Q7 4M Rear View Camera - Retrofit

[jimbo9000]

Hi, thanks for this insight. I'm looking to do the same but haven't found a reasonable guide on the boot trim removal/cable laying along with connection to the relevant box in MMI. Is there a guide you would recommend on this please? Thank you.

Rear camera coding - Is it ok?

Module 19 Gateway

• Select Installation List
• Check 6C Rear View Camera
• Save

Module 09 Central Electrics

• Select Coding
• Go to Byte 35 and check Bit 4
• Exit and Do it!

Module 5F Multimedia

• Select Adaptation
• Search for VPS
• Car_Funktion_List_BAP_Gen2_VPS set the new value activated and press Do it!
• Car_Funktion_List_BAP_Gen2_VPS_msg_bus set the new value Terminal 15 and press Do it!

Whatever that bit does may somewhere else in different control module versions, so you should make sure it looks like the right thing to be setting rather than doing it blindly:

Go to Byte 35 and check Bit 4

I can't comment on the other parts.

Hi Andy, where did you tap into for CAN wires? I believe this camera uses extended CAN system for communication?

[ta264]

The easiest place I found is at the connector for the adblue control module behind the right rear luggage compartment side trim. Check out the service manual for details and wiring diagram.

If you have some of the more advanced driver assistance modules the extended canbus wire might be present behind the left side trim by the fusebox, but mine didn't.

Hi mate, yeah I did see that in Erwin last night, J880 Control unit for reducing agent metering system seems like has extended CAN also, much easier than tapping into GW under seat thanks for confirming.

Hello
I just bought camera and I'm ready to install it. I've already done it in A6 C7 and I think there is different coding there. Kufatec doesn't seem to include coding instructions for free anymore. I have a diagram from Erwin and I see a difference in the power supply, in A6 there is terminal 15 and in Q7 there is terminal 30, is it ok?
Thanks

Hi, just code as per the suggestion earlier, that is correct. And it's fuse 13 ST3 fusebox, you will find it as you are looking at Erwin diagrams. Difference between C7 and 4M is CAN, you need to tap into extended which as also mentioned earlier easiest to find in agent metering control unit on the other side of the boot from the fuses.

What coding i need for 5f
On A6 C7 i have done
ENG12229-ENG117712-Car_Function_List_BAP_Gen2-VPS_0x0B = activated
ENG122229-ENG117713-Car_Function_List_BAP_Gen2-VPS_0x0B_msg_bus = Terminal 15

that's the one, and coding for 5F is the same for all MIB2 and MIB2p
