im after getting my CFF function activated so i can run a reverse camera via my denso screen (already have the adaptor cable)

does anyone have an IID tool near bristol that can do this?

cheers

It won't work unless you also put the screen in FFRR mode (by cutting a wire on the back), but this will screw up bluetooth etc.

The alternatives are:

A) Use the secret menu to access the feed manually.

B) Fit a GVIF interface.

i was aware i would have to cut the middle wire to make it full fat mode.

can you tell me more about the hidden menu option?

for the cost of gvif interface i could get a fantastic headunit and put camera into that. but i dont fancy taking current headunit appart to get top screen working.

cheers

It's a shame about the side effects of the FF mode, as many have therefore found it to be unviable. Visiting from DISCO3.CO.UK

ok so go into the rear view camera via video imputs test using the secret button/code.

i havnt fitted a camera yet... but i have the cable. is there a way i can get camera to work via this screen system when in reverse? or do i have to manually hack it each time?

in "vehicle signals" in the hidden diagnostics menu, one of the options is reverse gear... this is currently "off" would turning it "on" get rear cam going?

cant seem to turn in on..think it reading gear selector position

No, unfortunately there's no way of using that method automatically. The reverse gear is just an indicator, rather than a selectable option.  Visiting from DISCO3.CO.UK

Let me understand this correctly - even if I edited the Car Configuration File to enable the "Rear View Camera" option so it would show as "on" in the video sources test menu, the car will not display the feed from a camera connected to the brown input on the rear of the radio unit? Regards etc.,

The video will display via the hidden menu regardless of the CCF setting. If the CCF is changed, it will still not show automatically, unless the screen is in FF mode.  Visiting from DISCO3.CO.UK

It may pay you to add a few things to your profile/signature.

Also for these types of mods the Disco 3 Forum is pretty good. In Spain - 2018 F Pace - Frightened away from the Sports due to crank failures

I believe NavTV is the one you're thinking of: http://www.nav.tv/products/land-rover-rang...nav-inrr05

Another standard GVIF option: http://www.hids4u.co.uk/land-rover-discove...creen.html

Note that the factory TV and DVD systems can be retro-fitted and will work, though not on the move, which is another benefit of a the NavTV/GVIF option.  Visiting from DISCO3.CO.UK
