Coding and Programming Requirements

Coding and infotainment activation are required after installation.

The reversing-camera function must normally be enabled using Volkswagen-compatible VAS, ODIS or VCDS diagnostic equipment. The vehicle must be configured so the camera image appears automatically when reverse gear is selected.

The coding must match the vehicle's infotainment system, transmission, parking equipment and camera configuration.

A diagnostic scan and stored fault-code clearing should be completed after installation. The camera image and guidance-line positioning should also be checked before the vehicle is returned to service.

Special calibration equipment is not normally listed as a standard requirement for this low-line retrofit. Further adjustment or calibration may be necessary if the camera position, image or guidance lines are not correctly aligned.

Installation Information

Professional installation by a Volkswagen technician or experienced automotive infotainment specialist is strongly recommended.

Installation may require removal of interior trim, routing the camera wiring from the rear door to the dashboard, connecting power and communication wiring and modifying or replacing the appropriate camera mounting trim.

The wiring must be routed securely and protected from sharp edges, moving hinges, water entry and cargo-area damage.

After installation and coding, the reversing image, guidance lines, reverse-gear activation, parking sensors and factory infotainment functions should be tested for correct operation.
