INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
CODING THE RADIO FOR A BACKUP CAMERA
1. Locate the vehicle’s OBD II port usually located under the steering column.
2. Enter the vehicle and CLOSE ALL DOORS.
3. Turn the key to the ON posion.
4. Plug in the OBD coder from the RVCVW-73 kit to the ODB II port.
5. Wait for the OBD coder to nish coding the radio and give a solid GREEN LED. (See chart below)
6. The radio may ash a few me during this process. It can take around 5 seconds to complete the
coding process. If an error occurs, retry the coding procedure.
7. A solid RED LED means that the radio has been decoded. Repeat the process to get a solid GREEN LED.
8. Aer the coding is complete, disconnet the OBD coder and store in a safe place. This OBD coder is VIN
specic and will only work on this vehicle.
9. Unplug the radio power connector for 5 seconds and plug it back in.
10. Put the gear in reverse to test for camera funconality.
In order for the vehicle to recognize the camera and engage it when in reverse gear, the vehicle must be
coded. Use the ODB II coder included in the RVCVW-73 kit.
