RPK5-GM4101 wire connections in 2013 Camaro
I have a Mylink radio from 2013 now which I have changed to new radio. But I can't get the reversing camera to work. I have plugged the included cable into the new radio but nothing happens when I put it in reverse. But have seen that there is a cable on the new radio that says reverse camera wire!
Does it need to be connected as well and where should it be connected? |

Look for a wire from the harness that's the same color. It provides the power to the camera when you put out in reverse...

I tried it but it didn't work. I contacted support and they said since it's a manual gearbox I need to connect it to the cable that goes to the tail lights. How can I find it?

Are you needing the back up light wire on the car or the trigger wire on the radio?

Since its a manual gearbox you can pick it up underneath on the side of the transmission.
You could also run to the Drivers rear tail light and pick up the reverse wire in there. The radio is looking for 12 volts on the camera wire to switch the screen to Reverse Camera Mode. |
