      @ALKUKES I have had A-sure units in the past that advertised 'F-cam' but it didn't work. If it has 'f-cam' it will need activated in the factory settings. Not sur where in the setting as these units all have different settings layouts, probably under canbus settings.

    Hi Dave, thanks for another excellent video. I have just installed a reversing and forward camera. For the forward camera I used the reversing camera off my old Passat which the previous owner had installed. It all looks great and works in the same way as yours (front camera comes on for ten seconds after coming out of reverse). I have an Eonon Q35 Pro unit. The only thing I can't figure out is how to turn of the trajectory lines on the forward camera. Not sure if I left an extra wire connected to power the lines? Any ideas please?

    • @whatsdavedone104
      @whatsdavedone104  Год назад +2

      Unfortunately reverse cameras have the lines built in to the camera, no way to turn them off. On some cheap reverse cameras they have a wire loop that can be cut to disable the lines.

    • @chrisbarrett1950
      @chrisbarrett1950 Год назад +1

      That's what I thought. Thanks for replying. Now the wiring is in place I may replace the camera at some point. Thank you for all your help and thanks for all the excellent videos!@@whatsdavedone104

      Hi Dave
      Appreciate your videos, followed your installation guide and my reverse camera works perfect with my eonon q53pro headunit.
      Now with the front camera installation ; kindly let me me know where to connect the red pigtail wire [power ] . thus behind the head unit.

      @whatsdavedone104  Год назад

      I have no pigtail connected to back of headunit....only connects are black to ground, red 12v to fuse 4 in cabin fuse box and yellow rca to back of unit....have you activated front camera? Think I have it in 1 of my other videos

    Hey there, i ordered vwa12s-6g after watching your videos which comes with a rear camera as a gift for black Friday. I am going to install it around christmas. Since i already ordered the rear emblem camera i was thinking about installing the eonon camera as a front camera attached to the front grill of my eos (although i am really thinking of buying the same camera you have here). Now about the wiring, do you connect the reverse signal cable of the front camera to the back of the head unit along with the reversing camera?

    • @whatsdavedone104
      @whatsdavedone104  Год назад

      My front camera is getting power from fuse 4 in cabin fuse box, not connected to the back of the headunit.

      @zahariaradu3144 does the unit have 3 yellow RCAs or just 2?
      Should have reverse cam, front cam and AVin.....is your front camera plugged into front cam or AVin?

    • @zahariaradu3144
      @zahariaradu3144 11 месяцев назад +1

      I have three yellow plugs. 1 is connected to the rear camera, 1 is to the front camera (cvbs). And one with video output.

    • @whatsdavedone104
      @whatsdavedone104  11 месяцев назад

      So front camera is plugged into cvbs yeah? When you come out of reverse is the front cam activated in the settings?
      On some of these units "fcam" refers to a dash cam and not a front camera like you have installed.
