Default VaisTech ML+ installed, but.....

My backup camera doesn't engage when the gear is put to reverse. I've searched, to no luck. Can anyone help? Thanks!!

Everything else on the ML+ is fantastic! But I need my backup cam!!

Go to your setting and make sure backup camera is disabled in the VAIS

Please let me know what ML Plus version number you have. You can see it in Settings -> General -> About -> ML Plus ->

Also please advice which emulation did you program the unit in.

Thanks,

Default It works!

Thank you all for the suggestions & help. After tinkering with it for quite some time, and going through the programming sequence several times, I believe we are finally fully operational! Everything looks and works great now and I am very pleased......except for the few chips on the dash around my air vents. That is not pleasant at all. Why did our dashboards have to be so soft? First, my old IS300 dash had melting issues, now we have one that chips away! Maybe the 3IS will have a more durable dash!

Nice to here! Sorry about your dash though. Those vents can be a pain to remove.

From what I remember, after messing with it for a little while..... I went through the programming steps a couple of times and it worked fine. This seems like an eternity ago, but it looks like it was just in 10/2011!!
