I ended up putting in an alpine ine-w960 and love it. I couldn't justify the $2800+ price tag for the set up. Mine has built in navigation, Bluetooth, etc. got the radio for $450 then the back up camera was another $100, wiring harness was another $50-$60 so im in it fairly cheap
The reverse wire on the h/u isn't hooked up right now. I never took it back out to see what to do with it. I think I'm going to try running the camera hot and ground to other sources. I would imagine if I did that I could just turn the camera on on the deck and it would work while driving
It's possible it doesn't because of the canbus system for the lights which I'm assuming the reverse lights would be part of that system also. I'm thinking of getting the actual alpine camera for it now that I've read reviews on this one. Impulse buy is why I Have it
No modules I know of? It was just ran to the reverse bulb harness on the passenger side for ground and hot. The video cable was ran to the camera plug on the radio. Maybe I need to put it to the aux spot?
I tapped the 12v into the harness for the reverse bulb. Might not be the right spot. Exactly what you said is what's happening. Now I didn't run the reverse wire to anything off the radio. Assuming that needs to be hooked up to something right?
I have an alpine ine-w960 h/u and a XO Vision back up camera. When the truck is not running and in reverse and turn the camera on it works. As soon as I start the truck it turns off when in reverse, I tapped the wires for the camera into the reverse light on the passenger side reverse light...
I don't have a factory back up camera but I do have a license plate mounted one I just didn't install yet. I did read about using that same harness with the oem camera. Seems they had it pretty well covered
Ok thanks had no clue about that lol
Also the harness I used was a XSVI-6523-NAV for anyone looking. Works perfect. I didn't plug in the rca's on it to try and use the aux plug so not sure if that works or not
