allow him to go all the way through but as soon as you try & update this error pops up. He checked all connections at the back of the RNS510 & would they were all in securely.

I have a suspicion that VW Ringwood have somehow "locked" it (on purpose or otherwise). They have refused to help & I am now stuck with an RVC that isn't working. Has anyone else seen this error & if so how did you overcome it?

Thanks Craig for your time yesterday. I very much appreciate it.

Re: RNS510 locked

From memory on another component you need to add another byte to the coding and then force apply it...will try and get some more details for you...

Which module gave the coding out of range error? Is it address #37 Navigation? (ie RNS510)
If so please post the coding that is currently on the module.

I've just shot a note off to Craig to confirm. He told me yesterday that it seemed as simple as ticking the box that was unticked relating to RVC but wouldn't allow to update. I'll come back to you ASAP. It is an RNS510. Cheers.

Ok so somehow the coding has been borked on the RNS510. It has an invalid bit set somewhere.
Once you have the coding I can check it against mine and see what is set.

Then hopefully the resolution will be a case of setting the coding to blank (all zeros) and then setting it back up to the correct coding values.

If this still fails then you can load a factory firmware image that will reset the coding to blank in the course of the upgrade.

RNS510 locked

This is new to me. Possibly it could have been locked not to accept any changes. This is possible only if security access is denied.The only way this can be changed is by the dealer they need to contact tech support and get security code to access the nav unit. This has happened to me while working on an up!! The navigon could not be coded unless security access was granted I'm aware these are different units but same rule applies. What gets me is how this was done by the dealer in question will need more info,they have no right to tell you not to fit RVC as it will void wty
What's the case if you were retro fitting a genuine reverse camera?

Apparently it was teh navigation module which I am told for teh RNS510 is also the radio.
