Part 3

Parking assistance, camera (Continued)

Applies to all models

Illustration A




- Continue to route cable harness A from the camera in the boot lid under the insulation mat at the existing cable duct and to the door opening in the left-hand rear door.

Illustration B




- Pull out the B post panel at the lower edge until the two clips release.
- Continue to route the cable harness in front of the B-pillar panel and to the front of the car to the joint between the front and rear floor mat.

Applies to left-hand drive cars

Illustrations A and B





Note! Check that the correct connector is positioned under the seat respectively tunnel console.

Routing cable harness B
- Take cable harness B from the kit and route it into the mat joint under the left-hand seat towards the tunnel console and in front of the mat. Leave some cable, approximately 350 mm (13 3/4 ") in length, outside the mat joint, so that it can later be connected to the control module that is to be positioned there.
- Route it through the tunnel console, in front of the air ducts and out on the other side. If necessary, use a piece of wire to route the cables through.






Applies to right-hand drive cars





Note! Check that the correct connector is positioned under the seat respectively tunnel console.

Routing cable harness B
- Route the cable harness into the mat joint under the driver's seat towards the tunnel console, in front of the mat and out onto the floor. Leave some cable, approximately 350 mm (13 3/4 ") in length, outside the mat joint, so that it can later be connected to the control module that is to be positioned there.

Applies to all cars that do not have a pre-mounted display.





Routing cable harness C
- Take cable harness C from the kit. The shorter ground lead has a lot of excess that can be hidden under the mat by the left-hand seat.


Illustration A




- Tilt the left-hand seat back.
- Place the two large connectors for the cable harness where the two 32-pin connectors were previously disconnected from each other.
- Route the thinner ground leads (1) into the mat joint in the same direction as cable harness B, along the member for the front seat mounting where the control module will be installed later on.
- Pull up the shorter ground lead (2) from the mat joint so that approximately 350 mm 13 3/4 " protrudes from the mat joint.
- Continue to route the longer of the ground leads the same way as cable harness A backwards towards the rear crossmember.

Note! Ensure that the cables do not come into contact with moving parts in the tunnel console and that they are not at risk of being cut.

Illustration B





Only applies to left-hand drive vehicles.
- Route through the thicker cable (3) to the display through the tunnel console in front of the air ducts and out the other side. Use a wire to route the cables through, if necessary.






Routing the ground cable in cable harness C, continued
- route the ground lead the same way as cable harness A towards the rear crossmember.
- Press the B pillar panel into place again.

Note! Ensure that the ground cable is routed so that it is not at risk of being trapped or cut by sharp edges or similar.





- Clamp the ground cable using cable ties at the rear edge of the cable duct.
- Press two cable ties with edge clips in the bracket legs for the electric parking brake, or media player, and clamp the cable to these.





- Clean the marked surfaces on the of the rear crossmember and floor using isopropanol and wipe dry.





- Secure the cable using wide pieces of silver or woven tape along the rear crossmember and to the floor.

Note! The ground lead must only be taped at the rear crossmember, it must not be secured by the thick cable harness.





- Connect the ground lead's ring cable terminal to the ground terminal closest to the spare wheel well.
- Tighten the ground screw. Tighten to 10 Nm (7.5 lbf.ft.).





- Cut off the cable terminal on the short ground lead in cable harness C. A new cable terminal is in the kit.


Illustration A




Splicing the ground lead in cable harness C





- Splice the black ground lead in cable harness C and the cable splice from the kit.

Illustration B




- Strip the the cable end in accordance with the above table. Use stripping pliers, P/N 9512620.

Pressing the sleeve

Illustration A




- Insert the crimping sleeve in the press tool P/N 9512785. Select the socket as per colour coding. Clamp the pliers together slightly, but only so that the crimping sleeve remains in the pliers.
- Insert the cable in the crimping sleeve until it reaches the stop.

Note! Make sure that the cable insulation does not come into the press area of the sleeve or that the stripped part or the cable extends outside of the sleeve.

Illustrations B and C




- Press the legs of the pliers completely together to ensure a proper splice. The pliers will then release automatically.
- With your hand, check that the crimping sleeve is securely in place.






Heating the crimping sleeve

Illustrations A and B




- Place a suitable shield behind the cables to be crimped to prevent thermal stress to the surrounding area.
- Warm the sleeve with a hot air gun, P/N 9512777, and suitable nozzle. It is extremely important that the crimping sleeve be securely crimped around the cable. You should be able to see that a little bit of glue has been forced out around the cable. (Illustration B).






Applies to all models




- Take the pre-routed power lead with the green connector from under the mat at the left-hand seat's left front mounting.

Applies to all cars that do not have a pre-mounted display.




- Pry up the catch on the green connector.





- Take special tool, part no. 9512637 and carefully press into the hole above the cable terminal in position 1 to release the catch.
- Pull out the existing black cable.





- Carefully push the new cable terminal on the newly spliced ground lead into Pos 1 in the connector.
- Press the connector's catch securely into place.





- Insulate and tape the excess cable terminal at the connector's cable harness.





- Place the cables in the cut-out in the floor mat.





- take control module, bracket and two screws from the kit.
- Tighten the control module to the bracket.





- Press the clip with cable tie into the bracket's lower hole.





- Take the control module with bracket and connect all pre-routed cables to it.





- Collect the cables and clamp them using the cable tie in the bracket.

Note! Ensure that the cables are correctly positioned and bent at the connectors.

- If necessary, insert any excess inside the floor mat.





- Install the control module with bracket using screws from the kit.
