5.3 Screen Flash Back and Jump to AUX Interface

Some cars may experience screen flash back and automatically jump to the AUX interface after installation. This is typically not a product issue but is caused by the wiring of the car's rear camera reversing lights low voltage series, which leads to crosstalk power.

Solution: Add a relay to prevent crosstalk power. Consult a professional installer if you are unsure how to do this.
