grab Reverse (+) for Rear Camera
 
Hello everybody...
where can I tap the reverse signal cable (+) to control a camera at the rear? Unfortunately, I have no way to get under the VAN and I have read that the cable (light green) should run somewhere inside. Can someone tell me where that is?
Unfortunately, I can not take it from the reversing light, I have to get the cable somewhere in front.
Thanks in advance

The reverse light wire comes from the front.

Hey ...
I had hoped that someone could say "the cable runs there" or "there you can pick it up the easiest" or something.
Unfortunately, I am very poor at reading diagrams, but I know that the cable comes from the fuse box underhood. Only where does it come along, I do not know ...

Depending on what year the van is, there is a wire in the radio plugs.

I have no idea what year of truck you have, or even the model for that matter, but on my truck there is a factory splice, a factory connector, under the drivers seat near the fuse box. You can simply tap into all of the camera wiring from there. I believe it is an 8 pin connector. If you have the reverse camera feed on the rear-view mirror, there also a connector to tap into on the right hand A pillar under the trim.

sorry Guys, i forgot to tell, its a GMC Savana 11/2006 Explorer Limited SE...
it is a Aftermarket Rear-Cam integrated in 3rd Brake-Light.
@dberladyn Now it would be great to know which cable color I have to search to be able to control the camera. As I said, I only need the + line from the 8 pin connector. Is the camera preparation available at every VAN, or in my year of construction?

Why can't you grab the line at the reverse light?

that is difficult to explain ...;)
I live in Germany, the lighting had to be changed (previous owner) and the wiring behind is now very different, as it was original.
no idea where the cables are now running and what color they have now. Sure, it can be figured out, but the easier way is from the front. Even if that is not easy.

which part do you have trouble with? It's kind of an essential skill if you're going to be working on vehicles yourself.
