Hi all, Just ebuyed myself a used reversing camera and hoping to fit it tomorrow. It looks pretty decent with a lcd screen and I took the advice of others from my last post and went for a wired version as opposed to wireless due to the length of my van.
Anyhow on arrival it has no instructions on fitting but I thought hey ho, can't be that hard. On the face of it it looks simple. I have from the camera, 3 wires. One is fused so that obviously is the power possitive cable. However there are two other thinner wires, one black which im thinking is possibly an earth, and then a white third wire? Would that be the one for the revering switch? I am thinking that I would like to keep it powered on all the time the ignition is on by taking the power source from the cigarette lighter, however what would happen to the reversing switch wire if I wanted that opton?
any help gratefully accepted even if wrong.:thumb:
