2018 Gold 380FLF.
I want to install a wireless backup camera.
It is supposed to be pre-wired. There is no bracket on the rear.
Does anyone know where the wires are?
There are no back-up lights on the coach, and I only want the camera on when I back up.
I'm thinking the wires are only to provide power to the camera.
Thanks.

I don't have caner wiring but if it came prewired I would look under the top canter clearance light and see if the wires aren't capped under it.

You might consider a truly wireless camera with a magnetic camera mount that is battery powered and that you turn on and install only when needed. Less hassle to install, but a little more hassle to use. Just a thought.

Seasonal - that is an excellent idea. I emailed KZ. Their response, after going back and forth, was yes it is. But, I asked where the wires were, and after the 3rd email, I received "There would be a bracket there if it was prewired." But, there is no bracket. I'm going to check the "window" sticker and see if there's any mention of the prewire.
Your suggestion is good, and I'm going to look into that better.
Thanks.

I am using the garmin bc30 camera and zip tied it to the bumper and also used the extender cable to place the transmitter in front on 5th wheel. I wired it directly to battery with on/off switch so I can see it as I travel down the road. I use the Garmin RV770 on a 2017 Durango 2500 40.5 BH347BH model. It is 40.5 foot long with no issues.

That’s the Garmin baby cam right? |

yes, I installed one on the 5th wheel an one on my truck. Works great. I have used the BC30 to backup in my yard several times. Life is better with it.

I pulled the trigger on a BC-35 for my Garmin RV785 unit. I want to install on my Gold where the pre-mount for a furrion is on the back. When you say you wired directly to the battery, where did you put the on/off switch, inside the battery compartment? Doesn't the backup cam pre-wiring connect to the running light in the back or is that pre-wiring only hot when the truck headlights are on? Any advice you can provide (pics perhaps?) would be appreciated. |
