Always top notch installs and info! great job once again!!
You guys have done so many of these installs and I've seen all of them so when I installed mine it was flawless thank you
Thanks guys ! Hope you guys are having a great day !
can you please advise why you cut the red wires off from the yellow rca, and why you wouldnt use them as the reverse line trigger?
Dean Fernando. I install one in my 07 Silverado and hit in the bullseye. Thanks again I really appreciate it. Now i Have coworkers asking me for help.. And now my mother in law wants me to install one as well. She almost hit someone pulling out at the Costco the other day.. I'm still trying to find the video on the stereo install on the Rav 4 you guys did.
Great vid, as always!
Your videos are the best among the many attempts to make something simple look complicated. Keep up the great work!
Don’t get it, you snipped the wire that went with the camera input wire, then you ran a whole new wire that you had to run the whole length of the car, you could have used the wire that you snipped instead. 🤔
The reason he snipped it is because that original wire is very thin and a very common failure point. You want to use a lower gauge wire.
Well at least you explained it. But I also didn't know why he did it. He should of explained the reason why he cut the wire and also talked a little slower and been more clear in the area where he was cutting as all those wires were a hot mess of confusion. But thank you.
Cam 300 for the win!
I was able to get this exact camera installed and working thanks to your older video on this product! Your instructions made it a very simple project to do! Thank you for another great video!
So I installed the boyo version of this camera, worked great for a week, then the image was constantly over exposed during the day, to the point it was completely washed out. Returned it and got a second one. Same issue out if the box. Installed exactly like you guys do. Kenwood h/u. Am I just unlucky or is there a known issue that causes this?
@@waynealight i have found that a lot of the B/U cameras i have installed do not last very long.. unless you buy a top notch brand like echo master. but i also live in Michigan and not even the good cameras last through the winter. i see a lot of times you get moisture between the camera and lens. so you definitely are not alone.
@@Hoppysjunkyardrally thing is this echomaster camera is made by boyo. Paid $150 to make sure it wasn't a knockoff. What's why I'm assuming 2 doa is just bad luck.
@@waynealight oh no doubt. dang man that stinks for sure! hopefully your new one will hold up!
Great video. One question, where do I hook up the red and black wires going to stereo. Do they go to the wire harness coming from the stereo or to another source of power? Thanks
The bending lines is that part of the camera functions, radio or smart harness? How does it know your turning the steering wheel?
But also think you guys should focus on bluetooth mic's on how to reduce road noise, and ways on how to custom mount them to where it looks factory...
why not use the red wire you cut for for your reverse wire???? one less wire to run???
Dean instead of running a new power /ground wire can u ground camera in back and use red wire supplied then hook up to power at radio ?
Isn’t the wire you cut off the RCA meant to run from the reverse circuit up to the head unit? Why cut that off just to run a whole new wire in its place? 🤷♂️
Will that camera provide dynamic lines for a Porsche Boxster 2015? PCM radio.
do you know of any waterproof cover for these connections? I want to put a back up camera on my camper and run the wires to the back of my truck and be able to plug the rca cable and power only when towing. And looking for water proof type cover the the connections on the truck when not hauling our camper . Not finding anything
Seems these guys only succeded in confusing people, many people dont have reels of wires at home so would prefer to use the tails. just tell us where they go pleeeeese
After hooking up the purple wire to the purple wire on the stereo, do you just run it to the backup light wire and hook it up there. Does it need to be hooked up to the camera itself.
Hi I like the backup up where can buy it
What’s a good back up camera that’s wireless but cheap?
Hi guys. I need help. I put all connections correct on my kenwood 995s and kenwood backup up camera. And not coming on when reverse.
What kind of tape is for the exterior mate
What wire on the back of ds18 DDX6.9 on the head unit harness I have 2 pink wires 1 is labledFCCD. THE other labeled Back light control and a solid orange wire I'm pretty sure that's illumination no label also a solid brown labeled Break detect
oh my god I search for week and finally the answer I been needing
Great video! I’m getting ready to do this to my first car. I’m still a little confused on tapping into the brake light though. Do I put the camera wire into the brake light plug or have it come off the brake light wire (so it like teed in?) or is the wire complete swapped out for the camera trigger wire??
I wish people would answer this question as there are lots of people asking too. Thanks.
When that white reverse light comes on that is the trigger. Find the wire that makes that white light come on and splice/tsection it. The reason he calls it the brake light is because the reverse light is often where the brake light housing is.
🔥🔥🔥
Can you show replacing a backup camera for a Acura MDX 2008?
