USING THE POWER DOWN CIRCUIT
The power down circuit is designed to extend the life of the camera.
Note: The green wire is only used to power on the camera and module.
1. Tap the GREEN wire to two red wires, one coming from the camera
and one coming from the module.
(This will provide the camera with a safe guard)
2. Locate the reverse light trigger wire in the vehicle and connect it
to the RED wire. (This will trigger the 12v input)
3. Connect the YELLOW to any available constant source in the car.
4. Connect the BLACK wire to any ground source in the car.
INSTALLING THE CAMERA AND CABLE
1. Remove the rear panel.
2. Drill a 5/8 size hole in the location
3. Fish the wires through the drilled hole and through the pass through
into the trunk/cargo area.
4. Remove the factory radio to gain access to the factory connectors.
5. Route the wires towards the radio and make the power and video
connections. For powering up the camera, use the 12v output from
the power down circuit to avoid harm to the camera.
6. Make sure both ground wires have contact with chassis ground.
USING THE OBD-73
In order for the vehicle’s system to recognize the camera and engage it
when in reverse, the vehicle’s system must be coded.
