[QUOTE="tJKrider, post: 461757, member: 25640"] I'm trying to get my backup camera going but running into a problem. I used Jscan to activate the rear camera function in the head unit (430N RHB). I now get the check surroundings message when in reverse and have the camera settings available in the menu. I tried the camera using a 12V battery and an old RCA-fed headrest monitor I had laying around. That works as expected. When I plug the camera into the RCA/22 pin adapter in the back of the head unit I do not get any feed. Just the same black screen with check your surroundings. For completeness I tried another video feed which also shows up on the external monitor but not the head unit. It seems like one of two things: 1) Wrong pin positions in the 22pin adapter 2) A break in the wire, bad pin, etc in the 22pin adapter The camera kit I purchased included the adapter but I just ordered another from Amazon to test #2. That should arrive today and I'll try it... It seems the pin locations are consistent with other installs I found on YT. Bottom row, 2nd and 3rd pins from the end. I think they are technically pin positions 3 and 4. Is there something I'm missing?? [/QUOTE]
