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,

  • T5 Can and power wires

    Hi

    I need to know where is the best place to locate the earth, 12v, c-Bus high and c-bus low wires? This is needed to install my media module for the RVC.

    Thanks in advance

        Where you locating the control module? Front or rear? Front just take it from the back of the radio head unit area...you wont find many CAN wires at the rear of a T5.....VDUB...

            Kordo you may need to get a multi meter it will give you readings that might help but I as I said on an earlier post have you checked to see if there is a wiring diagram on the top of the unit itself that is the old one you have removed ? Click image for larger version

              CAN wires are a pair of twisted wires that are orange with a coloured tracer...look for orange/brown and orange/ purple....main powers and earths are on the main plug.....
