Connection

Connection of the 54pin PNP adapter cable

• As the reverse gear light’s power supply isn’t
• Voltage stable all the time, an ordinary open relay (e.g. AC-RW-1230 with wiring AC-RS5) or filter (e.g. AC-PNF-RVC) is required.
• The diagram below shows the connection type of the relay.

1. Disconnect the female 54-pin connector of the factory harness at the rear side of the APIM module and connect it to the male 54-pin connector of the enclosed adapter cable.
2. Connect the opposite female 54-pin connector of the enclosed adapter cable to the previously free male 54-pin connector of the Apim module.
3. Connect the white female Cinch connector of the enclosed 54pin adapter cable to the male Cinch connector of the rear-view camera
4. Connect the Reverse light’s power-cable to the coil (85) and the vehicle’s ground to the coil (86) of the relay.
5. Connect the output connector (87) of the relay to the rear-view camera’s power-cable.
6. Connect permanent power+12V to the relay’s input connector (30).