I saw a lot of your videos and I can't found the answer to my problem. I have a boyo vtl375ltj trying to connecting with a Pioneer AVH-W4500NEX in a 2006 chevy silverado 1500. But After changing here and there I can't. Now my radio is showing a black screen with the parking lines as soon I turn the truck on and If I put reverse the camera show video. I dont have any button to get out of that only when I disconect my purple/white from the pioner interface. Please, do you have any idea to guide my in the right way?
What model # is it or link to site?
My unit is installed to an Android unit for a 2012 Sonata. Taking power for cam directly from reverse light. Triggering the head unit with #8 from the drivers kick panel. Camera works fine in reverse but stays triggered for some reason while the engine is running in any other gear,but cam powers off, so there's an error screen that overrides the home screen every time, unless you shut the engine off and leave the accessory on, which brings the home screen back up. I feel like this is a software issue as the menu that pops up for the camera error screen is a settings menu for a 360 cam system, but you can't select anything.
I'm not using the RCA red wires at all, as per your video.
Checked power on both the reverse and the trigger wire...both cut off power out of reverse,so I'm not sure why the head unit still thinks there's a signal to pull.
Any ideas?
Just curious why you don't use the Red tails from the RCA's to activate the Reverse Cam Trigger?? I would assume that's why they are included??
There's a reason they don't explain why they didn't use them, and that's because they don't actually know. There is no reason to not use that wire as a reverse trigger going to the deck.
This car already had reverse trigger in the harness itself so there is no need to use it
Goodness !!!! After this Video , there should never be another Question for All these DIY guys
This is the best tutorial backup cameras have seen yet oh, I did have one question can you splice the video cable oh, I have a older Class C motorhome that is pre-wired and the connectors don't match up thank you
overkill
Best Video I have seen, good job, & you show where to get split loom for protecting wires running under vehicle. Also the "Red Wire" kicked my butt, going to run 3 wires from back camera to Monitor, going to gv. it another try Monday.
I did it like this but my camera is always on someone know what I can I do
There was no reason to cut the red wires. That is the detect/trigger wire. you simply patch that into the reverse light power wire and connect to the detect wire on the radio.
Geez - you are an intelligent guy. Great video. Thanks.
What if you want to use the rearview camera while driving? What do we wire it for reverse are drive?
What do you think Andrew
I'm really missing something here... I have the camera hooked up, and I can manually get it to fire. But it isn't making my radio switch over. That setting is turned on ("Reverse interrupt" on my JVC), but no worky. I've tried to tap in up front, tap in in the back. Is there a different wire than the wire I used for power to the camera? That's already hooked to the reverse lights. Put it in reverse, camera comes on. Take it out of reverse, blue screen with "no input", so I have that part correct. This last time, I just tapped into the same power wire that I used for my power to the camera. I'm connected to the red wire. Is there truly something different I need to connect to? Or since I already have the power tapped in, do I need to do the other side?
Did you figure this out? I installed ahead unit identically to my buddy. He has a higher trim car of the same model. His triggers properly, mine does not. Canbus? Going insane.
@@GB-oj2gt LOL, it was one of those take-it-apart-and-put-it-back-together things where you go back and forth so much you can't remember how you did it. It works, but now I can't remember what the ultimate solution was.
Dean have you heard of or actually listened to any of the gravity amplifiers? I have looked every where and can not find any info on these amps.
No never

i have the same radio, when i put it in reverse the camera comes on, but if push the camera button, it does not come on. do I have something wrong or is the normal?
It sounds like your camera is powered by the reverse light and not by the Acc(keyed switch) like these videos recommend therefore only works when you put it in reverse.
@@honiswagner7674 Thank you, you are right!
Is the title translated from Spanish?
What brand of back up camera is that
echo master 0:57
They never explained what to do with that one RCA at end, not mention this backup camera came with a coupler
In case you guys haven't noticed everyone is driving an SUV these days so how do you get those cables from the camera on the tail gate to the inside of the car? I've looked and looked at the tail gate on a 4Runner and can't see anyway to do it.
4runners are rough because of the motorized glass. On the left side of the trunk hatch, there’s a small little channel you can feed a wire grabber for fish wire. It’s going to take a couple of tries, but you can get it in there. But you have to make sure you do not interfere with the glass otherwise it will snap that wire
I know several people that need a backup camera
They sure know their stuff..
Your title has a typo, good video, but there's a typo, and it might confuse people
you added wire for no reason.
It would be nice if you talk a little slower for us slow people not all of us can catch it that quick
Normally u guys are good , but I learned nothing , I already know what u showed, u didn't show where the wires get hooked up to in the radio, and at the begining u were snipping wires in a cluster of wires which made it hard to see what you were doing.
I have a 2005 caravan and I want to hook up the camera to the license plate light. I have 2 black wires leading to the light. How do I know what one to use?
And do I connect the camera red wire to the light source and use the black for the ground?
