Front camera

Hi,
I want to connect a Front parking camera (composite) to my head unit (AE0373b) . It should turn on automatically when switching from Reverse gear Back to Forward Gear. A Reverse camera is already connected and works fine when switching to Reverse gear.
Which Plug do I need to use to connect the Front Cam to the unit and what Options to choose in the configuration?
Is it possible to get the Power (12V) directly from the device?
Thanks!

Hi,
You can connect the front camera to the Video-In port of the radio. Then select the aux-in mode. Cheers.
Best Regards

Hi Jammy,
thanks for your reply.
As mentioned I would like to use the Front Cam as a parking camera, which automatically switches on after Reverse.
Is this possible when connected like you recommended (Aux Video In)?
If not is it possible to connect the camera appropriatly via the so far unused plugs at the Back of the Head unit? E.g. in Block C or G. Maybe with a Special harness?
Is one of the Pins at the Back of the HU connected to Pin 3 of the Video Chip (FMS6502) , which should be the Front Cam Input?
Thank you for your reply.
Best regards

Hi,
Sorry that you cannot use the front cam as a parking camera. You can buy an DVR for use. Cheers.
Best Regards,
Jammy

I searched for fw20 and did not see anything that I was allowed to see, only one thing in the sale section or somthing which you need a post to view, so tada. Anyway, I have a fw20 deck and when you hit play on either side it usually spins but the left side of the tape just keeps getting eaten up, like maybe only on of the reels is spinning. anyone know how to fix this?
