Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi, Does anyone know where the easiest place is to pick up a 12V reverse signal wire for connection to a Kenwood sat nav unit?

POST 2Original post

Under the driver's seat, a blue/black wire I believe. There's a great discussion on this topic at Rennlist.org.

POST 4Original post

you can just ground it, that's what the becker nav likes-

POST 5Original post

The reverse wire is for the nav computer to calculate travel time etc. It compensates for stopping and reversing to help plot your guidence system. It needs signal such as reverse light. The parking brake wire triggers the video display to come on or turn off. It is illegal for the video to be on when you are moving. So it grounds when the parking brake is pulled, and then the video will turn on. SOME guys ground it perminately so the video will always be avaliable.
