Thank you! So after all there is no need to replace the tailgate wiring loom as I can see. You literally saved my day as I bought the camera and the sync connector and even voltage regulator but I’m missing the original wiring loom containing the video cable .
Great video Gary come on very well!!
Sehr gute Leitung!👍 Ich hab meine Kamera eingebaut nach ihre Video. Hat super geklappt!👍👍👍
Not too sure what your saying but I see a thumbs up lol 👍
Nice installation you’ve obviously got the know how and tools ,I’ve got a 2017 Mk3 Ford Focus Looking at adding a Reversing Camera and hardwiring it to the factory LCD display but will
Get it done by an Auto Electrician .
It’s the same basically in terms of wiring and installation. You will have a synch 3 and the wiring and camera that I used would work in the focus 👌 if your anywhere near Dorset I could do it for you 🤷♀️
I recently bought a ford galaxy from 2016, it has a lot of good stuff but not this (and I want it, mostly to be sure about children/animals behind the car)...it looks like some work, but it will be worth it. Thanks for uploading this!! And wow, it looks like I could get everything done with my time + 50/60 euros!
To be honest it’s not to bad! Good luck with the install 👌

Did the car logo on screen work i.e shows the distant lines and also do the colured lines follow your turning.
Many thanks
Thank you a lot, great video!
My PDC stopped beeping after installing the camera. Is it possible to turn it back on?
I did everything and rear camera dont show. Do you may know what is problem ?
Thank you. Just did this on a 2013 Escape. The second digit needed to be changed to a "2" instead of a "B". I dont know if a B would work for my car, but there are several threads that suggest the "2", so I tried that first and it worked. My second digit was originally a "1". Thought this info might help someone
what would be the number for smax? 2017 make
Go to the APIM As-Built
2- Do a backup of your original APIM (just in case)
3- Change block 7D0-01-01 ×*xx-xxxx-xxxx
*=3 With camera no PDC
*=9 No camera with PDC
*=B With camera and PDC
This may or may not work for the smax
3 worked for me, instead of 9 - 2016 kuga
Hi. I've seen others solder the red cable that is connected to the rca that goes to the stereo. Does the red cable need to be connected or just the yellow rca? Thank you
I never connected it not needed
Hello Gary. I have a65 plate mk 5 Mondeo 1.5 tdci econetic with Sync 2. Is there an easy way to check whether the head unit is 'camera ready' with the necessary software already installed. Having said that, there is no on screen prompt when I select reverse
If it’s sync 2 it’s just needs activation via forscan
Hello. I have a question,on rca cable on front end cable while use extenzion while not connect yellow to yellow connector and where connect red line on rca also in front side?
Sorry missed this comment, I had to use the extension as it was just a bit too short. You can purchase longer leads on eBay and the like but for me it was just too tight and I didn’t want it stretched like that
Thanks for the video, i purchased same camera. Can i ask what u did with the red wires on either end of the aux lead to head unit. Do u know what they are for?
Think there if you wanted a switched live! There not needed in this case👍
Great video but where did you get your white Ford emblem badge from on tailgate door from and have you got front one to match
I think it was skr graphics and im kit too sure if they still sale them. But I do have a front grill and steering wheel one to match!
Top video this mate! Quick question, did you pull the fuse to make it safer to work with or is it something for programming?
Just because I was putting the new lead in that’s all👍 so safety I guess, I never lost any settings either 👌
I've got a reverse camera off ebay to just clip in place of a std number plate with combined led light. Only problem is mine is a Mk1 with twin tailgate so much more difficult to run the wires which I'm still trying to figure :)
I did look at that type of camera but preferred the more oem look! Good luck I’ve got no clue with the mk1
well watched your video on this installation and recommended parts. so fingers crossed all goes well. I've ordered through your links, hopefully you get some kudos for this? What about a video on FORSCAN, installation to windows and settings as they are prompted during install, then using dongle from tunnelrat electronics to enable connection of vehicle electronics. thanlk you.
I’m about to go to Cornwall for a week camping so won’t be able to do one prior to that as I work full time. No the links are just to help out I gain or get nothing 🥴 if you need further help and your not a member already and on Facebook join ford kuga owners club uk I’m an admin there and could help you out that way also 👍
Hi All, I have installed a rear-view camera on my 2015 Ford CMax with Sync2 (My touch) The camera works but I am getting interference in the top of the screen. I have tried 3 different cameras, rerun the cable from the back to the front and also installed a noise filter on the power cable but its still doing it. The video also rolls sometime. Has anyone else had this problem and if so did you manage to get a fix for it.
Thanks
Mine does this sometimes I’ve just learned to live with it!
Thanks for the video, do you know if this would work with a 2019 Ford Kuga?
