Thank you so much for this video. I bought a similar HU and backup camera, and could not get it to work with the instructions provided. Your video helped me get it running!
I just wanted to go on record as saying I've watched over 30 videos on this particular radio brand alone and you were the only person that got me to the end of this project so I truly appreciate that and I hope you have a great and most enjoyable day Good Sir...
I had mine hooked up like this too but it didnt work. After some experimenting I found its the Pink wire on my unit. The one in this video is a 7012b. The one I am hooking up is a 7018b probably why it was a different wire. There are gonna be some differances between models. Going over all the info you can find, google, etc and Videos like this is still a lot easier than stumbling around with a voltmeter and a 1.5volt battery like we had to do in the bad ol days.
Thank you so much for posting this, saved me a headache with the camera wiring as my instructions had the pink wire as the reverse signal, much appreciated!
The green wire that you didn't know what it does is for illumination. If it "sees" 12v, the radio will dim to night mode. If it sees 0v, it will be max brightness. My instructions that I got in 2023 say that the pink wire is for parking sensor control. I don't know what that does.
Good job man! Don’t you love the Walmart radio instructions? I have the cam and harness in my lap, thanks for figuring out this for everyone. Weirdly enough it all makes sense
may be the orange and pink wires work the same way, when I wired up my backup camera I used the Pink wire and it works fine. that jack on the back is for a microphone, if you wanted to put a better one on it. its label on the wiring diagram in the user manual... youll need a magnifying glass to read it though.
It should be a2 on most some of them I have seen are different.it is the bottom pin and also make sure your wire to your tail lights is hooked up and is getting power because that is what powers the camera on.
I would like to ask what if i add a second camera to the front. Which wire, and which app setting do i click on to access the front camera when needed?
I got one of these off of ebay, my wire colors were somewhat different in color then yours but what attaches to the A1-A8 locations are the same. Did you find out what A6 was for? Some documentation I have found shows it as ILL which I assume is illumination when you dim you console. I was glad to find your video it helped... Thanks!!
Sir I hav done the same thing you did. But it’s only showing as reversing on top left corner, where as no display is being shown. Would you be kind enough to let me know wat the problem would be in my case? My radio tape is same as yours
Do you have the other end of the video cord wired to the positive power on the backup white light, so that it gets powered up when you put the car in reverse?
Great video. My question is what are you using the RCA red and white jacks for? For sub? If yes, Is there seperate controls for subwoofer in the stereo? Can i control my sub separately, independent from rear or front speakers?
Thank you and yes they are for my subs and the only control for them is base and treb .I have an potentiometer switch hooked to my amp via phone cable that I can control how much thump I have
Thanks for the reply. Does this have a seperate control( treble bass) for RCA output alone in the system? Or if I change treble and bass, even the front and rear speakers' bass and treble changes??
Hi there, do you know please why my unit beeps when I put the car in reverse but the image does not show up? If I change the function to aux using the second top-down button I can see the reverse camera but it does not show up automatically.
hello, i got problem with the wiring, A2 connect to CAM IN no display on screen but if connect to AV IN is ok, the problem is I have to press AV IN on screen, it won't switch to camera automatic when reverse
The reverse connection is not written as reverse on these cheap cameras they are written as Back In so whichever is that one is the one you need to connect
Jack Pepper thanks, this helped me. I was struggling with the reverse input then I read this and tried the other one with “back” and it worked like a charm🤗
I am still struggling with this. I connected back in to the red wire. But still no respose when i switch to revers. But when i put an open wire with the two,camera works!unfortunately im not yet in reverse gear.. help please
Idk if I got a short wire or what , I bought this for an 04 trailblazer that I am too to flip, and the wire does not seem to reach the back bu the license plate to mount the back up camera, any ideas ?!! Would be greatly appreciated.
You can buy longer cords and adapters that will make them longer it is 10 ft from radio to take lights on my truck and I had no problem I actually have some extra tied up have you tried routing it a different way?
fixin things and breakin things I’m routing it from the inside through the door pillar or carpet of the floor. Towards the left driver side. Once I get to the trunk it’s not enough cord. Didn’t think about buying extra didn’t want to go through the hassle. Thank you for that, I might just need to buy it though lol
fixin things and breakin things lol true, but it def is a nice little upgrade. Once i clay bar and wax the truck, she is being posted for sale lol. I’m sure I’ll sell it in 2-3 weeks time
Thank you so much for this video. I bought a similar HU and backup camera, and could not get it to work with the instructions provided. Your video helped me get it running!
Absolutlly! This is very professional introduction ! including each details, and good experience during installing !
Thank you
I also had that problem, but in the end I used pin 9 which is for the parking sensor ... and now it comes to me automatically...success

No problem glad I could help
So its not the pink wire? I was about to hook it to the pink wire
what wire did u hook up too?
Thank you so much for explaining the wiring to this Double din stereo Sir 👍
Ok video. The brown wire on your harness is for swc steering wheel control.
That aux on back is for your microphone for Bluetooth set up sir. Hands free for your calls and voicecomand if irs ever added in an update
The green wire that you didn't know what it does is for illumination. If it "sees" 12v, the radio will dim to night mode. If it sees 0v, it will be max brightness. My instructions that I got in 2023 say that the pink wire is for parking sensor control. I don't know what that does.
Good job man! Don’t you love the Walmart radio instructions? I have the cam and harness in my lap, thanks for figuring out this for everyone. Weirdly enough it all makes sense
Thank you and yes it is definitely worth the money

Cool radio
I got the same one is pretty good for the price btw I only paid 30 for mine.
