2011 - 2016 Ford F250 Super Duty Android Navigation and Tailgate Backup Camera System Installation

[@jayflinn2873]

Can you post the exact stereo you bought, where can it be found? I have a 2011 F-250, don't need the camera, Did you happen to look for the harness to make steering wheel controls work? it comes with correct wiring plugs?

[@damonglover2044]

Where did you get the harness I can't find it anywhere

[@joelfortin9856]

Great video, thank you for sharing your expertise

[@restoration1tampabay922]

Thanks for making this video. It is full of valuable information that I used to install a Jensen CAR910X in my 2012 Super Duty with OEM Navigation unit. I too wanted to wire my AUX4 switch to force the rear camera on, but have failed. I used the switch to parallel 12V to the Reverse wire in the harness. I put in diodes so the AUX and Reverse signal did not back feed into each other, but both put 12V onto the head unit Reverse input. I assumed the radio would see the 12V on the Reverse and both switch to display the rear camera AND power up the camera by putting 12V on the Camera Power output wire. For some reason the Reverse Camera still works when I shift into Reverse. However, while the AUX4 switch makes the head unit switch display to camera, it doesn't power the camera, so the display reads No Signal from Camera. WHAT? How is this possible?

[@seanmiller4683]

What do you wire the medium size plug to? I purchased a wiring harness and it only came with the larger harness. I wired it up and the unit comes on but no sound. I do not have steering wheel controls and have the basic stereo in my 2011 F-250.

Is there a backup camera wire from my rear view mirror backup screen is to hook up to this radio thanks

[@elijahowens8507]

Im gonna be putting in my old pioneer dvd player in and will have to buy a aftermarket backup camera. It has the logo camera now but wonder if the tailgate handle would be better? It's a little cheaper

[@jacobmunoz9104]

The tailgate handle camera gives a much better view than the logo camera. Plus, you don't have to cut the tailgate open for it to work. Plus it's pretty much centered.

[@leonardoalvarez7985]

[@austinnichols3271]

Did this one actually work? I bought 3 from amazon, and they were all junk. Would power on, but wouldn't display anything

Great vid. Just ordered the same exact one off amazon for my 2012 f250, suppose to be here Monday. I'll be using this vid for sure, How are you liking it so far?

[@JuneyBucket18]

What connection in the back did u make I saw someone else say the same but no ones says what to make it to

[@tylerplatt3542]

I have a similar android radio and 2011 f350. I just can't seem to find the acc wire to tap into. My wireharness fits but doesn't quite work. I got mine from dblink. It's the fd03. Also could you elaborate more and a reverse wire signal wire. I've looked for ablue/white one but was told that was not a good one to tap into.

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

For the reverse wire i always run it from the backup lights in the bed along with the signal wire from the camera. See my other video for a good accessory wire feed. kzbin.info/www/bejne/aJm6hWypfK1_ndU

[@mdrmdr2002]

I thought I put this question up but I guess not. Could you please tell me what value the diode you used and maybe a little diagram of the wiring? Also where did the cam box come from?

[@MrCheyennehohensinn]

Jack of All Master of None Where did you put tour mic for BT calling? I just bought a deck but can't seem position the mic in a position that picks up my voice, I am finding that the stock mic with the sync system is far superior to the driod head unit. I just want another opinion, thanks

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

+Cheyenne I just use the internal mic on this installation but I would normally put it up along the headliner near the mirror

[@BigBobBlazer]

So, do you have a link for the aftermarket camera? I only saw a link for the radio…

[@WiedemannPhotography]

How is the actual radio, someone installed a Jensen radio in my truck and the radio is horrible picking up fm stations that are normal strong. Thinking about going to something like this. Thanks!

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

It has worked very well for me no problems. The reception is worse than a pioneer or Kenwood

[@gojo1991]

Just bought this for a 2012 F250 and it doesn’t work. Radio works fine when truck is off, and then turns off when I turn truck ignition on. When truck ignition is on it get the “no signal message”. Don’t understand, I may try to return it and get a new one to try out again.

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

Better than factory stereo

[@mckrackin5324]

My 2013 F250 has steering wheel controls and I assume they worked with the factory stereo. The previous owner removed the stereo and installed a junk Walmart single din. Anyway, will I need FORSCAN to get the steering wheel controls working? I'm thinking no?

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

Unfortunately I dont have enough information to help. It depends on what year you are installing this in. In my truck, there was no use for the can interface. The blue wire you describe sounds like the power antenna or amp wire. They will most likely not be connected to anything.

was it hard to wire back up camera? like was there small thin wire that you had to ground. are the wires quality? how much did that camera cost?

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

I don't remember how much it was. Google Ford oval backup camera. It was not real easy to install. Had to cut metal on the tailgate. Not for beginners really. It was good quality and works well. You do have to hook up power and ground.

[@connorlinnenbrink6617]

Jack of All Master of None ok where did you hook up to power and where did you ground it, I have a cheap one now and the wires are so thin and crappy and trying to ground to frame on outside of truck with thin wires isn’t idea

[@jonhershelman1817]

I picked up a similar unit for my F250. Had the same issue with the illumination wire. When I tried to connect it to my upfitter switch like you it caused the illumination lights to flash on and off. Did you run into this? A constant 12V keeps the lights on so I’m not sure if it’s an issue with the wiring or unit itself.

[@JackofAllMasterofNone]

The fix is to use +12v from the parking light circuit. The problem with using the upfitter switches (which i found out myself later) is they dim when u lower the brightness of your dash lights and drop voltage, which causes the radio illumination to go haywire.
