Need a walk thru for splicing factory camera into new radio

Well, I pulled the rest of them and I dont see a reverse signal wire in any of them. Unless the Maestro module can pickup the reverse signal through MS-CAN, translate it then pushes it back out into a single wire.

Intriguing to say the least

Did you ever figure out what wire to splice the reverse wire to? I plan on doing this install soon and was curious.

I'm installing a maestro unit and using the corresponding f01 wire harness. It appears that the f01 has a reverse line that ties into the stereo harness. Does that mean I don't have to worry about splicing into the reverse line behind the glovebox?View attachment 65460 View attachment 65461

It seems that the Maestro Box (Module) is reading the CANBUS messages to detect when the vehicle is the reverse gear; then generates a signal that is sent to the Head Unit thru the Purple/white wire. (You circled it in red above)

Short Answer is No. If you follow the Maestro installation instructions you DON'T need to locate and splice directly into a reverse signal wire.

Impressive knowledge base here!

Just follow the Maestro instructions. That's what you paid $200 for the interface for.
