Just installed mine! Used the Autofocus tech harness and spliced into the original harness. Much easier to remove the plug from the quadlock,gives you more space to splice wires in.

Also,my camera has the mini connector but it was nowhere near long enough to be fed through the rubber trunk hose. I ended up cutting the long rca harness, fishing it, and re connected. Fishing was very easy, I used a long piece of metal coat hanger, with wiring taped at the front tip, with electrical tape, covering to make sure the coat hanger didn't rip anything. I sprayed some lithium grease on my fingers and rubbed it along the wire and coat hanger.

Thanks to the instructions by the OP and Grzes' wiring diagram, as the "green" and "brown" wires on my emulator were orange with yellow and blue stripes. My emulator did come with the white wire, exactly like the OP's.

I followed the instructions to the letter and everything worked perfectly.

From what I've seen at the tail of this thread - if I get a "basic" emulator I'll lose nav, unless I go for the "navi" version? Is that correct?

I'm in the UK and can't see the "navi" version for sale anywhere except for this one on AliExpress - http://www.aliexpress.com/item/40001...chweb201603_53

Hopefully someone can advise what I should buy? Thanks.

I've fitted the camera and run all the wiring.
I've done the coding - i.e. added the $3AG to the VO codes and and changed the options as described.

But when I shift to reverse, nothing happens. I can hear the parking sensors are working, but the visual display the screen I used to get has dissapeared - let alone any kind of camera display coming up.

I've tried removing the unit but I am still not getting the display coming up, even for parking sensors.

What have I done wrong?

I've included the FSW_PSW file from my CIC.C16 module just to be on the safe side.

I am also not 100% I've changed the VO codes right. I can see from NCSExpert that $3AG is listed. I'm not 100% that I've done FA_WRITE on each.



When I query each module and check the "fa.trc" file I can see the following.

NFRM:
Code:
E91_#0311&LCSW%0A22*VS92$1CA$1CB$1CD$205$249$2BG$2PA$2XA$302$321$358$386$3AG$402$418$423$428$430$431$441$459$470$488$493$494$4AE$4AG$502$508$520$521$522$524$534$544$563$5AC$609$614$615$616$620$644$654$676$694$6AA$6AB$6FL$6NF$6NR$6VA$6VC$760$7SP$812$850$853$863$877$880$8S2$8S3$8SM-A090
CAS:
Code:
E91_#0311&LCSW%0A22*VS92$1CA$1CB$1CD$205$249$2BG$2PA$2XA$302$321$358$386$3AG$402$418$423$428$430$431$441$459$470$488$493$494$4AE$4AG$502$508$520$521$522$524$534$544$563$5AC$609$614$615$616$620$644$654$676$694$6AA$6AB$6FL$6NF$6NR$6VA$6VC$760$7SP$812$850$853$863$877$880$8S2$8S3$8SM-A090
The "plug and play" harness doesn't have a connector to power the camera, so I used a pinout posted earlier to get power.
I've not tested that's working, but I'd assume even without power I'd get a black screen or something.
I've bought another emulator, this one wasn't plug and play but does have the "white" camera power wire.

The play and play kit I had before was clearly wired up wrong.

Unfortunately, I'm still having the same problem - I get the PDC noises, but no display on the screen at all - not even the standard PDC one. I think I need to get this back before I think about the reversing camera addon.

I must have done something wrong on the coding side but I can't work it out?

If you aewnt even getting the reverse pdc/camera display, I think something may be wrong with the coding.

You mentioned you're OT sure if you did fa write to both cas and nfrm, so maybe remove it from vo, fa write to cas and nfrm, then add it back and da write to them again? Then check the cic module coding. If still not working, maybe default code cic and re code again?

If coding was done correctly, you should see the reverse screen w/ vertical pdc.

Thanks. Removed $3AG and reset all modules, and PDC display was working properly.

Added $3AG, reset all modules, PDC display still working correctly.

Modified the options as discussed in the original post - only "MACRO_L6_PARKMENU" & "PDC_DIRECTION" needed to be changed, the rest were correct as default. PDC display not working.

Could be connection issue between headunit and emulator? How did you tap it in? solder?

Crimped. I would agree the problem is likely to be the connection.

Hi, I am in process of installing an Autofocus rear camera emulator and have a basic question. The yellow RCA plug for the camera has a yellow wire and black wire. The positive wire goes to pin 21 and negative wire goes to pin 24 according to the diagram. Question, which wire is positive and which is negative? I am embarrassed asking this simple question but I am not sure.

Thanks,
Dcay

I'd say you have already worked it out. Black is the Negative

Vehicle - E92, Auto, no PDC.

