I'm installing a new three camera back up system in my 2005 Winnebago 38J.
The instructions are pretty vague about where to get the trigger input
to activate the side cameras.

Do I just get it from the each turn signal output ?

John Canfield did a installation article back in 2011 but can't seem to find it.

Thanks in advance
 
Hi and welcome. I installed a side cam but I just selected the cam on the Sony monitor, it wasn't triggered by the turn signals. That cam lasted a year or two, got a replacement which lasted a year or two. Haven't bothered to replace it. But I digress...

If your turn signal lamps are the usual incandescent bulbs, you can probably use those to trigger the input, if they are LED (part of a digital dash) that might or might not work. If you bought the system from Tim at rvcams.com I would recommend you call him and ask.

What exactly do the instructions say?
