Testing Procedure
Perform a quick test before installation to ensure the device is working normally. This helps identify issues before permanent installation.
Step 1: Test Car Stereo
Combine the red and yellow wires of the car stereo and connect them to the positive pole of the battery. Connect the black wire to the negative pole of the battery. After approximately 2 seconds, check if the car stereo screen lights up. If it does, the car stereo is functioning correctly.
Step 2: Test Rear View Camera
While maintaining the Step 1 connections, connect the pink wire to the top red wire of the rear view camera. Combine the middle red wire and the bottom red wire of the rear view camera and connect them to the positive battery connection (where the red and yellow wires were connected). Connect the black wire of the rear view camera to the negative battery connection. If the camera lights up and the car stereo displays the reverse image, the rear view camera is functioning properly.
Installation
After completing the test steps, the car stereo is ready for installation in your car.
