After the concern has been duplicated, and isolated to the Fakra connector at the rearview camera system control module J772 (address word 006C). A replacement of the green 90° Fakra connector must be made: Aerial plug adapter 000098710A will need to be installed (Figure 1A, Image E). A female coax terminal will need to be installed on the vehicle harness (Figure 1B, Image D). Figure 1. Image A: original reverse camera image wiring configuration. Image B: modified reverse camera wiring configuration. Modified wiring configuration replaces original green Fakra connector (C) by installing aerial plug adapter 000098710A (E). Original harness is modified with the installation of a new female Fakra connector (D). 3. Gain access to the rearview camera system control module J772 (address word 006C) in the right rear trunk by removing the luggage compartment side trim. Consult the repair manual for instructions. 4. Gain access to the coaxial wire: Remove the fleece tape along the body harness (Figure 2, Image A). Be sure to utilize lacing tape cutters, or similar tooling when removing the fleece tape to help ensure that there is no damage to the wiring harness. The harness body retainer clip (Figure 2, Image B) should remain in place to ensure proper harness length during the repair. Page 2 of 8 © 2016 Audi of America, Inc. All rights reserved.

With the wiring exposed, locate the coaxial wire that is attached to the green Fakra connector. Pull down on the coaxial wire attached to the green Fakra connector (Figure 3, Image A), this will apply tension to the upper section of the coaxial wire (Figure 3, Image B), making it easier to identify. Mark this wire for later use, and pull the wire back into place. Page 3 of 8 © 2016 Audi of America, Inc. All rights reserved.

Secure the aerial plug adapter to the original body harness with a small piece of wrapping tape (Figure 4, Image B). Mark a cut line reference onto the coaxial wire identified in Step 4. The cut line reference can be marked utilizing tape or permanent marker. The cut line reference should match up with aerial plug adapter’s lower connecting point (red dashed line - Figure 4, Image C). Confirm that all mounting clips of the body harness are properly secured to the vehicle when marking the cut line to ensure proper harness length. Figure 4. Attach the 90 degree end of the aerial plug adapter 000098710A onto the reversing camera control unit J772, replacing the original green Fakra connector, route the aerial plug adapter along the existing body harness, as shown by the dashed yellow line (Image A).
