I have a 2012 toyota camry le, this will work with it, been needing a backup camera but one that looks more official would be awesome
I appreciate your effort
Thanks for this. You confirmed what I suspected on my install. Camera needs power before getting to the screen after the startup screen, else, it doesn’t display the camera image.
Does it work now
You are welcome
Why you did'nt use the yellow wire provided by the harness as the supply of the camera?
thank you
You are welcome. It took me 2 months almost
As you are taking the power from radio, will the camera video always show in the stereo screen? How can I switch between other stereo functions and back camera in the screen if I don’t connect camera with reverse light?
You can take the power anywhere else. It doesn’t have to do with reverse light. When you power the camera from somewhere, and the camera sends the signal to the system that there is camera and it will work. Otherwise, it is not going to recognize. Think about old computers, if you don’t plug it when you turn it on, it is not going to recognize and you have to restart it. It has the same system.
Hi Folks!
This short message is about mistakes that can be made during installation of backup camera GreenYi HD720 on your car.
The booklet with instruction from manufacturer has two wiring diagrams, and none of them is correct when we talk about Camry 2012 Basic (also 2013 and maybe 2014).
First of, the Camry uses + 6 volts for triggering and feeding their original camera (that's what I was told by the seller of harness) , and this makes potentially harmful for your car using +12 volt for triggering and feeding aftermarket cameras such as GreenYi HD720.
More expensive models of Camri have a special connector for feeding their original camera, but since Basic model has no such connector, there is no reason to buy the original camera and pay for it triple price compare to GreenYi HD720.
The second point is that the Camry DOES NOT require triggering for correct work AT ALL!
At the very moment when you turn the gear to REVERSE position, the system tries to catch video signal and if it's detected it will be translated to the display right away.
If system does not recognize the video signal, the screen stays the same.
When you turn the gear to any other position like Parking or Neutral, system blocks video and return previous screen to display. As simple as that.
So you can easily forget about triggering wires and leave them alone.
But you do need to get additional single wire for getting +12 volts from other spot. It has to be just about same length as video cable. The size should be 18-20 AWG, copper is preferable.
The camera suppose to work all the time because the time of detecting video signal is very short and camera has a delay between applying the voltage and getting itself into full working mod.
For this reason you cannot use reverse light wires for getting +12 volts from them, it's just not going to work.
You have to use additional cable and get voltage either from cigarette lighter, or from fuse box or from another connector on the radio which has +12v wire. I have used the last option (grey colored wire from the last connector on the right side of the radio, if you look in front of display).
I've attached the ground (black) wire from camera to the frame. Everything works flawlessly now.
That's all what I'd like to say. Good luck with installation! :)
Will a dynamic camera work? Is it going to be the same set up?
It can work but it doesn’t move.
Hello Stem Activities, can you link where to buy all the part to connect the camera please ?

You don’t have to buy the exact things but this will work
My 2013 camry LE - back camera suddenly stop working any idea what could be the issue? The display in the desk is working fine but now when i place reverse gear the camera didnt start at all. Any suggestion would appreciate. Thank you in advance.
There will be a shortcut or your camera needs to be replaced
Hi Stem, question, I used to connect my camera to the reversing light, then the camera will shut off automatically, when it's not in R position. But you've connected the camera to head unit, is that mean the camera will always get power and always on? Camera always on will die faster? thanks.
Why did you change it from reverse light? If it is working fine with the reverse light, you don’t need to change it.
@@Techgeniusideas there is no video footage on head unit when using the reverse light video, but using this way to connect an external monitor is OK. When camera is always on using your method, head unit receives video footage. Sounds very strange.
Thanks for the video. I currently have the camera installed and it only works if I put the car in reverse before the radio turns on. Can you explain what I need to change in order to fix it? Is it a simple fix? Thank you :)
It is the same logic. You need to get the electricity whenever the car starts immediately.
I did another video because the subscribers were asking different questions. Let me know if you have any other questions

