INSTALLATION
INSTALLING THE SENSOR CABLES
1.
Route the cables into the trunk panels of the vehicle either by drilling and hole or using a
pre-existing rubber grommet. If you have the drill a hole, make sure to seal the hole once
the installation is complete to prevent leaks and keep out any other weather elements.
If
installing on a truck, route the cables underneath the bed of the truck. Please make sure
to avoid any moving parts like the suspension or axels. You may be able to locate a
factory wire harness that you can zip-tie the cables to and route them the whole length of
the truck following the factory wire harness.
2.
Zip-tie the sensor cables together along with the camera video cable and run them down
the length of the vehicle.
(See FIGURE 6)
NOTE:
Try to avoid running the sensor cables next to any high-current power wires or
electrical devices in the vehicle as this may cause false sensor warnings during operation of
the system.
INSTALLING THE CONTROL MODULE
1.
Mount the control module under the vehicle dash board or behind the trunk panels in the
rear of the car somewhere out of the way. Use the supplied 3M double side tape and
stick the module down to the surface.
(See FIGURE 7)
Make sure to clean any dust or
dirt from the mounting surface before applying the tape.
NOTE:
Some installers prefer to mount the control module in the trunk panels instead of
underneath the dash board. This is okay to do, but please make sure that the module is clear
of any moisture or excessive vibration in the trunk. If installing the module under the dash,
please make sure to keep it clear of any moving parts such as the steering column or pedals.
This way you can avoid getting the sensor, buzzer, camera and monitor cables caught or
pinched after the installation is complete.
2.
Connect the sensor cables into the control module. The sensor ports on the module are
labeled A, B, C and D which corresponds to the sensors which are also marked A, B, C
and D. Please make sure to plug in the correct sensor to the corresponding sensor port.
INSTALLING THE MONITOR & BUZZER
1.
Use the provided 3M double sided tape to mount the Monitor and Buzzer in the vehicle.
(See FIGURE 8 & 9)
You can mount the monitor almost anywhere on the vehicle dash
board, center console or even on the windshield. The buzzer can be mounted on the A-
Pillar or on the back side of the rear view mirror. Once the locations are set, route the
cables from the buzzer and monitor to the control module.
2.
There is a volume adjustment on the side of the buzzer that allows you to turn the sound
to a higher or lower tone or you can also turn it completely off.
(See FIGURE 10)
The
OFF setting is normally used if you have a trailer hooked up to the vehicle and don’t want
the buzzer to sound constantly when the vehicle is in reverse.