Yes mate 2019 is a mk2.5 with sync3 and will be the same 👍
Don’t forget to like share and subscribe 🙏👍
I do appologise for the question but I really am not good at these things. I have as fairly low millage used focus MK4 2019 with sync 3.2. Has identical camera (at least visually). It was installed by the previous owner who kindly also fitted immobiliser (himself or at a garage but all aftermarket). I would love to update the Sync to 3.4. But my concern is - will my aftermarket reversing camera work after the update!? Will there be compatiblity issue etc and need to find Forscan and go adjust the settings with it or just smooth transition? Gary, what do you think and have you done an update? Can I do the automatic update without fear for my camera?
In my opinion you will be fine, go for it 👍
Wow. Didn't know this was possible
Some guys on eBay charge £300 to do this 😬
@@garywilkostube3435 😂
@@garywilkostube3435 you should make a Video on adding car play / android auto to the sync 2, that's something I wanted to do for years now
Think that can only be done on the sync 3 or I would have done it 👍was thinking ofupgrading to sync 3 but that’s like £400 😳
@@garywilkostube3435 I seen some sort of firmware upgrade on ebay for like £100, but I don't know 😕
Hi, the wiring harness link doesnt work. I've found a different one on Ebay. For Ford 54-Pin SYNC 2 or SYNC 3 with RCA Rearview Camera Adapter Cable Harness
Can be that good too?
Thanks
Hi I posted the video sometime ago mate but by your description the lead you found sounds like it will be compatible- cheers
@@garywilkostube3435 thanks
Hi do you still get the lines to bend when turning?
Thanks
This camera doesn’t have dynamic lines when parking, I could have spent another fiver on one that did but to be honest I wasn’t that fussed 😁
Oh ok, does the night vision work?
It’s very vague on the RCA connection to the of screen connection block🤨
Hi, did you connect the red wire at the front of the car
Only just seen this and no I didn’t
Does this have black and white night vision? Or does it have a light on it? Or neither? Its just the box yours came in looks like it has led lights around the circumference but the link you have put doesnt mention this at all.
Thanks
I just checked the link and it says it has night vision! To be honest I’ve never reversed it in the dark! Maybe I’ll wait until later and try it! Like I said in one of my other comments to you this is a cheap camera and does what it says on the tin 😁 if you want an all singing version just spend a few more quid and get the camera that works for you 👌
@@garywilkostube3435 that would be helpful if you dont mind, to be honest they all look the same on ebay, at least with yours i have something to use as a expectation.
Ok I’ll have a look later 👍although I have led reverse and number plate lights 🤣
@@garywilkostube3435 haha yeah thats fine thanks
Also 1 last question i promise, i see you connecting the earth and feed to the reverse lamp, but i see there was a small thin red wire at the front maybe a trigger wire, i assume you left that disconnected?
Can't you use a switch or cigarette lighter to get power, saving all that hassle taking things apart? Im sure a cigarette lighter lead somewhere has a switch on it.
The trim has to come off to run the camera lead from above the number plate into the car, taking the live from the reverse light isn’t a big deal! Plus when the car is in reverse the camera is activated
It's recommended by forscan
Hello. I did everything you did but my camera not working. Can you please help me ?
Did u code it in properly with forscan? What live feed have you used? Where’s it earthed? Have you blown a fuse? These are maybe some possibilities
Can I do this on my Ford kuga 2019 When he has got parking sensors all round and parking assist
Yup exactly what mine in the video has got 👍
Thank you for your help
I will send you a video once I’ve done it
No worries if ya get stuck just shout 👍
Green cable is reverse yeah. I’m planning to cable lock together ?
Best to use a multi meter mate, in the end I took the live and earth of the reverse light and had no issues with it 👍
Im having Sync 2 system, how can i change to sync 3
It can be done but you need a complete new unit from another car plus the usb cable and gps unit! Around £400…… if I decide to upgrade mine I will do a video
Wirless harness link not working also how is camara holding up
It’s still working but gets some interference at top of the screen! I suppose it’s ok for the money but I may change it for a more expensive one in the future 👌
@@garywilkostube3435 least u got wires in place be alot easier just to replace cameras u cud try order various ones and send back the ones that are not good
You got a link for the camera?
Yea sure I’ll up a link to camera and wiring harness in description
Is a subscription to forscan needed to perform programming. Cheers
You can get a free trial for two months which gives you full access
Thanks for the video , l got it working ✅
Glad you got it sorted 👍
Very good video however I would not have the confidence to do it myself , nor any male friends to assist. If I bought one , could you fit mine and I’ll pay you. I’m being a damsel in distress😢 x
I live in Dorset so if your close then yup no problem
Thank you, but unfortunately the video is not clear 😇