Quick question about wiring which i'm sure you've answered a million times by now. The camera has an two female connections, RCA and power. Also it comes with an RCA and power cable but what i'm confused about is; I wire the power cable for the camera with the red wire on the RCA cable too? I can ground the black wire from the power supply care to any ground. Essentially there is 1 power source (from the radio) going to both the RCA red cable AND the power cable, right?
No problem. There are two connections you need to do. First, Power for the camera, you can get that from the fuse box or from the radio but you don’t have to use the radio power. You can get the negative from any metal part of the car. Sometimes red wire with comes with RCA cable.
Red wire for +, the ground is -. Connect the camera to the radio. That is it.
@@Techgeniusideas I understand, when you mention "sometimes the red wire comes with RCA cable". My RCA cable came with red wire, do I need that one at all?
oh got it. That is the only red wire with RCA for the positive you can use it for the camera. You don't need anything else because you can get the negative everywhere.
connect the power to reverse gear?
That is not working like that. Whenever the car starts, the camera needs electric to turn on the camera then the radio recognizes the camera then it will start working
Is this work for my Camry le 2012
Yes sir.
Hello I have Toyota Camry 2012 I installed backup camera but when I put it into R the back up camera doesn’t work but sometimes it does
There will be shortcut or the wire connection is not good.
Hi how are you doing I have 2013 Camry I installed the same backup camera but when I do reverse nothing change on the radio screen I don’t know what could be the problem
I am great. What exactly did you do? I need to know what you did step by step
Can you put the gear when you turn on the car?
Hi. Thank you for the video. Everything work out for my toyota camry 2012 Le. But there is a problem that my camera always on even I unplug the key. Is there a way to turn the cam off? Otherwise my battery will dead soon.
Take the energy source from the fusebox under the dashboard. That way, it will not drain your battery
Thank you for the reply. So instead of taking the power source from the blue wire connect to the red wire. Now I have to run another wire from the fusebox and connect to the red wire. Is that right? Sry I know nothing about car.
Camera needs power and you can get the power from the fuse box. All the fuses are 12v. When you turn off your camera, it will turn off the camera too.
@@Techgeniusideas Thank you so much. It is working now. Key off cam off. Key on cam on.👍
I did it like you said, but my camera only works for a moment maybe two minutes, what could it be ???
Thanks in advance.
Proplem can be anything. How did you exactly wire it?

Can u help me install my back up camera
Did you try this th-cam.com/video/LViyX9RICZE/w-d-xo.html
Does that mean the camera is powered directly from the radio and will always work no matter which transmission?
That is correct
@@Techgeniusideas thanks for your reply, actually after installation follows your instruction, the backup camera is always on even I unplug my key and leave the car. I am afraid it would kill the battery...
That is very strange. The radio is not supposed to be on to see the camera when you turn off the car. You can take the + and - from any fuse in the fuse box.
I have a Toyota Camry 2013 SE. It came with a backup camera when I bought it from the dealership.
( back in 2013). Last week it just stopped working. I put the car in reverse and my screen does not change to the camera. Does anyone know why and how I go about fixing this?
There could be shortcut somewhere. If you don't see the camera, probably camera is not getting the electricity or your camera is not working.

Hello everyone
Hi could you help me with connections please

Abicim bana yardim et ben bilmiyorum na yapacagim
Ok how do I help you
@@Techgeniusideas
I am gonna call you thru social media because today.
1) I did as you following the instructions then now my usb and audio-player doesn’t work, what could be reason for this?
No way. That is very strange. I basically put everything in the video. What are you doing exactly?
AssalamoAlikum hi I just did all the wiring connect from the reverse light but not working wondering
Wa ʿalaykumu s-salam (وَعَلَيْكُمُ ٱلسَّلَامُ)
There are some questions where did you get the positive and ground wire?
If you're getting it from the reverse, that's not a good idea for some cars
@@Techgeniusideas yes brother the 2 wires I just leave that you said in the video but I see you make the diagram i follow that but the 2 wires you discuss you didn’t connect & my car camra is 6 volt if you show me how is those wires connecte & where thanks
I bought those pause wire you show the other video but I m campuse where for that
My memory is fuzzy because it's been 30 years since I've touched a car stereo harness. If I remember correctly, the blue and yellow is the continuous power line that draws from battery. I think you probably should connect the camera power to the grey wire (Toyota's ignition controlled powerline), or else the camera will always be powered on, even after your ignition is off.
You are right but there is no light on the camera. Do you think it is going to drain the battery also like that. It is a simple camera
Please let me know
Hi what was the problem you had here? I tried what you did and connected the red wire to the positive and it burned the wire lol. So what i did is i connected the red wire to the harness extra red wire and it worked. My only concern is that everytime i try to use my rearview nameplate camera, i have to put it in reverse while the radio is showing the Toyota logo, if not the camera won't work. Hope you can read this and reply back. Thanks!
Btw i have a 2012 camry se, and i connected the backlight red wire to the red wires that came with the yellow connector and red/black power connector.
(My problem is that when i turn the Reverse gear after Toyota logo is gone from the radio, the backup camera wouldn't work. So after turning the engine on, i have 5 seconds to change gear to Reverse so the camera would work.)
:) when you connect the red wire to the harness, it is not going to work when you turn on the car if you put the rear gear after the logo. It is because during the logo time, radio scans whatever the car has as equipments, if the camera didn’t get electricity from the rear light, radio doesn’t get the signal from the camera and it thinks there is no camera and skips but when you put the rear gear, it gets the electricity from the rear light when the logo appears and the radio recognizes that there is a camera and sends signals to the radio and back up camera system works. That is how it is :)
@@Techgeniusideas thank you so much! is that fine?
I guess, I'll just have to always make sure I put it on Reverse gear within 5 sec after turning on the engine to make it work XD
