Purchased this from ALDI in August 2015 and earlier this year it stopped working. I have been dealing all year with the left eyeball and poor vision so like many other things it had to wait - until now.
Got it working... read on.
The worksite.
Clear out the boot.
Unscrew and move the left boot trim over the other side.
Prepping... off to get more tools.
Ready for surgery.
That red/black cable is transmitter power and all i did was simply wrap those wires around the spliced reversing lamp wires and tape. Yep... that came back to bite, the black had corroded and cut power to the transmitter.
This time we soldered the connections!
Tidy up with cable ties.
We are done on the outside - back to the boot area.
That's the rear camera transmitter.
Move the transmitter out of the way so we can replace the boot trim.
With that in place...
we can tuck the transmitter into this pocket.
But wait... there is another problem!
The USB socket the powers the mirror is also faulty and to confirm that I swapped with the dashcam USB cable and it also doesn't work - weird. Order another one off eBay.
