[QUOTE="lliamiskool, post: 8882987, member: 689910"] Hi all I am installing a reverse camera for my father and his 2008 Dodge ram 3500. He has a pioneer DMH-1500NEX radio and I bought Boss LPCB40 camera on Amazon. I was just trying to see if it would work first, so I hooked it up to the correct port on the radio (I checked the manual) and as for the small red wire, I tied that into the +12 V wire. I checked that with a multimeter. On the radio, the reverse camera is turned on and the polarity is set for battery and every time I put the truck in reverse I just see a black screen on the radio. Interestingly, enough, the LED lights on the camera turn on when I tap the RC connection on the frame of the radio or the edge of some other RC connections on the radio, but not the one for the camera and put. I’m not sure if that is relevant but I figured I would mention that, know why this camera might not be working? I’m a teenager and have a little bit of experience with electrical but not too much help would be much appreciated. Thank you. I’m trying to get this done before my dad gets back from vacation for a nice surprise. [/QUOTE]
