Setup and Installation
The Yakry Y25 system is designed for effortless installation, typically completed within 30 minutes. Follow these steps for proper setup:

The camera should be mounted near your vehicle's license plate. It requires power from an existing light source, such as the taillight wire for your backup lights. This ensures the camera powers on automatically when you shift into reverse. Confirm the correct color and polarity of the reverse light wire before making the connection.

Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your Yakry Y25 system, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| No image on monitor | Monitor not powered; Camera not powered; Loose connection; Signal interference. | Ensure cigarette lighter adapter is fully inserted and turned on. Check camera power connection to taillight. Verify all cables are securely connected. Reduce potential sources of wireless interference. |
| Image flickering or unstable | Weak wireless signal; Electrical interference; Low vehicle battery voltage. | Ensure camera and monitor antennas are unobstructed. Check for strong electrical interference from other vehicle components. Consider installing a 12-volt DC rectifier for stable camera voltage if issues persist. |
| Delay in image display | System initialization; Wireless pairing time. | A slight delay (1-2 seconds) is normal for the system to power up and establish a connection. Be patient before initiating movement. |
| Incorrect image orientation | Image flip setting is incorrect. | Access the monitor menu and adjust the "Image Flip" setting to the desired orientation (Normal, Mirror, Inverted Front, Inverted Mirror). |