Wires are label and unit has pin diagram it was easy install
It should be a2 on most some of them I have seen are different.it is the bottom pin and also make sure your wire to your tail lights is hooked up and is getting power because that is what powers the camera on.
That is for a Mike for your hands free speaker
I would like to ask what if i add a second camera to the front. Which wire, and which app setting do i click on to access the front camera when needed?
how to take it out, any screws or just need to pry side tabs ?
For 7060b it's the corner that doesn't have a wire coming out
I got one of these off of ebay, my wire colors were somewhat different in color then yours but what attaches to the A1-A8 locations are the same. Did you find out what A6 was for? Some documentation I have found shows it as ILL which I assume is illumination when you dim you console. I was glad to find your video it helped... Thanks!!
I have not went into it any further but I hope to soon
It have am radio station?
Use brake wire,pink to ground to play dvd while in motion
Thanks for the video.my instructions say one thing in English then in another language it shows the wires in different pin positions 🙄
Sir I hav done the same thing you did. But it’s only showing as reversing on top left corner, where as no display is being shown. Would you be kind enough to let me know wat the problem would be in my case? My radio tape is same as yours
I got power going to mine it lights up the buttons but screen doesn’t come on
No light or dimmer connection
But my car is Toyota Corolla 2004 you have radio tuch for him
No sorry I have yet to do a Toyota Corolla.
You can change the startup picture with code 1234 to what ever make vehicle you have
Oh cool will have to try that out thanks
fixin things and breakin things it’s in the settings. Go try it out and let me know.
Where would the code be entered
fixin things and breakin things in settings under Logo Setting.
Press the Play button on Logo Settings , press 1234 then enter and a list of auto makers will come ip
Googa is that you?
what are the position on the pins of the contant 12 volt, switch 12 volt and ground?
It's been a while i will have to pull it out and let you know
What happens if my camara doesn’t turn on at all? HELPPPPPP
Do you have the other end of the video cord wired to the positive power on the backup white light, so that it gets powered up when you put the car in reverse?
Yes make sure it’s hook up to reverse light power wire and also make sure it has a good ground
I have this same one on a 2002 ford f350 super duty. I cant get the sound to work. Plz help
Great video. My question is what are you using the RCA red and white jacks for? For sub? If yes, Is there seperate controls for subwoofer in the stereo? Can i control my sub separately, independent from rear or front speakers?
Thank you and yes they are for my subs and the only control for them is base and treb .I have an potentiometer switch hooked to my amp via phone cable that I can control how much thump I have
The subs are on a total different circuit than the front and rear speakers
Thanks for the reply. Does this have a seperate control( treble bass) for RCA output alone in the system? Or if I change treble and bass, even the front and rear speakers' bass and treble changes??
Also if you can make a video on Potentiometer switch, it would be very helpful
Yes I will do that
Did you bypass the vehicle factory amp or you addded your own amp?
No I went directly into the vehicle harness . Then ran separate wires for external amp and subs
mp5 car stereo for $55US or a android car stereo for $85 what is the difference?
Pretty much just the operating system
Hi there, do you know please why my unit beeps when I put the car in reverse but the image does not show up? If I change the function to aux using the second top-down button I can see the reverse camera but it does not show up automatically.
You do not have power ram to your camera it sounds like
Did u have any problem with ur subwoofer system
No problems at all
Hi bro.. what is connection on rca black and white wire..
Amplifier for subs
hello, i got problem with the wiring, A2 connect to CAM IN no display on screen but if connect to AV IN is ok, the problem is I have to press AV IN on screen, it won't switch to camera automatic when reverse
Look for grey wire yours may not be in a2 position
The reverse connection is not written as reverse on these cheap cameras they are written as Back In so whichever is that one is the one you need to connect
Jack Pepper thanks, this helped me. I was struggling with the reverse input then I read this and tried the other one with “back” and it worked like a charm🤗
I am still struggling with this. I connected back in to the red wire. But still no respose when i switch to revers. But when i put an open wire with the two,camera works!unfortunately im not yet in reverse gear.. help please
Edcel Rentino it may be written as back in*
Idk if I got a short wire or what , I bought this for an 04 trailblazer that I am too to flip, and the wire does not seem to reach the back bu the license plate to mount the back up camera, any ideas ?!! Would be greatly appreciated.
You can buy longer cords and adapters that will make them longer it is 10 ft from radio to take lights on my truck and I had no problem I actually have some extra tied up have you tried routing it a different way?
$17 on walmart.com for 32ft
fixin things and breakin things I’m routing it from the inside through the door pillar or carpet of the floor. Towards the left driver side. Once I get to the trunk it’s not enough cord. Didn’t think about buying extra didn’t want to go through the hassle. Thank you for that, I might just need to buy it though lol
Yes sounds like you are going to buy more lol you never know what your going to get when you buy this stuff lol
fixin things and breakin things lol true, but it def is a nice little upgrade. Once i clay bar and wax the truck, she is being posted for sale lol. I’m sure I’ll sell it in 2-3 weeks time
What is that gps at the back? Can it be put a gps antenna?
I believe that is what it it used for but I had nothing to hook up to it
mine doesnt have A2 and A3 can you help me?
What is your model number
When I turn mine on the power to all my gauge's and AC goes off and no sound any help would be appreciated
U got most likely wire something wrong
I had no sound with mine as well turns out the blue wire need to be hooked into the amp wiring harness.
