How to turn on camera using indicators

Stef · 21st August 2007, 11:59

I noticed that the original backup camera does have a very wide angle.
Actually it can be used to locate “items” that are in the blind spot between the rearview mirrors.

Using this circuit the rearview camera will turn on when using the corner indicators.
So if you go left or right using your indicators the camera will turn on
The system can be turned off using the switch.

I did not make a detailed how to but;
In this section there is a how to pdf that can be used as reference

Very good idea Stef!

What does the 220uf Capacitor do?

Charges up to cover the flashing, I guess. You don't want the camera flashing on & off. Great idea, Stef!
