Where do you place the red wire of an aftermarket rearview camera?

Model: (Various brands) Various

Video tutorial

When deciding to install an aftermarket rearview camera on a car that does not come standard with one, we must have some knowledge of electronics, as these devices are rarely plug & play, and navigating through the various wire connections may not be within everyone's reach.

The YouTuber gives us a suggestion regarding the question: where does the red wire go? We would have already connected the red and black wire to the reverse light.

If we have a reverse-count connector with a wire that splits, we can connect it to the orange cable, otherwise we must look for the pink wire - which is the back wire - that goes from the CANBUS to the radio connector. Usually this wire does not have a third connection wire, so we must connect it to the connecting PIN. And it will work.

How to Remove the Rear Seat of a Hyundai Tucson?

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
