Hi,
You need to wait 10 minutes for radio to sleep after you lock your car. It will not consume energy after 10 minutes.
What is your car? Model / year?

Hello,

Thanks for your reply. I will check if waiting 10 minutes solves the energy consumption issue. I can unfortunately not try it anytime soon, but hopefully within a month.

Do you have some reference to waiting 10 minutes? Is there some kind of manual that explains this?

My car is a VW Golf MK5 (2008) with a 1K0 907 530Q canbus gateway (S0202).

Friend,
10 minutes is only a test if it is draining your battery or not. (If the VW logo appears after you unlock car and switch on ignition, it will not drain)
A 2008 Golf Gateway is probably not compatible with Rcd330, it will drain battery.
You should buy a steering wheel adapter to solve issue.

Hi sorry for the late update. I didn't have access to the car for some time.

I tried today to see if waiting 10 minutes solves the battery drain, but unfortunately, the energy consumption is still high.

After I turn off the ignition, the radio screen turns off, but the consumption will be around 0.42A. After like 20 minutes this becomes like 0.3A. See the attached photos, please.

0.3A is enough to drain the battery in a week. My default radio had a consumption of 0.01A with the ignition off.

I bought a steering wheel adapter to try to solve this issue, but it didn't help, unfortunately.

My situation seems similar to this person:

I was thinking of trying the fusemod solution that he tried as well:

Are there any other solutions that I can try before trying the fusemod solution?

The fusemod doesn't seem to be suitable as a permanent solution. Is there anything else I can try?

@VWR, you are the expert on this forum; do you have any other suggestion?

Hello
I would also like to buy the RCD330 and I have this gateway 1K0 907 530 L and I don't have the steering wheel controls. I have vw Golf mk5 (04/2008). Now I mount the delphi RCD510 without battery problems
Can I mount the RCD330 or do I have to change the gateway?
Thank you
