Oh man i've been doing some reading to figure this out.
If someone can help answer a few Q's please. I have everything connected to the tv tuner and have a white wire coming out saying 'camera +12v'. I have splice yellow/white and brown in the trunk hatch. So i have a yellow/white and a brown from the car I have a white from the tuner wiring I have a red and a black coming out from the back of the camera - i dont know where these go. Is purple pink the wire for the reverse lights or is it the yellow white? I think I need a relay - what does it do? This is where I am stuck, I dont know what to attach to what to make it all work. I read THIS POST and I think I am pretty close to finishing the whole job with a little help from you guys. Please help Dubs

hello there, mate!!!
have you looked at this post too? http://www.xoutpost.com/electronics/...-problems.html first, lets see, what equipment you have: you mentioned a TV module.. is it an Original BMW analog or analog/digital (hybrid) TV Tuner module? Do you have a factory Navigation system? you did not list the year and model of your car, so I would assume that you have an E53 with navigation - please confirm...  Are you able to snap some pictures of your equipment and post them? The color of wires inside the car may not be as relevant, as the colors of the wire maybe different from country to country, from year to year... If you have patience, we will get this thing up and running for you... Last edited by TerminatorX5; 09-10-2012 at 08:18 AM. Reason: spelling

Thanks for the feedback, i have especially read THIS POST carefully and I am trying to make sense of things, me not having an electrical understanding or background does not help me, but i'm keen to learn and try.
I'll see what I can manage thanks Dubs

Mate,
I looked at the harness that you have bought from the ebay and I am not so sure it is the actual harness to connect the rear camera - this harness has one yellow RCA plug, normally yellow is reserved for video, one white and one red RCA plugs, they are normally reseerved for stereo audio and the OE TV module does NOT have STEREO audio, it is only MONO, and then you have a black plug, which might be for the reverse camera. I am not saying that it will not work, it might - please, when you take pictures of this wire loom, make sure that the labels are clearly visible. Even then, there is no guarantee that the maker of this loom has connected the correct wires to the correct pins - the OE tuner has Audio/Video IN, which is 2 cables/4 wires, and it also has Audio/Video OUT which is 2 cables/4 wires, it also has Reverse camera IN, which is 1 cable/2 wires and it has a trigger wire that comes from a different plug - only a single wire. So, for the rear camera to function properly, you will need to have a camera, that should have 2 wires for the power (+) and (-), and 2 wires/1 cable for the video OUT, and then you need to utilize the rear camera input on the TV module, 1 cable/2 wires for rear camera IN, and the trigger wire that needs to be grounded when the car is in reverse gear. Usually folks are making their own wiring/cabling, but lets work with what you already have purchased - since I can't fly down under to take a look at your stuff, do the pictures, and we will take it from there... ciao, mate...

He has the correct harness, i have the same one in my car and it works, hence why i asked him to read my previous posts carefully ...... but he can buy the same thing for cheaper from ECS or other places.

Hi guys being a one car family time is tight, I finally got some pics.
I have re read posts, especially post 50 and it is making a little more sense. Mine is are similar to Termiantor's wiring i think. I only have 2 wires leaving the unit, the whit one and the camera IN plug. If anyone has the time to guide me or point to a post or 2 I'd appreciate it. I have no idea what the back and white plugs are from the wiring loom, Can someone tell me how I can use them too? Thanks Dubs
