[QUOTE="budahbuddy803, post: 8367322, member: 566041"] I just wired up my Pyle PLCM18BC to my Pioneer AVH-X3700BHT this weekend. The wires that came with the camera are a yellow video cable, and then a cable with a red and black wire. I ran the yellow video cable from the camera to the head unit. I ran the red and black wire and tapped into the reverse light's power and ground wire. I also ran the "backup" wire from the head unit to the power wire of the reverse light. When I put the car in reverse, the screen changes to the "backup camera screen" but I am not getting any video. When I put it in any other gear, the head unit goes back to the appropriate screen. My thinking is maybe there isn't enough power for the reverse lights to power up the camera? I'm not really sure but any help would be appreciated. [/QUOTE]
