How to Route the Wiring for a Rearview Camera?
1 Answers
Rearview camera wiring installation method: 1. Route the power cable of the recorder to the vehicle, and lead the camera cable from the rear seat to the rear of the vehicle. 2. Use a screwdriver to remove the plastic panel of the car's trunk. 3. Choose a suitable position to fix the rear camera, and connect the camera's wiring to the positive terminal of the taillight. 4. During the connection process, try to use concealed wiring as much as possible, avoiding exposed wiring to prevent inconvenience during vehicle use. Precautions: 1. Do not route wiring through areas with airbags to avoid affecting airbag deployment or causing injury from high-speed airbag ejection. 2. Tuck the wiring along the upper edge of the windshield into the interior panel on the outside of the A-pillar, then route it downward through the sealing strip on the side of the dashboard to the cigarette lighter under the glove box, or along the lower edge of the door frame to the rear seats or trunk. Any excess wiring should be coiled and secured. 3. You can follow your intended wiring route with a string to determine the required length of the power cable. Generally, manufacturers provide several options or offer original cables of different lengths. 4. Start routing the wiring from the device end, which allows you to leave excess wiring at the other end for easier securing and concealment. However, avoid routing the wiring across the sliding tracks of the seats, as this may lead to damage when adjusting the seats.
