    Reverse Module " fault"

    Guys.. if my reverse camera image is not working , should I not get a "fault" message or blank screen on my display?. This is my only reverse image display. I've been informed I have a highline reverse module. The Reverse Module seems 'ok" from the outside. Is there a way to test it. I took an independent VW Specialist and they indicated(without confidence) it was the module. They didn't specify how they tested it.
    apologies for the image as I don't know how to rotate it

    I don't see your picture, but I am guessing it's a blank image while in reverse.

    That is what happens if the module is unplugged on the Highline setup.

    If you want to confirm for yourself and have a multimeter, I would test power at the unit and see if the can bus connection has the correct resistance at the module.

    I suspect the RVC module has failed at some point, so it has been coded out in 10 PDC and 37 Navigation.

    thanks... so the car / system will automatically code out after some time?
    I'm still scetical about water ingress into the module, as it seems fine externally. I'm hoping its a loose connection somewhere?

    No it won't do it by itself. Someone would have had to have done it.

    Kamold.. if I was to replace the reverse module-with the exact same , would I need someone to 'reprogramme" or turn on the reverse camera ?

    I will have a spare highline module available once I get my hands on an upgraded camera and MIB if you are interested.
