Wire / plug colour for reverse camera

**barkfast** · 1st March 2025, 04:56 PM

We've got a 2015 SDV6 with a Bosch / Meridan system.

I'm halfway through a headunit upgrade (using Aerpro components), and wanted to what wire should be connected to the reverse camera input?

I think the correct wire is brown with a pink Fakra style plug (there's also a brown wire with a grey plug)

In ended finding electrical diagrams for our Disco (albiet in Italian). The reverse camera ended up being the black cable with a maroon plug. The brown cables are related to a TV system / additional screens.

I used the Aerpro install kit / CALR06 infotainment adapter. The instructions were woeful and I discovered an undocumented feature with the infotainment adapter. Dipswitch 4 isnt supposed to be used, but with it set to On .. it locks the infoadapter (wasnt overly impressed given the cost).

There's alot of wiring and components behind the headunit - so definately recommend a unit with a short chassis. I used a Kenwood DMX8521S.

Not a cheap or easy undertaking but its worth it
