2018 Freedom Elite Back-up Camera

[Chrisutt]

Hey guys. I have an '18 Freedom Elite with the Axxera radio/head unit, presently the back-up cam comes on automatically when in reverse. I have a button on the screen to turn the camera on full time like a rear view mirror, but it doesn't look like the camera's connected to the radio properly to do this. Anybody ever got behind that head unit to change the wiring so that you can leave the camera on while driving? It looks like there's a plug on the back for the camera, maybe, to do this? Thanks for any tips!

If it works in reverse it isn't a problem to the radio. It's the radio itself.

The BU camera is always on.

Reverse sends a trigger signal to the radio to display the camera.

The Mode button on the radio does that same thing as the reverse trigger except it's all internal.

Good excuse to get a new one...
