Is an upgraded/ more robust rotate/ push control available anywhere please ?
The dreaded Camper Control Unit button has failed again on my 2011 model. I am fitting a brand new fascia unit and button purchased from the website's shop.
Looking at the VW button, it is remarkably fragile. It is literally designed to fail.
Plastic knobs on splined shafts have been used without issue on stereos/ radios for decades. I have owned numerous devices with these splined knobs without a single issue - other than with my Cali.
In the California the knob only grips on three of the spindle's (18 or so) splines. If one of these three contact points fails - as they tend to, the mechanism will fail.
