Thank you so much. I wanted to see a video just like this one. You're giving me the confidence to finally getting a reverse camera. Sweet 🙂
I may be overthinking this, but how does this system know how wide and how long of a vehicle it is mounted on? Is any calibration needed? I am asking because the camera that came with my new car leaves a safe buffer on all sides for my car. So if this system thinks it is leaving a safe buffer on something like a chevy spark, that safe buffer won't apply to a chevy tahoe without calibrating, right?
I threw my truck in reverse to test the connection before plugging it up like you said and the truck backed into my pond. Thanks.
WE DIDN'T CHECK IN DAVE YOU INVADED MY SPACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have a 2004 Dodge Ram 1500, would it be the same concept? I’m trying to locate the reverse wire on it, any advice? Also my camera comes with a power outlet charger, does this mean I don’t have to do that fuse deal?
Thanks. Your video is awesome. I can see other uses for this monitor and camera too.
You are hero my friend ♥️
Instructions are not clear
@0:39, the wire on the bottom right, (the VGA I think), where do you plug the red wires that’s dangling from it?
Thanks

Can I use the same set up and hook it into my stereo and see it on my screen?

Can you advise? I got a backup camera as part of a dashcam for my friend. When. We were wiring it up it came with 2 additional cables for wiring into the reverse light & ground to activate the camera. I done that, I checked it several times with a multimeter and spliced into the correct cables. Then about 15 minutes later the reverse camera wires completely melted and fused together causing a short.
Any idea wtf happened? It was 100% wired to the correct ground and reverse light positive.
Can I use any camera with that monitor?
Great I am looking at one for awhile
Best explanation on YouTube , thanks " Do it your self Dad "
Hello.. Very good video.. I have a question.. I have a camera and a monitor.. You put your camera in your reverse light, so when you go to reserve position the camera turns on.. Then u put the monitor in fuse that is mean that the monitor(screen) its always on? Can we take power both of them from the reverse light? So that it turns on only in the reverse position? I will be waiting for your aply. Thank u.
Ummmm. does your wife know you're using her needle nose pliers…lol

I have the complete connection the same way as told, but the screen only flashes for a second and then the image go off instantly. The screen still has he power but the image just go off. Can you help
