UK RHD Car for info -

Just went out to fit a Dashcam to my A5 2016 Cabriolet. I had a 2015 Cab that I fitted my camera into a few years ago so having sold that I uninstalled the camera and thought should be a doddle to fit.

Been a while since i last did it so got out the manual , flipped open the (as you sit in the drivers seat) right hand panel (Off-side) and see the fuse banks. Look nothing like the manual - they look like the manuals left hand side! So I flip open the left hand side (near side) - it looks like the manuals description of RHS! All the fuses in that panel look like they are live 24x7 whereas the O/Side fuses have a bank that are live with ignition on - at this point though I am not sure what fuses are what.

Anyone got a proper fuse box diagram that shows the UK A5 Cabrio fuses and names that matches what I describing here?

I can post pictures later but I am a bit fed up with faffing about testing stuff so will post them tomorrow.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can put me out of my misery.

And yes I did search here but couldnt find this specific thing...

What’s a B9?

I eventually worked out the fuses and found the ones that are only on with the ignition on … before I worked it out though I pulled a (random) fuse to put the piggy back one in. No power to my camera (subsequent testing has proved the camera is fubar) … anyway stuck fuse back in and fired the car up … now I get a Parking brake malfunction error but it parking brake works fine . Assume I need to just get the error code cleared ? Can’t see how it would be borked by pulling a fuse then putting it back in….
