Hello everyone

Broken trunk harness. :rolleyes: I replaced the trunk harness with the factory part.

Everything works now, but if the car is parked outside overnight in MN cold I have problems:

select reverse: camera pops out of the VW logo.
deselect reverse: camera display goes away, camera does not tuck itself away and often the trunk will pop open. This has only happened when the car is parked overnight in the cold. It usually sleeps in a garage.

This car did not come from the factory with a backup camera. I installed the VW upgrade. I have checked the trunk ground post- all contacts seem to be tight.

Any thoughts would be helpful. :thumbs:

Hello,

I wonder if you could have some luck with a 'cold weather' spray lubricant, maybe a light silicon spray.
Something that can displace any moisture and prevent freezing.

Let us know how this works out for you...

Was there a safety recall for harness + connectors and revised camera at NHTSA on this?

Thanks for the info! I will reach out to VW regarding a potential recall.

Camera/Rear latch switch part number: 5K0-827-469-AS
Harness part number: 3C8-971-182-G

This evening I took a bit of sandpaper to the contacts, removed the little white "ground cable organizer." Ground connection is definitely solid now.. We will see.
