2017 Volkswagen Passat Front assist camera how to get the 12V power.

[Volksnator1792]

I have a 2017 Volkswagen Passat. working on re-wiring the front assist camera. I have wired everything correctly and followed a few other forms of other b7 and b8 Passat.

@Volksnator1792: My diagram in post #5 in your RT link came from a RoW model Golf mk7. As I said in post#3, whilst pin#5 (and Pin #6) are shown as connected to R242, I was aware that the front camera was (often?) not used - particularly on NAR models.
