Rear Camera and monitor:
1. Connect the RED wire of the Cameras Power Harness to the wire that supplies
power to the reversing light globe (the wire that is energised only when the car is
put into reverse). Before making the electrical connection, temporarily disconnect
the camera from the power plug whilst making the connection to the back up
light. Use a suitable splicing/crimp connector (Scotch lock type) or strip
connector. This connection can also be soldered, making sure to insulate the joint
with electrical insulation when done. The camera has only one wire to connect
(po).There is no need to hook up a ground wire as the camera gets its
earth through the RCA lead. Hooking up the earth may cause a ground loop. In
this case Horizontal lines will appear in the image.
2. After you have insulated the join you can connect the power harness to the
camera. NOTE:
Some cars that Run LED or Computer controlled lighting systems may not deliver
enough
voltage to run the camera. If the voltage at the reversing wire light is less
than +12 volts it may be necessary to use a relay to supply power to the transmitter
harness from the wiring in the front of the car. In this case the reversing light only
needs to trigger the relay.
Make sure that you do not drill holes in the panels that have an opposite face that
is visible
outside the car for example guard panels. In fact, whenever drilling holes in
the bodywork of vehicle, always see what is on the other side.
3. Connect one end of the Supplied RCA Video lead to the RCA lead coming from
the camera then run the RCA lead to the front under side of the driver side dash
board (This is were the monitors loom will be located). To do this you will need
to remove the rear seat to pass the cable into the cabin area and you will need to
remove the door scuff plates to run the wire along the side of the vehicle. The
RCA cable will be hidden when you replace the scuff plates. When the cable is at
the front of the vehicle the RCA cable needs to be run from the scuff plate area
to the under side of the dash behind the kick trim (Remove to run cable)
4. The Mirror mount monitor has two power wires to be connected. Connect the
Red wire (Acces12V) to a wire that is energized when the accessories
position on the key is active ( When the radio is on) and the black wire to a
ground wire or you can connect the back wire to the body of the car using the
steel of the cars body behind the kick trim as an earth. In this case drill a small
1/8th hole and connect the wire using a suitable O ring terminal. Scrape off the
cars paint around the hole to ensure a good earth.
5. Connect the RCA lead to the RCA Connector from the Monitors loom.
