Alright I need some expert help.... Installing the factory Backup Camera kit I bought from my local dealer on my 2015 Ram 2500 SLT with the Uconnect 5.0 radio. Did some reading on this topic and it appears many of the 2500's already have all the body wiring in place. I have installed the new handle with camera, installed the camera jumper harness which goes to the camera and the power tailgate lock (which mine had from factory). The tailgate to body harness on my truck already had 8 wires and is identical to the one in kit. Where the tailgate harness plugs in the body harness, there is 8 wires there on both sides from the factory. Hoping that meant I was good to go!
No such luck! Went to dealer this afternoon and they flashed the XAC sales code. Now the radio screen goes blue in reverse but I'm not getting feed from the camera. I am really hoping to avoid installing the whole body harness and doing all the splicing and changing of pins like the directions say. Anybody had this issue? Should I pull the radio and see what it looks like there? Or maybe something with the connector the plugs into the BCM in the cab underneath the drivers dash? Hoping somebody has a easy solution - thanks!
