Put It On The Floor
finally someone who goes into details when installing a rearview camera. great job.10 stars
Glad to help!
If you don’t want to take the back seat off, you can fish a wire down there just lift the seats up then tape the wire coming from the back seat vent to your wiring harness from the camera
Definetely another way to to do it with less disassembly required
@@TheSundaeDrive Best wire route in this vehicle is down the driver's kick panel to the floorboard, where the wire can be placed beside the parking brake cable. Slice the grommet from edge to the center, insert wire and reinstall the grommet in the floorboard. It's waterproof and without the unnecessary seat removal or new holes drilled. Continue attaching the wire to the underbody harness along the way to the camera.
Good tip! Thank you!
Been using self-vulcanizing tape for years. But this is the 1st time I have ever seen posi taps. I had most all connectors like that but these look pretty solid. I will order instantly. I like your vent idea also. Like the idea of not drilling any more holes in the truck that I have to. I drilled 4 yesterday and I'm freaked out over it.
Lol yeah, try to not add more holes than I need to. Posi taps are awesome. They make jobs a lot easier
INSTALLATION NOTE:
Remove the drivers side trim piece from the floor, lift the carpet up, and right to the left front of the drivers seat is a gromet that has some wires ran through it. That's the perfect place to bring your wire into the cab of your truck. Just make a small cut in the gromet, and push the video feed wire through the cut. When you're finished, cover the cut, and the wire with some RTV sealer, and put a small piece of plastic-like from an old grocery bag over the RTV and it won't stick to your carpet padding. I hope this helps.
@Gimme Head I did this exactly. Do you know what wire that is in the grommet? My sound damper was completely soaked wet from something. Is that power stearing? I'm really curious party concerned from something leaking under the floor board for some time/constantly
😂
@@jaredawesomekelsay as late as this is, I doubt you still have this question. But if so, the "wire" running through that grommet is the shift cable that goes from the gear shift in the steering column to the transmission. It doesn't have any type or power or data going through it. It's just a twisted metal wire with a rubber sheath.
@@HALO-nv1xvI thought maybe it was Ebrake
This is exactly the information I was looking for. Good looking out!
Appreciate your in-depth instructions on the camera install.I have the crew cab and had to obtain a three foot single RCA extension along with a female-to-female RCA adapter I purchased at Wal-Mart.
The hardest part of the whole install was getting down underneath the truck and running the video cable (which I ran through the rubber grommet located on the floor directly underneath the driver's feet.
KUDOS for the simply explained yet succinct instructional!
I'm now a subscriber!
Thank you for the kind words!
in the 07.5-13 Silverados and sierras, there is a grommet in the driver's floorboard that I fished mine thru. a lot less work than pulling out the rear seats. you just have to pull up the carpet a little bit to get to it.
Good to know! Thanks for the tip!
Awesome video
strong rim lighting makes this guy look like a serial killler though
Well done. Just bought the Atoto S8 standard. Installing now.
I know quite some time has gone by since you made this but if you’re still wondering where the rust came from I think I know where. It’s most likely from the cab vents you ran the wiring through. The rubber flaps on them dry out over time and are unable to create a good seal letting water in. Running wires through only makes the problem worse. This usually leads to the rockers rusting from the inside out. The parts are kind of expensive considering what they are, and are not easy to replace. Not only are they kinda hard to get to but I believe they can only be purchased through the dealer which is probably why so many trucks are driving around with this problem. I would advise replacing the vents and taking the wiring all the way under the truck to the engine bay then finding an access point to the dash through the firewall.
Ok thanks for that tip! We will definitely check it out
dude.... this is a GREAT video
Thanks! We appreciate that! Hope it helps you out
I found a grommet under the hood with wire bundle, enough stretch to get thru. Plenty of slack up front to reach head unit, waiting to see if still enough to reach camera!
What's the pink wire? I assum the reverse sensing wire.
NICE VIDEO THAT WAS WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR
Awesome! Glad it helped you!
For me drilling a small hole under the driver side floor panel and adding a grommet is much easier than removing the back seat. Takes only 10 minutes. But that just my way. I know everyone has their own way of doing it. But thanks for a great video!
