Title: RNS510 Remove / Canbus issue?
Post by: Neil on November 29, 2012, 10:31:42 am

Hi,

I`m sure there`s an easy straight forward answer, I`ve searched but just haven`t found exactly what I`m looking for.

Fitted a RNS510 and then had a new Canbus installed including the relevent firmware installed  to prevent battery drain.

Question is, if I remove the RNS510 and replace with the original radio will that cause any issues? Or do I have to refit  the old Canbus back in?


Thanks  :smiley:

the canbus upgrade isnt only for the head units. Its for other things as well such as xenon upgrade usability. so it should be ok.

Does that mean if I have xenon my canbus will be a later revision?
