Hello, just installed an rcd330 in my 2011 tiguan with previously installed rns510 dynaudio with a factory camera.
I put an rcd330 and a new camera. I get black screen in reverse unless I keep it in reverse and hold the power button to restart the radio-then the radio restarts, shows the image from the camera(dynamic lines work as well) for about 2 seconds, the radio then restarts again and goes back to the black screen.
So I know that the camera is connected properly.
What could it be? Coding issues?
Firmware version 5614 currently installed.
Thank you
Hello everyone! Just got my first car and chose the polo as it seemed very easy to replace the stereo with a CarPlay option. Got my no name RCD330 from lemon shark and picked up the car this morning.
My car comes with a RCD310 DAB radio, with three connections on the back (the big basket thing, the antenna and another antenna looking thing. My car also has a VW hands free Bluetooth module up on the dash.
Took the RDC310 out and it’s a mess of wires behind. The cars original big basket connector is plugged into another loom of wires which then went into the 310. There’s also some other cables around the place including one that looked like it went off to the glovebox USB connector.
I was going to plug the 330 into the cars OG connector and remove the additional loom but because the additional loom goes off under the dash proper, I left it and just plugged the 330 in where the 310 was. Boot logo shower, audio worked. Success!
However I left the car for a good 30 mins, got back in and turned the key to turn on just the electrics and the stereo didn’t show the boot logo. It did nothing until I pressed the power knob at which point it came straight on to the radio menu. I think it’s meant to show a boot logo after so much inactivity to show it’s not on constantly draining the battery
Left it 15 mins and tried the ignition again and the display showed a warning that the 12v battery was running low and to turn off the display or start the engine.
Does anyone have any ideas? Totally new to cars and this kinda stuff
I have ordered RCD330 from "Lexucar" shop (187B) with AndroidAuto, Apple CarPlay and MirrorLink capabilities.
However, the chinese send me unit with only Apple CarPlay and MirrorLink, but no AndroidAuto support, which leaves me without possibility to connect the phone for apps....
Question: Is it possible to add AndroidAuto support by firmware upgrade or any other way?
Rcd330 it has YouTube music via apple carplay. When I click on the app it’s opens up then all I can do is click on playlist favourites and it’s empty. Even though on my phone on the YouTube app I stored a favourites playlist. Yet it is blank on the radio is does show my YouTube user name but apart from that it’s blank. If I want to play YouTube I have to go through my phone.
I have been reading the forums for a while and the info on here has been really good in help me select and RCD330 noname
Unfortunately, even though i selected 2 very genuine looking noname 187b with correct HW 531 shown in the photos im now at the end of 2 disputes on ebay..
The first one came from china and was clearly advertised as a noname 187b HW531 SW 5341 Model and shown in photos and i ended up receiving a RCD360 with fake motherboard. They even tried to disguise it by scratching off and removing the stickers. Anyway i have finally just got refunded after 4 weeks of time spent on this. The never offered to send me the real item. They obviously just advertise the noname ones and charge a higher price and screw people over.
The 2nd one was advertised in the same way but came from UK and had real photos but now it seems its a fake ad and ebay informed me they removed the item and to expect i may not see the item and refund possibly coming soon again!
I was careful in selecting accounts and ads but still have suffered a bad experience there.
I wondered if people sell the real noname 187b models on here or can anyone point me to a good seller (preferably UK based) ?
I'am new to this forum and I have a few questions before buying and installing a new RCD. I have a golf 6 2009 automatic with no steering wheel buttons. But the car has a MFD. First one: Is this radio good?
Since I'am reading a lot that there is a certain version (rcd360) which appeartanly is not good. And will this radio also display my front and parking sensors? And can it also display car information?
second question: What do I need to successfully install this radio with no problems?
Hi, I connected everything for non OEM camera with RCD330 like so:
Camera power + and - to rear 12V socket + and -,
camera red trigger cable to rear 12V socket +,
Then on the radio side I wasn't sure where to connect the red cable, so I connected it to cable coming out from radio like this
The camera was programmed in before, and before I connected it and when I popped in reverse it used to say "Rear view camera not available" instantly, now when I have the camera connected it when I pop it in reverse it takes a couple of seconds, and then it comes up with "Rear view camera not available" as well, but now there's at least some time with black screen before the message appears so I know something is happening. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
I recently bought this camera to fit the RCD unit in my 2015 VW Transporter but it came with no instructions.
I have ran the video cable ,fitted the camera and the adapter to the factory harness but wondered if anyone had detailed instructions for other connections and wiring or could simply tell me the connection required?
I have numbered every connection in the kit to make things easier.
