    Tip for future wiring… When you have to solder multiple wires, it’s always better to stagger your cuts and solders, that way you don’t end up with a big knot in one area where all your connections are soldered together.. Helps a lot with clean wiring especially when you wanna actually loom everything up nice and neat.

    I’ve had my Taco for about three weeks and have decided that this is really needed. I just ordered mine. Too bad the rear camera doesn’t have dynamic lines. Those would be nice. Thanks Chloe.

    Got mine alast year too...since we had a lot of rain up here in norcal it has a little moisture inside the lens..I recommend putting silicone where the wire enters the camera to seal it from water

    So I watched both your video, and R4T’s video, and I noticed you hooked up the power wire out at the fuse by the battery, but the didn’t seem to hook it up. They did cut the wire, and said they didn’t need it. Is it necessary to install those power wires, or not?

  • @akoss11
    @akoss11 2 роки тому

    Thanks for the informative video, I've been wanting a front-up camera for solo plow mounting forever now. R4T shipped fast and love the product. The only problem I had was with the video on the front camera not working/being intermittent, turns out it was an issue with the insulation inside the heatshrink on the back side of the relay. Probably an issue when the soldered the screens together and overheated the center conductor/insulation - one of the joys of working with screened cable. Otherwise a great kit, and easy install (except for getting through the bulkhead!)

    Interesting to note the difference in resolution. The front looking much crisper and clearer. I’m wondering if you could simply replace the rear camera as well? Maybe you could simply cut the wires near the rear camera and splice a new one in?

    Your channel has been very aspiring and fun. I recently purchased the Anytime Camera from R4T… for my 2019 TRD Taco.
    I’ve tried to figure out why the camera switch doesn’t light up at night while all my instruments lights do? did I wired it wrong? Please let me know. Other than that,
    front and back amber lights light up ok on the switch. Thank you so much for your support!

    My current wire set up is:
    Male Front Camara RCA connected to female RCA (1) on switch (not marked)
    24 Pin Male RCA connected to female (2) RCA on Switch (marked)
    Male RCA on switch connected to 24 Pin Female
    I have tried multiple configurations and I have only been able to either get the switch to display both options on the front camara or the rear.

    I know there's some good wiring tips in the comments like staggering your solders, really good advice. I know you're an electrical engineer but something I've noticed personally and through other people is soldering is not great for use in vehicles. It'll work, dont get me wrong but there's a reason you won't find solder connections in a factory harness. They can heat up or degrade over time in a vehicle and then you're left with wire pulling against itself, coming apart, difficult to track down draws on your battery, normal gremlins. I used to solder everything but after seeing a few of the joints coming apart and spending way too much time hunting a draw in my brother in-laws XJ I switched over to deutsch connectors and bulkhead fittings. Weather pack connectors also work great. It's super clean and they're not expensive. You can also pick up OEM connectors for making jumper harnesses. Its all weather tight and unless you get violently angry and pull on them as hard as you can they'll last as long as the rest if your harness. Love your videos. I'm catching up on all of em 😊

    Another great video. I've referenced you for so many of my mods. I have so many questions about this product. I have the BeatSonic product, and is good in some ways, and leaves something to be desired in others. I am looking at your system as an option, or considering rewiring to do some hybrid of the two.
    1. Just to confirm, if you put the front camera on, and then put the vehicle in reverse, the screen doesn't automatically switch to the reverse camera? My BeatSonic does. It makes parallel parking super easy and the cameras are convenient to use for that. This is the only strength of the BeatSonic...see my following questions.
    2. Does your navigation still continue to work when you have either camera buttons pressed? My navigation is disabled when I do on the BeatSonic. It takes a while for the Navigation to catch up and figure out where I am, once I turn the camera off.
    3. When you unplug your positive battery terminal or completely unplug the head unit, does it take about 60 miles of driving for your camera button and reverse camera to be recognized and work again? My BeatSonic does, but I'm not sure if that would happen with the normal reverse camera anyway.
    Thanks!

    Your wiring diagram saved me a bunch of time, I was watching a video for the install that was for a 2020 not the 2019, totally different wiring process. Your video made the process all make sense. The Anytime camera install video on UA-cam neglected to say it was for a 2020 and up 🤯. I am all soldered up and ready for the install. Thanx for the great video.
