rear view camera help

[socaldon]

Help! Installing a BOSS LPC35 rear view camera and I need to find the "reverse gear signal wire". I have a basic wiring diagram but that shows nothing. I draw a blank. I don't know where to look. Can someone point me in the right direction or if you have the answer I am sure Henry Ford will bless you.

"Reverse gear signal wire" just means anything that has 12V when in reverse. I usually just use a wire tap to connect it to one of the backup lights since they are right there.

Tap into your Reverse Light on the drivers side of the truck. I believe that your camera is wired all the way to the monitor or head unit. If not and wireless send it back and look at other options. The wireless ones suck.

OK, that makes sense to me. I'll fly with that and I appreciate your response.
