i doubt it. i installed my nav myself and the plug came with the harness i got for the navi so that means it is part of the nav. i just dont know why some harnesses has a plug and some dont.

i'm about to give up on this...ejsofla here replaced my harness with a new one..i got the camera to work but my vertical view is messed up(screen view rolling). i tried hooking up a sony digital camera on the harness then plugging it in to the nav unit and everything works great...so i figured maybe there's something wrong with my rca cable for the rear view camera or the rear view camera itself....but i tried to plug it in to a tv and the rear view camera works fine as well, even with the same rca cable i use to plug it in to the harness....i'm so confused with this.

are there compatibility issues with rca cables??? it's weird how the harness works and the rear view camera works but when you put the 2 together it's all messed up.

I had an issue only using 2 pins for the backup camera when hooking it up to the nav.

Pin 3 was the video and pin 5 AND 6 hook up to the ground of the RCA cable. Did that and boom, reverse camera working. Now I need to remove my bumper to run the wire to the license plate where I want the camera mounted

I wonder how much that is? But it will still need 12v wire wont it? Unless it's battery powered? You have a link?

But really its not hard to run a couple wires from the back to the front.

Did you use a computer speaker cable to a RCA cable? It looks like that how that guy made his. Just wondering on how you did it.
