FINALLY!!! A wiring video that made sense. I have spent days looking at video after video and they never explained to the layperson what and why they were doing. Mysterious harnesses and wires appearing out of thin air already put together off screen. This actually was easy to follow and no extraneous octopus wires falling from the sky. I also appreciate your recommendation to wire and test BEFORE mountjng the camera. THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!

Hey man, thanks for the info. I was stuck on which wire to use for the reverse trigger. And I used the brown wire as there was no pink one in my loom. This was a small project I was doing with my son, and we had fun... a lot actually, especially with your hand gestures...😀 So thanks again. All the best.

This fixed my issue of the camera not coming on in my Corolla with an android screen. It was a brown wire not labeled so yeah I would have never figured this out. Great video!

Great! Without previous experience, I've installed the rear camera thanks to your video (the unit I bought, on Aliexpress, came with a wire already "ready" to be jointed to the red wire, marked "back", no need to cut and split the "pink" wire)> A big THANK YOU! 😁

Have wired a good few reversing cameras in past, mainly on excavators and trucks and this one I bought for my VW caddy threw me off. Spent ages neatly wiring it into tailight loom and was puzzled when it didn’t work. Would have been handy if stero manufacturer labelled cables. I was sure the little blue wires were the signal ones. Will have to go back out to workshop now and get it sorted, cheers for the good video, don’t know what I would have done without it

Holy shit… after searching for months I found this. I don’t know how I didn’t before but this is an absolute godsend

This video right here! This is the one that I have been looking for. Followed the steps on my BMW 335i and it worked perfectly with my Eonon head unit and backup camera. Thanks for the info. The trigger wire from the canbus is the key.

Thank you for this awesome video. Probably the most informative & slowing how to properly splice. One question...at the end of the video you said not to forget to connect the ground. Might be a silly question but where do I connect the negative ground to? Thanks!

F-250 install....Thank you so much. Just like you said, regardless of wire color (mine was Brown even though the manual diagram showed Pink) the Third from the Ground splice between the CAN box is the Ticket!!!! I have been back and forth with the customer service rep and technician sending generic videos and fuzzy pictures from the slow boat from china Alibaba company (Reako Sounds plug and play K2001N Android 12) that I bought mine from. So for $50 bucks, I really can't complain!

Thanks to you @AudioVisionUSA I just got it installed tonight on my VW MK6 after watching tons of YT videos, yours nailed it simplified! Saved me $AU 150 in labor fee bigtime!

This worked great. Very puzzled when I finished the wiring but I still had this weird split/B&W image on screen. Checked my Eonon (android) settings and you can toggle the camera from PAL to something else to NTSC (which is what we need here in the US).

Great explanation! Thank you so much ! 👍

Best instructional video👏👏👏

I just installed this radio in my Jeep jk 2007 model with factory amp. But I bought a reverse camera that mounts to the rear tire Carrie. I followed these instructions but the rear camera doesn’t have same connection. It has a black one with 4 pins that goes to camera and the front before camera connected to pins has the black and red wires that comes off the main wire. Would I just connect the 4 pins connector and open the end to camera to find red wire and splice into it and ground the black wire.

Mine is a different connection much straightforward and simple and it works well

Just figured mine out on my own,instead of stripping the pink one I connected to one of the two little blue ones at the side of the video cable.

I did mine with a canbus and I connected it to the reverse light worked only when car wasn’t on only ignition position 1 but when I turned engine on and put in reverse didn’t work so that’s were I made my mistake thanks for the video I’ll re do it again tomorrow

Thank you sir I very much appreciate your help

Thanks a lot for the clear instructions. I will test that tomorrow, but I'm sure it will work. This gave me the confidence to do it. Real valuable content. The iso cable comes with a clear "Rear" flag on it. On the canbus plug there's nothing AND it's already plugged elsewhere. I knew it was the third cable next to the red power wire, but it's hard to start cutting wires on a brand new unit when you're not an electrician. one is always afraid to ruin the circuits and the warranty. But I think the ground comes already from the yellow video cable. I guess the little black wire can be let free

Does the pink (3rd wire) receive the 12v when the vehicle is switched into reverse via the canbus. I'm using original camera and not connecting the additional camera and not spicing pink. The unit should receive power and switch screen even if the camera is blank. What controls power to this pink wire - Is it programming in Canbus or the Android device configuration?

It's a non sense. Accessory wire send 12v constantly when ignition is on. The camera will be always powered when u drive. And the cable camera going to the head unit has only the video connector and a little red wire. This red wire should be connected to the trigger and plug the yellow connector with the yellow "camera in" connector of the head unit.

That's the hope, at least. Seems like sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. Dependent on whether you have an 1. auto vs manual transmission. 2. If your canbus actually "communicates transmission gear reverse" as some canbus are designed for other features in different cars and may not be associated with transmission gear status. If this is the case then even if you have a canbus - it won't work if you splice it like in this video. To figure it out (I think) just hook up your android head to power before you do any splicing and cutting and just put your car in reverse and see if the android head screen switches to a "Reverse cam view" regardless of if the cam is actually attached. I guess the only plus to attaching the cam before you install it is to confirm that it draws enough power from the "reverse" wire.

Heya. Im having trouble with the camera. It works fine to be fair, but at night it takes atleast 8 seconds for the brightness to adjust. Is there a possible way to have the camera stay on (not visible on screen) as soon as the rear lights turn on? Thanks for the great video btw

Your unit is probably slow or faulty. With Canbus, as soon as you go into reverse it will signal your camera, if it’s not adjusting then no wire changes will fix that. Even if you link it to your taillight I’m pretty sure it would still do that, not sure just my thought
