Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Circuit/System Description
Ignition voltage and ground are supplied to the rearview camera. When the transmission is placed into R, a 12 V signal is sent to the rearview camera, Info Display Module, and Radio indicating that camera operation is requested. The rearview camera sends video information to the Info Display Module through a video signal + and a video signal - circuit. The Info Display Module sends the video information to the radio through an additional pair of video signal + and a video signal - circuits. A grounded shielding also wraps the video signal circuits to reduce electronic interference which may degrade the video signal and cause a distorted or otherwise degraded image.
