OPS RNS-510 Installation Problems

[walbjj]

As far as I know, ur pretty much the only mk6 owner that has retrofitted the eBay kit and gotten it to work. Ive seen mk5 owners with it and haven't come across any from the USA forums. Therefore, it must work. Just need to find the solution

Keep us informed Walbjj, hopefully Derek gets it working for you on Monday.

Let me know if you get it working. I asked Derek a year ago if he'd do an OPS on my '07 Passat and he said flat out "no, we don't do 'em". The passat already have front/rear sensors so it may be an even easier job to get it working.

I assume it's just an audio parking system then?
It might be more work to get the optical running as u need new control modules and wiring Is the issue

Does anyone know if the same issues apply to the kits available from carsystems.pl

hey mg, mine is the carsystems kit. straight from poland.
another tidbit of info. the t-cera kits are also the carsystems kits, he said they are the main guys and the others r resellers. carsystems make their own wiring harnesses and they package the modules up and sensors into the kits that u see on ebay, etc.

the thing is, they dont give adequate instructions, and any hack like me will have no chance of installing it. u need expert knowledge as well as the correct tools to get this done. i would be patient, ill report back with where im at.

Try to code unit using 100102 this coding is from a parklife unit installed in a vw, change the 1 in the middle to 2 if its a manual vehicle.\ not saying this will fix it but could be worth a try or compare it.also code the radio unit so it knows it exists

[grtuned]

also try post a diagnostic log of what you got installed?

Car went in this morning, Derek went to work on some things, and took a look at the ops parking kit and the wiring. The verdict is

IT ****ING WORKS!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm so glad that he sorted it out. I'm pissing my pants in joy actually. I haven't been this happy since that paternity test came back negative.
Anyone that was looking at this as a cheaper alternative to a rvc or just as a aid to parking, then Derek has got mine working properly. It throws some errors but he said that might be due to the module not being a vw part and a skoda part but it has no effect on the operation

Walbij,

Good news, congrats that you have it sorted.

Care to provide a bit of a run down of the steps necessary to make the kit work.

I am keen as to purchase the kit, however I am not so sure I can find an installer in Melbourne that will have the skills to get it all working so I need as much info as possible before I part with the green to get the kit...and get holes drilled in the bumpers!

Cheers,
