Reversing camera (1 Viewer)

[Happycampers1]

Ok so not being a whizz on vehicle electrics I bought a wireless reversing camera thinking I would be clever. What I failed to realise was that the camera needed a power supply. Instructions say to take it from a nearby supply but where is that?
Any help appreciated

Hi
reverse lights

wire the live supply to the reversing light circuit and negative to the vans chassis. the monitor usually has a cig lighter plug on. that way the camera switches on when you select reverse. if you want to use it as a rear view camera, it needs an ignition switched live running from front to rear of the van

Yep rear lights

Good idea if you just want a reversing camera. If you want a rear view camera (used while driving) you will need a different live feed.

Or just suck it up, chuck it in the bin and buy a decent wired system which will never suffer interference.
