Yes in the trunk on the left hand side there is a big plastic tube with wires in it. Look in there for a orange wire splice to insulation off that and wrap your purple wire around that. Than wrap it with electrical tape. You should be good to go. Also that red wire that is built in on the yellow wire do not worry about connecting that one. I have no idea what it is for and why it is there is beyond me. The red wire you hook up your power to should be switched not constant.

Thanks for the quick response.

Is it orange wire in all cars? Remember the car is not 350/370z

bigaudiofanat · 09-04-2009, 09:50 PM

rajgopal · 09-04-2009, 09:52 PM

bigaudiofanat · 09-04-2009, 09:59 PM

I am not sure off the top of my head have not done one in that car. Will have to get back to you. Sorry for that. I am looking around for it as you read this.

Thank you-

Fyi...purple/white is not connected anywhere now- on DNX6140, if I press and hold Nav, camera comes on, and when I shift to reverse, the picture goes away.

Where do you have your green wire connected? Is it connected to ground? If not ground that green wire.

The JVC head unit he had did not work. Luckily I had a extra nice alpine head unit laying around sold it to him for a good price. IT HAS POWER

Sub all done

Hmm than it should let you see the video from the camera. Or it might be waiting for a signal from that reverse wire. But I am not sure. So you are sure the revers purple wire is not hooked up to anything? Also do you know how to use a volt meter? He is what I am thinking you should do. Go to your tail lights look at the owners manual on how to replace a backup light bulb. Take the light bulb fixture out and look at the wires. One of them has to be +. Find out which one by using the volt meter or just trying them one by one with the purple wire. Once you have found which one it is. Find it in one of the other areas and tap into it. I think you should be able to find it that way.

Everything works fine now...connected red wire from camera to red on HU, purple/white from HU to red/black (at back up bulb) and left red/black from camera unconnected...I was trying to connect it somewhere all this time.

Your advice definitely helped...thank you very much.

bigaudiofanat · 09-06-2009, 10:18 PM

No problem man. I am glad that it worked out for you. Props for getting it done right.
