In this guide, we’ll walk you through the reasons your Androidheadunit isn’t switching to the reverse camera and provide step-by-step fixes to get it working again.
On my headunit the camera input was set to "off" in the menus, so when selecting reverse I just got "no signal" on the screen. You need to find the menu that enables it and sets the protocol.

There are two very similar wiring schemes for the reversing camera and the REV Wire on an Androidheadunit. The first system (Circuit A) picks up the power for both the signal and the camera.
Once activated by reverse, camera keeps 12v in its red wire even if it is removed from suply. Then only key removal will turn it off with whole system of course.
I've got a standard Androidheadunit in my car, and I was wondering if there's a way to utilize the rear reverse camera as a rearview camera when I'm driving forward. Currently, it only activates when I put the car in reverse, but it would be super useful to have it as a constant rearview feed.
For $20, it is a great little camera and has wire loops to reverse the image for front or rear camera and to add or remove the guide lines. I have mine in front for offroading when going over a steep hill and I want to see beyond my hood.