Wiring connections look fine. Used Grzes wiring diagram and wires look correct - tripled check before splice and after splice. Emulator used was AutoFocusTech. Camera used was eBay Dynamic Trajectory Moving Guide

I think my coding is good. When I shift it into reverse, the car will switch to the rear camera screen, but there is no image on display.

I attempted to troubleshoot by hooking up an old Xbox into the female RCA (car in reverse to trigger the camera), but no change here.

Have tried RVC_CIC 21/23 - no success on both.

Will recheck the ground in the trunk.

Anything else I should look for?
Update on this - brought the car to a local AV shop. They were able to test the system for me with a Pioneer camera and the video feed comes on with their camera. This means that the camera I am using is faulty and I have ordered a replacement camera.

Hi,

Forgive me for asking a potentially really dumb question. I'm looking to do this retrofit and am looking at these two emulators for my car that has rear parking sensors:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Reversing-I...t/281474834192

https://www.ebay.com/itm/RVC-PNP-Emu...S/274262486573

The difference between these two seems that one of them has a harness and the other one has a bunch of wires that go somewhere. Does the harness option make the emulator easier to install in a plug and play sort of way?

Thanks.

I have used both and prefer the non-harness version. 4 wires need to be hooked to the car's wiring and one to the camera power. Some high-quality taps like PosiTaps work well.

The harness version makes the install slightly easier but this version does not appear to have the white wire to power the camera. Also, the harness can be challenging to tuck back in behind the CIC.

Could you kindly check if this harness below will do the job in terms of powering the camera:

That is just an extension harness. It just allows you to cut wires without cutting the factory wiring. The white wire to power the camera comes out of the emulator. The plug and play harness uses a different emulator. You may want to ask the ebay seller. The pictures may not match what they send.

Right, I'll just get the emulator without the harness and get help on the wiring part once I've routed the camera cable back to front. I'm in the UK so just wanted to double check if this is the right one for me:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Reversing-I...t/281474834192

There is this other listing on eBay's uk site but costs almost twice as much:

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Reverse-I...C/223913581451

Could you please help me pick one? I've got a 2010 320i business edition that came with a cic iDrive and rear parking censors.

Thanks

I would only get the emulator alone. As the PNP harness is junk!

I ended up cutting the emulator off the PNP harness and its a easy to tap in 4 wires and pin in the 2 video pins. Your first link is fine.

I have 2011 E91 328i xDrive Wagon with Manual Transmission. I'm using a cheap camera from one of the links to Amazon.
Do I wire power for rear view camera to the reverse light or the rear camera power from the interface unit? Not sure how the interface unit will know when to send power to the rear view camera on a manual transmission.
Wiring diagrams attached.

Also not sure why there are red 12v? wires coming out of the extended AV cable to reach to interface unit.

The Emulator comes with camera power output (white wire) You don't need power from reversing lights or other power.

Basically once the RCA cable is ran from the trunk to the connection behind the unit. The red wire on the rca is to make it easier for running the power from the emulators white wire to power the camera. Make sure you ground the camera's black wire though. I'm not 100% on how those micro cables are setup as i had the old type connection. But you will get the general idea.

Is it the same process for a manual car?? I've read in some places that you need power the camera using one of the reverse lights if your car is manual...is that right?

I have a Car Solutions QPI-BM09 model.
Found the manual at the link. They should have included it. The unit is capable of reading CAN to turn on reverse without need for wiring to reverse lights for power or signal.

https://car-solutions.com/en/video-i...ng-guidelines/


So far CAN mode set via in screen menu is not working. DIP 7 set to Not Factory Camera (X1 has factory camera), and REAR power out from the unit is ran all the way to rear camera using dedicated wiring.

EDIT: got it all working. My car is manual. CAN is not working, might need coding? So I run a wire from the reverse light to the Pin 7 (7 pin power connector) on the Car Solutions QPI-BM09. When power is detected at pin 7, the REAR-C (rear camera power) then sends 12V to power up the rear camera, and switches the screen to rear camera video input.
Without CAN or the Pin 7 receiving DC 9-12v power, the Rear C won't send 12V out, instead it puts out like 20 mili-volts according to my testing. For reverse light trigger, I just jammed a wire into the OE connector I don't like invasive tapping connectors.
Takes about 2 seconds for the video to appear once in reverse, engine running or not.
Using the 12v out from RearC connector of the Car Solutions QPI-BM09 to power the reverse camera, there are no issues with interfere on video signal.

Do you recommend any eBay emulator and camera for my E93(longer cable)? I have OEM CIC, so I only need camera emulator.
Possibly with dynamic lines, but not for 3x the price.