Definitely another way to do it. We have too much salt on the roads here so any extra exposed metal scares me 😂 thank you tho!
There should be a grommet right in front of the driver seat
Nice work! I recently installed a Dual AV receiver in my 2001 Sierra, now I have good guidance for installing the backup camera. I used the Metra dash trim kit for the double din chassis, using a 3/4" hole saw, to remove the radio basket. No need to fight with rivets, no need to mess with the dash support.
Thanks, great video! Getting ready to do my own install in a 2004 Sierra. Also, you might consider adding a link for a wire harness that comes with a data bus that retains door chime, etc. (example, Metra LC-GMRC-01). Also, when taking out the factory radio I’ve seen a note that the dash support needs to be cut out to allow larger radios to be installed. Guess I’ll find out soon enough.
We didn't have to cut a support for this install although we did read that some people had to cut a support. Good tip about the door chime 👍👍
Nice video bro! I bet you will have over 100.000 subs. in 1 year! Keep it on!
I hope so 😬😬🙃🙃
WRONG, its a year later. Only 12.6k Now where is my $$$$$? :)
Hahaha 😅 slow and steady
Seemed like with the bumper recessed it would limit your field of view on left and right sides.
Maybe better up on the back door latch?
great video . I really liked the stereo install .
Thanks! Hope it helps you out!
I'm so pissed that I got so involved in my tailgate bezel install, then the rust on the rear frame, then painting under the truck, that I never even thought about removing the license plate to get to the trailer wiring plug. I took it out but it only hangs down enough to sit under the truck and work on it. Simple install turned into 20hrs worth of work, BUT it's work that should save my truck in the long run at least. Swear it didn't even surface rust till the last payment.
Lol that's how it goes sometimes! Hopefully it will last awhile for you
followed your steps and when i put my vehicle in reverse it turns off my panel lights where the volume buttons are and dont turn back on. I have to manually go back in to turn them off. Any advice?
I am looking to find how people ran the wire through the bed to the cab of the truck
Something that I am wondering that I didn't see here. I have 2 cameras, one over the license plate, and one on my trailer. Can I choose which input my backup camera will use with this unit ?
Whats the pink wired for?
Always start at the head unit.
Not a bad point!
I read in the instructions that you can wire the reverse camera to come on when you driving, like to check a trailer connection, would i just take the wire for the reverse lights and tap into a ignition power wire? The image in the instructions was kind on vague on this one.
Not quite that simple.
His pink wire has to splice into the light green wire that he mentioned.
Then the red wire on the video cable in the front has to be attached to an accessory power feed. There is usually an accessory power feed going to your radio from the factory wiring harness. (On my 99 Chevy Crew Cab it was the red Factory harness wire).
Then you just twist the two red wires in the back together.
On my video cable on each ends have a red wire. Why do they both have a wire? I connected one wire to the radio wire harness. I’m just wondering since I did that do I need to tap into the trailer lights?
Where does the rear end of the red wire in the video cable get connected?
That’s my question to. I’m thinking it doesn’t connect to anything, only the end that connects to the wire harness to show that there’s a live feed
what is written on the lable of pink wire?
Did you every figure out where the water was coming in to cause the rust under the trim panel?
Not yet. Truck is undergoing major frame surgery and restoration at the moment.
Great video
Question- is this type of camera on trucks secure against thieves or is there a frame to help protect it??
Not really but it's such a cheap camera most wouldn't bother stealing it
not bad but i would consider putting a hole in the cab, using a grommet and silicone seal the slack in the hole from the rca end. may also be a good idea to wrap it in a wire loom and seal it with tape so the wire doesn't wear. no doubt his way will work though. personally i wanna do it once and forget it. i'm really here to confirm what i thought about drawing power off the reverse lights.
thanks for the feedback. you could definitely do it that way as well!
@@TheSundaeDrive if and when.. Work too much. Maybe this weekend if it's not threatening to rain.
@@blueovalfan23 that's always the challenge, finding the time
Great video, very informative. One question, do you have to connect a little power wire that’s coming off of the video RCA do anything in the back of the truck? I realize you have to connect it for a live feed from your head unit wire harness but what about the other end in the back?
