by the arrow pointing towards the top of the
factory housing.
3. Place the factory housing over the camera.
4. Replace the 3 factory screws. The positions
differ depending on the factory backup

WIRING
1. Re-assemble the camera into the tailgate.
2. Run the wire, following the old camera wiring from
the tailgate to the truck bed. (Figure A)
3. Once inside the vehicle, you can power the camera
via a reverse trigger from the taillight. Connect
the RED wire to the reverse trigger. Connect the
BLACK wire to a chassis ground. The RED wire is also
located at the opposite end of the harness with the
YELLOW RCA if the user wants the camera powered
with an accessory circuit.
4. Run the wire down the length of the vehicle care-
fully. Make sure not to run near any objects that can
cause extreme heat or catch the wire. (Figure B)
5. Connect the YELLOW RCA to the aftermarket radio.
There is a Red wire with the RCA, this can be used
in two ways. This wire can bring a reverse trigger to
the front of the vehicle if the camera is powered in
the rear. This can also be used to power the camera
in the front if the camera is desired to be powered
via an accessory circuit.
Figure A Figure B

REV. 6/18/21 INSTAXPIO-JT1
• If power is required for the camera, the connection must be hardwired.
• This can be done at the radio using the Red wire for power, and the Black wire for ground.
• The Black Ground wire from the camera will have to be extended and routed to the front
with the video RCA.
Note: Remove the glovebox to route the camera RCA to the dash.
If equipped with TPMS, and you wish to add the visual to the Pioneer Radio screen:
• Route the LD-CAN3T harness behind the glovebox and connect to the junction pictured
below. Any available spot can be used. If no spots are available, unplug one of the 2-pin
connectors and connect to the other end of the LD-CAN3T. This will connect to the LD-CH5-
PIO 2-Pin labeled “CAN 3”.
If you do NOT have the LD-CAN3T:
• Connect Brown/White from the LD-2PIN-CAN to one of the 2-pins Yellow wire, then Brown
to the other wire in the 2-Pin. This will connect to the LD-CH5-PIO 2-Pin labeled “CAN 3”.
Brown/White = CAN LOW Brown = CAN High
Note: The glovebox must be removed to access this connection. Refer to photo for connection point.
