Reverse Camera Install - No auto select in reverse
Hi all,
I decided to finally have a look at adding a reversing camera onto my 54 D3 HSE. I purchased an SMB to RCA adapter cable a while back from this site, picked up an NTSC camera from Ebay which was listed as for Disco3.
After some background reading on the forum I decided to go for the RR mod route, so snipped the required wire and swapped over to RR mode, edited the CCF with my IID Tool to enable "reverse camera rear" and tested it via the secret menu.
From the security menu I can navigate to the camera, it's listed in the middle of the three options, has "fitted" below it and I can see the picture from the camera no problems.
However, when I head back to the normal screens and I select reverse, nothing happens in the display!
I do remember reading in one of the posts about maybe having to flash the ECU? Has anyone else had this and if so was it an ECU Flash which fixed it or am I missing something?
The car has already had the Instrument Pack ECU flashed to IPC MY07+ for pre MY07 some time ago.
I am guessing it is the Navigation ECU, which as I have a regular non-BT IID first hardware version, I need to do via a Laptop, check the MMM version and hook up to my CTEK. Well, that's what I took from reading the manual.54 D3 TDV6 AUTO HSE - Oct13 > Present

When doing the ccf edit, do NOT select MY10 camera
After shipping the yellow wire. Do things on the display appear different.
If no , you have the wrong wire

As a test you can unplug the wiring loom to the 2 panel buttons.
Then power up the unit (not before)
Now select reverse.

Hi Pete,
I will double-check the CCF via the IID tool but I only had the option to select the Reverse Camera as None/Rear/Both.
Yes the display has changed to one with more options on the home screen. I can select the Radio stations, set the Date and Time from the touch screen.54 D3 TDV6 AUTO HSE - Oct13 > Present

I couldn't find any other setting in CCF related to reverse camera?
CCF - Audio System - Parking Camera
I have tired setting the CCF to "none" and the Video Input Test page, Rear View Camera has "Not Fitted" - I can test the picture by clicking on it but not picture when I select reverse.
Then with the CCF set to "rear", the Video Input Test page has Rear View Camera as "Fitted" - however when I select revearse gear no display of camera comes up.54 D3 TDV6 AUTO HSE - Oct13 > Present

I'm using a first gen IID Tool to access the car, i've tied both via the dash and also hooked to my Thinkpad.

All I can think of is goto the test vechile inputs page on the
Display.
Find reverse selected. And check it changes when reverse selected.

No worries Pete, thank you for your messages.
I'm going to have a go at flashing the Navigation ECU on the weekend (subject to snow) when i can hook up my CTEK. See if that does anything.54 D3 TDV6 AUTO HSE - Oct13 > Present

I have a YIE500070PVJ and I am connecting to the brown middle video input on the back. This input does come up on the middle screen (Rear View Camera) on the Video Input Test page.
I did swap it over to the tan input and it did move the picture to the correct screen on the Video Input Test page, as expected.54 D3 TDV6 AUTO HSE - Oct13 > Present

Brown is correct.
It doesn’t appear to be seeing the fact it’s in reverse.
Check your reversing lights work.
