BACKUP CAMERA INSTALLATION - Hardwire Power
This installation is based on powering the Camera over the reverse tail lights. When installed as
directed, the camera image will only appear when the vehicle is in reverse.
Caution: This unit is designed to operate on a 12V/24V DC NEGATIVE GROUND electrical system.
Connecting to other types of electrical systems will cause damage to your vehicle. Please contact
the manufacturer if you are unaware of the system type in your vehicle.
1. Remove your license plate
2. Determine the best route for the Camera Cable from the top of your license plate to the inside
of the vehicle. You may need to drill a small hole in the panel behind where the license plate is
situated.
3. Take the Camera and run the cable through the Rubber Ring Grommet, then from the outside of
your car to the inside. Pull the cable through so that there is a small amount of slack and you can
still move the Camera around the license plate.
4. Locate the reverse taillights wiring behind your reverse light. You may need to remove the
interior panel in order to locate. You only need to attach the Camera to ONE of the reverse
lights, not both. If you cannot manually locate the taillight cables, please contact the vehicle
manufacturer or reference a wiring diagram for your vehicle.
