Front camera not working

Postby RGN01 » Sat Nov 04, 2017 8:26 am

I am configuring my new Pumpkin CN01-02306B-02A unit and cannot get the front camera to work. Please can you help me get it sorted?

I am using a Pumpkin Y0805 for a reverse camera and that works correctly. The front camera is a Pumpkin Backup Camera (the one with the lens in the centre and an LED each side).

Both cameras work when plugged into the backup camera RCA socket. Neither camera works when plugged into the front camera RCA socket so I'm confident that it is not a camera fault. This leaves the cable or the head unit as the potential problem areas. I've continuity checked the cables from the plug to the RCA sockets and they are all good (but without a pinout diagram I am unable to confirm correct assembly) so I fear that my head unit may be faulty and I may have to return it.

During testing I did manage to get a USB front camera working when I set the front camera type to USB in the Factory Settings menu. The quality was so poor it is not a viable option but at least it proves that the application I was using to test with worked OK.

What more can I check? Is there a setting that I must change?

Please help.

Thanks.

Richard

Hi?
Could you show me some pictures about the front camera,the front camera RCA socket and the connection way?
Please first tell me your order number in amazon or buyer id in ebay,Pumpkin or AliExpress so that we can confirm more information about your unit and provide you positive solutions.

Thanks, Jammy. Is it possible that this will be changed in a future firmware upgrade, perhaps?
