From the FSM.



The 12V power is the brown wire with the yellow stripe. The black wires are to ground.

Re: factory reverse backup light wire color? for backup camera

my aftermarket radio harness has a reverse gear signal wire.
So in order for the radio, to know that i was in reverse i will have to tap in to the brown/yellow wire run that wire to my aftermarket and attach it to the reverse gear signal wire?
also is there a closer location of that wire from the radio?

Re: factory reverse backup light wire color? for backup camera

the switch on the side of trans is pretty easy to get to but i would just put a switch somewhere, a lot of backup cameras and head units take several seconds to switch on and to the different input which can be annoying when you are doing a multi point park job. if you have the switch you can turn it on whenever you want.
