** our kits are newer, so please DO NOT TAP INTO fuse box as shown in videos below, as that may damage the module. One of the most common question is our KIT does NOT come with fuse tap or tan/brown connector to fuse panel by glove box, that is by design as fuse tap is *** not NEEDED ***

Convertible Camera: 

All System:

• First make sure the red LED on the module is blinking - it means the module is communicating with CANBUS system correctly (counter-intuitive we know)

• No camera image - switches on reverse fine with parking guideline 

  • Camera needs power: make sure the purple rear cam power is sending +12v on reverse via the red wire along the long camera cable to the camera. On the camera end, red to red via the little power plug, or can cut it off and hardwire it. 

• Parking sensors overlay on screen - on certain system you can turn it off with DIP switch on the module. If you're car is equipped with sensors and is 2013+, sensor date will show up just like factory ones

• Front camera doesn't stay on - that's by default, front camera comes on for about 10 sec when shift into Park. Set it to DVR mode to manually control front camera. See guide for settings. 

• Airbag light come on after install: you powered on the car during installation with the passenger airbag light disconnected. It has to be cleared with a scan tool. To avoid that, connect the airbag indicator light back before you turn on the car to test

AMI Camera Kit:

• Black Screen, no display at all, no factory radio display

  • LVDS output should connect to back of LCD Screen, NOT back of radio (unlike MMI module). 

  • LVDS and Camera input harness most likely reversed at the module: both use the same white connectors and can easily be mixed up. Make sure LVDS connector DOES NOT go into camera input, check label on the module. Swap them if reversed.

MMI and MIB Camera kit:

• Distorted Screen (image either too small or large, multiple camera view, noise lines)

  • Check DIP switch to make sure it matches your screen resolution. Power off unit completely whenever DIP switch changes.

• All test working first, then nothing works after final install

  • Most like DIP switch changed/moved accidentally when putting it back together

  • check trunk/hinge area for stressed or pinched wires, make sure enough slack to accommodate trunk hinge operation

** MIB and MMI kits can fit multiple Audi models with different screen resolution and CANBUS command structure, so it's critical to set DIP switch to match your particular model and screen resolution. DIP switch setting is on the module label. Please power cycle the module for new setting to take effect. **
