The TE-RVMCBT is a replacement rearview mirror that has a 4.3” TFT screen built in, Bluetooth
functions and with dual video sources, one for reverse viewing with the TE-SBC camera, the
other for any video source with a composite video output. The mirror comes with the most
widely used mirror mount to fit many vehicles, or it can use the optional mirror brackets which
are sold separately (Check with your place of purchase for these optional brackets).
II. Specifications
III. Installation
Rearview Mirror
1) Remove the existing mirror from the vehicle.
2a) If the OEM mirror has the D style mounting tab on the windshield (most common
mounting tab) then mount the mirror and continue to step 3.
2b) If the OEM mirror has any other style mount than the D style mounting tab, please contact
your place of purchase about optional mounts.
3) After mirror has been mounted, attach the microphone plug to the cable located at the
rear of the mirror and run the microphone cable towards the driver’s side ensuring the
driver has a clear vocal path with no obstructions then attach it by removing the self
adhesive backing. Attach power cable and video cable, then route wire harness neatly
from the mirror across the headliner and down the A-pillar. Be careful when routing
the harness so it does not interfere with any side curtain airbags or gets pinched when
reinstalling any interior parts needed to take off when routing harness.
Camera
1) Find a suitable location to mount the camera, there are two ways to mount this camera
either a Surface mount or with the supplied Flush mount hardware.
2) “Surface mount” install, make sure the camera’s view is unobstructed and be careful not to
drill into any wires that might damage the vehicle. When all connections have been made
and before mounting the camera, verify the camera is working and has good view of the
area. Then mount the camera down with the supplied two screws.
3) “Flush mount” install, make sure the camera’s view is unobstructed and be careful not
to drill into any wires that might damage the vehicle, also check to make sure you have
enough depth for install. When all connections have been made and before mounting the
camera, make sure the camera comes on and you have a good view of the area. Use the
supplied 16.5mm hole saw bit to drill a hole for flush mounting of camera and use flush
mount hardware. Once the camera is verified working, remove the front lens by unscrewing
it counter-clockwise and remove the surface mount bracket then reattach the front lens
and use the flush mount hardware to install.
IV. Connection
Rearview Mirror
1) Connect the RED wire to the +12 volt reverse wire of the vehicle.
2) Connect the BLACK wire to ground (a metal, non-painted surface).
3) Connect the GREEN wire to the reverse trigger wire (RED wire coming from YELLOW
video rca) on camera. (The rearview mirror uses this to sense reverse and transmits a video
signal to the mirror).
