Hi all. Just installed a no name DVD player in the Stilo. Fitted and wired up a rear view camera that I want to come on when I put the car in reverse. It will come on when the car is put into reverse, but not automatically. I have to select camera in the head unit menu. There is a pink wire that comes out of the unit labelled rear view, but it doesn't carry a voltage, either with the ignition on or off. It's wired currently at the back to the reverse light and a wireless receiver and at the front to the ignition wire (I wired it so that the stereo comes on with the ignition) from the wireless transmitter.

Has anyone fitted a camera like this and got it to work, or can anyone give me any clues?

Thanks in advance.
 
Pink wire possibly needs wiring in to reversing lights??

There may be no power from the unit....maybe for power input to trigger the reversing camera?
 
Thanks for the reply, I'm going to give it another go later. The bloomin thing isn't gonna beat me.
