Reverse camera not working on AE0273B

[Stian]

I've been trying for many days now, to get the reverse camera working on
the Pumpkin AE0273B. I bought on Ebay - 372216365181

I have tried 2 different cameras, both work when connected to "Video In" and
routed into the AVIN app.

When the camera is connected to the "cam in" socket, the reverse-in switch
triggers a black screen with a yellow exclamation mark.

I have checked the circuit repeatedly by following guides on the forum.

I have turned the reverse cam off and on in factory settings.

I have tried various options in the 'Driving Settings' menu (video while
driving on/off, reverse x-mirror on off)

I have also tried running the cam from a separate power source, same problem
- I tried this In case the reverse light on the car does not have enough
power to run the camera.

The car is a Passat B6 2007 model

Is the stereo not working/broken?

My bad. The cable was plugged in the wrong Port on the back.

Reverse work mx player for any kind of devices or any brand will be fine.

Here we are a year later in this thread.
I have had my AE0273B for two years, but only just got around to installing it.
I have two triangular, low profile mount cameras, and couldn't get either to engage as a rearview camera. I spent a whole day on this, thinking it was my reverse light wiring. I bought another camera to test out of the car, and found that it works using the video input app, but will not engage as reverse cam, no matter if the reverse lead is grounded or not.

Glad that I can just move on, now.
Has anyone tried to update their AE0273B to Android 9.0 and see if this changes the behavior?

Hello,

Have you solved the camera issue?
About updating system, Some customer can do it successfully, but it risk of damaging the radio.pls think twice.
