Backup Camera
Backup Camera
Has anyone successfully installed a backup camera on their Crossfire? I tried to install the Pyle 3.5" one today by wiring it up to the reverse lights and it won't come on when the car goes in reverse. I tested the wiring using a voltmeter and the wiring is getting power, but the camera doesn't turn on. I'm hoping I didn't get a bad unit.

Is this the right method?
