Which head unit connector for the rear camera?

King_Mustard

I have a rear parking camera.

Which connector do I plug it (the single phono) into? (please see photo below)

Would it not be C,yellow aux video in?
Of course Im no expert on such 'openrations'

I notice there is a 'front camera in'.

I was expecting to see a 'rear camera in'.

I'd give that one a go, unless there a need to use a dvd.

I'd be going with the one labelled "Rear Camera In", pin 13 on the power block, RHS of the image.


Or is that too easy?

Power block for a phono connection?

Sorry, that's the ISO block. You can't connect anything to those.

Why can't you connect to there? I get that you'd have to cut the phono plug off and perhaps solder the new wire in.


You might need to also run a feed to pin 20 (reverse)?

Based on your other car mod thread (LED strip), I get the feeling your not capable to be making these types of modifications

That 'Power' block would be better labelled 'Power and others'. I guess it's a Chinese no brand head unit.


You'll need to have the power block that plugs into the back of the unit, and coming out of it, should be a female phono connector. And as AdrianC says, it looks like number 13 is what you need. Are you wiring your own power block?!
Ironically the power for the rear camera comes from block B (number 1), and you'll need to run both those cables to the back of the car - you should hopefully be able to find a decent ground at the back of the car for the camera, otherwise that's a 3rd cable to run to the head unit, into block B number 4.
