How to install the rearview camera of the Renault Clio

Model: Renault Clio Clio 5, Clio V - Years 2019-2026
Part: Accessory kit

To install the rear camera of the Renault Clio, we need to connect the diagnostic socket of the car in order to add the rear camera as an optional feature to the ECU; once the rear camera option has been added, we can start making connections with wires (first testing with the camera not mounted on the bumper, so we don't have to disassemble the car to find wire problems); once we have checked the correct operation with temporary wires, we can secure the rear camera to the rear bumper, connect the camera wire to the reverse light so it turns on when reverse gear is engaged, route the wires through the interior plastics (from above the trunk to the upper internal pillar, then down to the car radio); once everything is connected, we do another test, going to the infotainment system settings, selecting "parking assistants", choosing "rear camera" and checking if it works; then we go back to the main infotainment screen, turn off the car engine, turn on the ignition without starting the engine, engage reverse gear and check if the rear camera turns on. Now that everything is working, we can reassemble the plastics and the bumper previously removed to route the wires.
