B010B covers actuator B. A common way to reach a reversing camera is a branch off the rear-window washer line with an electric switching valve. Asmo's application US20120266926A1 (2011) describes a solenoid spool valve: unpowered it feeds the rear-screen nozzle, energised it diverts fluid to the camera nozzle. The coil is powered once reverse is engaged, and the washer switch then sprays the camera, for about two seconds in one example. Land Rover's bulletin JLRTB02100NAS1 for the 2022 Range Rover shows the plumbing side: a loose rear washer connector stopped both rear-window and camera wash, and hoses swapped at that connector made the rear-window switch wash the camera instead. Whether B is a rear camera is not published; no maker documents B010B.

Likely causes

Coil of the rear-window/camera switching valve open or shorted
Broken wire in the tailgate or boot-lid harness passage to the valve
Reverse-gear signal that enables the camera wash not reaching the module

Symptoms

  • In reverse the washer switch no longer sprays the reversing camera
  • Rear window may be washed instead of the camera, or neither
