There are eight wires which pin into the connector at the tailgate cavaties 1 thru 6 are for the backup
Camera, pins 7 and 8 are for the locking tailgate. I believe pin 3 circuit Z914 is used as a common ground for both.
PIN CIRCUIT WIRE COLOR GAUGE FUNCTION
1 X970 DG/BR 0.5 CAMERA SIGNAL
2 D403 OR/DB 0.35 LIN BUS CBC 3
3 Z914 BK 0.8 GROUND
4 X971 DG/OR 0.5 CAMERA RETURN
5 X972 BK 0.5 CAMERA SHIELD
6 F923 PK/YL 0.35 RUN RELAY CONTROL
7 P237 DG/TN 0.8 SECONDARY UNLOCK DRIVER
8 P235 LG/TN 0.8 SECONDARY LOCK DRIVER
So. With an aftermarket Camera, given the presence of that harness, I should not have to draw power from another source. There are 4 wires on my camera. Signal, Signal Return, Shield, Ground and Trigger. I would then splice them into pins 1, 4, 5, 3 and 6 respectively?

Is sounds so simple, yet, I can not get it to respond. I extracted the pins from the connector housing and laid-out my alligator clips connecting those wires. No luck. I'm wondering if I could have fried the camera tinkering with this while it was hot?There's no Trigger in the truck per se'. Not sure if your camera has a separate 12v source or not, ie trigger = 12v supply. Basically the camera will be powered up whenever the key is on the 'run' position and outputting video... The radio will decide when to display the BuCam picture, ie in reverse.
Usually, you only need the 4 wires
6 >> 12v SW Power (Run relay)
3 >> Ground
1 >> Signal + (center video pin on RCA)
4 >> Signal Rtn (outer video pin on RCA)
5 >> Shield (most aftermarket cams don't have it)

Yep, they do that to save money at the factory on the harness. . Specific to the truck. I incorrectly assumed you had verified what you have.I found the culprit! The next junction in the wiring harness omits all of the 6 wires assigned to the camera! Why would they want to dupe owners like that?
Good evening! New to the forum and have read a lot about installing the OEM reverse camera on my 2014 Ram 1500. I ordered the mopar part #82214240 to install and use with the 8.4 Uconnect. After following the mopar directions EXACTLY and STEP BY STEP as they are listed. I had previously had the code added for the camera at the same time I had the Trailer Brake Control Module activated. I have double and triple checked all connections MULTIPLE times. After completing the installation, I reconnected the battery to the negative post and gave it a shot. Head unit will not power up and also getting service shifter, service trailer brakes, service electronic braking system and the traction control light stays on. I double and triple checked all connections across the install and all was as it should be according to mopar instructions. On the BCM I had to splice the purple wire into the orange/dark blue in slot 45 of the C5 connector. Ok the radio harness, I had to remove blue, lt blue and gray from slots 31-32-33 (first three in the row). Spiced in power under PD box to the Pink/yellow wire in slot 13.
Any ideas as to why I have no power and throwing codes??? TIA
It's not listed as the XAC code in the Alfa tool. This is only the way it shows up with the dealers tool. Go into the Alfa tool under body computer while not connected to the truck and type in(rear) and all the settings for the rear view camera will come up. There are several that need to be set. There should be a list of known working codes in the beginning of the Alfa thread.Hello all, is there a write up anywhere about using alfaobd to add the XAC code? I'm usually pretty good at finding things, but I'm not finding a write up anywhere.
Any help would be appreciated!
