Reverse camera light wiring |
|
Hi all
I’ve installed an aftermarket reverse camera on my lr3. So the camera activates the LED lights for hitching up, powered up by the reverse light of the truck.
I tapped the line in to one of the wires in the bulb, but no light came on. Then I tapped it in to the other wire to the bulb, and the light is now always on the camera.
How do I make it so it only lights up when the reverse is on does anyone know?

Its easier to pick up the reverse wire in the trailer wiring plug in the left rear panel.

green with brown stripe I think
Not the very thick one though
Sounds like a camera fault to me

Got it lovely cheers
It was the USB adapter powering the camera. Must have been too high voltage.

are you looking on the car side or the light units itself.
On the light, it probably a green wire, right by the reverse bulb!
