    29 = + cam
    30 = - cam
    27 = + video cable
    28 = - video cable

    I didnt use 29 and 30, i used power from the reversing light

    Wouldn't it be easier to put everything on a switch instead of steering diode.
    Double pole double throw. One pole is B+ (no steering diode need) the other pole is bu cam or iPod video

    I am ready to tackle this mod but I am confused on which wires to connect to the micro dpdt switch contacts.
    Not very good at reading wiring diagrams.
    Here is my little illustration on what I am trying to accomplish.

    Which cable to be connected, so MFD will cut and display the connection from 29/30? Is there a switch needed?

    Would you mind sharing me how to connect an RCA video cable to the MFD using 27/28?

    It's been a long time so I don't remember exactly how I did it. I do know I used a mechanical switch to switch on the backup camera display which shows the PC screen on the MFD. Good luck!