That gets hooked to your reverse light wiring
Where did you take that white wire from?
@The Sundae Drive: If you have a stereo that has a 'back-up camera' button on it, can you still tap into the green wire as shown and be able to see the camera turn on while driving by hitting the button on the stereo? Or, I must tap into a different wire to have that feature work? If a different wire, which color is that 1? Thanks for the help and great video!
The pink wire is key
Great video. I've been watching all your videos about the atoto to prepare myself with the installation when it comes in. Can't wait! I have a question, could i tap in the same reverse wire if I'm using 2 different reverse Camara at the same time? I want to use my atoto and my lcd display rear view mirror to work at the same time. Thanks!
Yes you can. Its power as long as there is a good ground. So the 12v will remain strong for both cameras
I have a pink wire and was wondering does anyone else's wire say navigation wire on it as well?
Every head unit PICKS their own colors.
One pink might be power antenna another might be backup cam, another brand pink might be compass.
You have to check the wiring diagram your specific radio to know which wire is for your backup cam.
Can I make the camera spy camera by using USB and adapter?
Can i do this without taking my seats out? I have a 05 4 door silverado
Yes there are multiple ways to get into the can to avoid the seat method
Thanks is really a great video review. Thanks a lot for making it.
You got it! :)
When wiring the red power wire to the pink wire, what wire is the pink corresponding to? I have new radio and backup camera for my 04 tundra and I’m trying to do this for the first time
The pink wire is the trigger wire for notifying the stereo that you are backing up.
When the wire gets power, the radio knows to switch to backup mode.,
My pioneer does not have a pink wire but it does have a purple wire that's labeled "reverse gear signal input
That's the one.
There is NO standard for this.
@ginakerry2588 Kool, thanks
Nice vid!
Can you somehow wire the reverse camera so it comes on at a push of a button? To check trailer while you drive? As well that it works when reverse is engaged? Ty
Yes you definitely could. You would just need to use a 3 way switch. Watch our video for how to hardwire a light bar and the principal will be the same except you will be wiring to the reverse lights instead of the high beams.
I ran one using the running lights on my trailer.
Would love to know more about how to manually activate the backup camera to view on my Atoto head unit (in reverse works already) Just bought the S8 Ultra and the Atoto Pano camera.
Here we go again...
His pink wire has to splice into the light green wire that he mentioned.
Then the red wire on the video cable in the front has to be attached to an accessory power feed. There is usually an accessory power feed going to your radio from the factory wiring harness. Check a factory wiring diagram for your vehicle.

Viola, cam works in all modes! 🎊
Just wondering about what you really did with the white wire when wiring everything to the trailer harness. Can you help me understand?
We found that white grounding wire connect to the frame and just hanging behind the plate from the previous owner so we just utilized it. I re-watched the video and we should have shown that more clearly.
We have the kind that attaches to rearview mirror 2012 Silverado 😢
Man, there’s a grommet right underneath the drivers floor mat. No back seat removal needed
I read a comment recently regarding truck license plate backup cameras performing poorly at night. They said the night license plate illumination lighting affected the backup image at night. Have you experienced anything like that?
yes, happens on the cheaper cameras. i’ve turned off license plate lights but cops could give you trouble about it
Why did you connect the black ground to a white wire then to the frame? Just curious, I’m putting this setup on my truck today.

Yeah that was kind of bogus. You explained it...but....
I would typically just run the black wire to frame.
Extend it with more black wire if necessary .
Great video! Is there an option to remove the backup guidelines? Thanks!
Most cams have some looped wires. Instructions will tell you which to cut to remove the backup lines.
There's also usually a loop to show the video upside down. Don't cut that one unless you mounted the camera upside down.
can you hook it to the touch screen that already comes with the truck?
Most likely not
Is it possible to hook up a camera that comes with a dash cam kit to this head unit or does it need to be that specific backup camera from atoto?
99% of backup cams out there are wired exactly the same way.
You'd have to be extremely unlucky to find one that's not compatible with the tips he's showing here.
Mine doesn’t wanna connect at all. Did all the steps but still the camera doesn’t come on.
Have any luck figuring it out?
Followed the same steps and doesn’t work?
