I found this to cause no problem and since that time I have fitted a reverse camera so the problem is solved anyway.
I meant to say I got everything installed correctly. It’s worked like a charm just didn’t know if it could be wired in like that. The answer is no. The reverse option isn’t really needed all that much, rarely am I backing up with a jacked up truck with a bright *** light bar behind me lol. It’s definitely a nice addition. Chrysler really went cheap by putting it only in the 04’s and excluded the other years. Probably just ran out of them in the parts bin or were just cutting corners. Who knows, they seemed to not care much for the car once they realized it wasn’t selling like they thought.
Cheers everyone and Merry Christmas 🎁🎄. Be safe out there, I’ve been seeing a lot of XF’s on the Facebook groups getting sideswiped by people.
