I have installed my back up camera, tapped into the reverse wire to engage the camera once in reverse. I also installed a toggle switch to turn the camera on when towing.

Problem: when the toggle switch is on so is the reverse bulb on that side. I have read you can put a diode inline to eliminate the bulb illuminating when the toggle is on. I have no idea where I should put this diode, can someone explain?

 
why do people on this forum like to be dikks rather then trying to help people through their installs? If you don't have anything useful to say then stay out of my thread fukktards--not surprised your a grease eatin porch pig