I know this video has been up for a good bit, guys please don’t run the wire thru the cab vent 4:14 , lol my 06 Silverado started collecting water for that reason at the vent, what a professional installer recommended was to drill a hole under the driver seat floor just big enough for the rca wire, install a rubber grommet on the steel part, and put high heat silicone on it, haven’t had a problem since. Just my 2¢
There's already a hole on the driver's side with wiring and a grommet. Just lift the kick plate and carpet a bit.
Hey my name is David and I live in new jersey as well I was wondering if the camera is still holding up after all this time I'm contemplating getting one for my single cab sort bed 06 1500 manual
Also on amazon it's getting mixed reviews so I was just wondering how it held up
It still works perfectly. No issues
Alright thanks I just wanted to make sure I get something that works
No problem! Hopefully it holds up for you as well!
Reverse wire is always the green one? On a Silverado
It definitely is light green 88-99
Does this ATOTO A6 Pro work for 2010 Ford Ranger?
with the proper harness and mounting bracket it should - as long as there is room in your dash
Distance line doesn't work on these unit
Why does my backup camera not work when headlights are on but when. Headlights are off it works
Woah not sure. I’ll have to look at a wiring diagram but I don’t experience that issue
Seomething definitely mis-wired
The pink wire is in the dash what does it say does it say break bro ? Or does it say reverse
The wires will be labeled in various ways. Some say Rev.
Some say Rev cam.
Some say backup.
Just check your radio brochure, it should be listed.
@ginakerry2588 Do you know which one it is Post to say ??
Can I use the rear camera for the front too?
You can mount the camera wherever you want it.
Hello, I followed all the instructions in the video but I still cant get it to work. Everytime I put the car into reverse the screen goes black and I get a yellow exalmation point on the screen. I rechecked all the connections a few times I can not figure it out. If anyone is able to help or shed some light it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
I have the same
Issue
Sounds as if your vehicle knows you are going into reverse, but it has NO VIDEO FEED to display for you.
May be a bad RCA cable or your cam is not getting power, or bad ground on camera.
If you have a cam that has its own infra red lighting , then you should be able to see these lights on, if you cover the cam, even during the day.
Otherwise, it's hard to tell if cam is actually getting power without using a probe.
Does it make it easy to steal since it's the license plate?
You would have to unscrew the license play and cut the wires. You could use security screws to make it less easy to steal. The camera is inexpensive tho so doubt it would be stolen. Worse case it is cheap to replace
Can the camera be turned on with out being put into reverse?
run it on a toggle switch and use a diode.
If your head unit supports camera viewing while driving (most aftermarket do), then you just have to wire it a different way.
If your head unit doesn't have this feature, I'd advise against trying to trick it into thinking you are in reverse. That is an advanced scenario.
So if you are asking how to do it, You probably should not do it.
I would advise hire someone to do that, or get a stereo that supports full time cam operation
If you did want to do that you could use a diode or a toggle switch.
Just make sure that you get the type of switch that
disables power feed from one source when it enables power feed from another power source so you are not double feeding power to the cam while in reverse and melting wires.
I was looking into getting an A6 pro with the available second camera hookup through USB.
The second camera I was going to put in the front, do you guys know what camera I can use that is compatible?
Will the camera be inside the cabin or outside of the car?
@@TheSundaeDrive Outside of the truck, in the front.
We can ask atoto. Maybe they will send is one and we can do an additional video.
@@TheSundaeDrive Thanks for the quick reply! Let me know your findings, some double dins can do this from big brand companies, I was looking for an android 2 din dual camera exclusively
This has been a really good unit so I would definitely recommend it. We will let you know what we find out.
just lost the holeeeee part we’re u hide the wire from the license plate to the back of the cockpit like we’re did u hide it at 😂
We just followed some existing wiring and convenient mount points with zip ties. Just put it where rust debris won't hit it.
Atoto??
Yup 👍
How is the camera holding up?
Still working great! Super nice to have in the truck especially
@@TheSundaeDrive Thanks for the video. Looking to install a similar head unit in my 2012 chevy!
Awesome! Good luck! We really like this one. We just put up a full review of it 👍
@@TheSundaeDrive I will check it out! 😁
Sounds good!
