    Furrion Backup Camera Power Connector

    This is what I got: Feisike 1080P RV Backup Camera It works very well. It comes with one camera, but the receiver can support up to four. It streams video with a decent frame rate. It has never dropped out. I would get it again.

    Blackstone Griddle - Game Changer!

    I got the two-burner Blackstone 1813 griddle and the folding stand for trailer camping. Portability is key. I didn't have space in my Surveyor 220RBS external storage for the fully-assembled unit, so I made a wooden frame to hold the griddle section, and modified a cardboard box to hold the...

    Furrion Backup Camera Power Connector

    Furrion tech support responded to my inquiry, confirming that the trailer’s factory-installed wiring was incorrect. I’m good to go.

    Furrion Backup Camera Power Connector

    My camera derives its power from the running (marker) lights, which use white/green as positive, and white as negative (ground). A Keystone RV wire color chart listed green as marker lights and white as the return (ground), so I ran with it. As an electronic engineer, I find the lack of a...

    Furrion Backup Camera Power Connector

    I live in a hilly area, and my driveway slopes in two directions. I built this ramp to keep the trailer level. Backing the trailer onto this ramp is tricky. Using the backup camera should make this task much easier. You can see the dashed yellow centerline marker that I will align with the arrow...

    Now it’s time for the performance evaluation.

    Furrion Backup Camera Power Connector

    I decided that the factory-installed trailer wiring was incorrect. I connected the camera red wire to the trailer green/white, and the camera black wire to trailer white. The camera now works properly. This image shows the end of the asphalt pad in the campground. On the trailer’s bumper, you...

    Furrion Backup Camera Power Connector

    The trailer is ore-wired with a Furrion rear-view camera mount. I was installing a new camera, and discovered that it didn’t work. As unlikely as it seems, the trailer wiring appears to be in error. I’d like to confirm this, though.

    Furrion Backup Camera Power Connector

    This IS an audio connector, but Furrion decided at one point to use it as a power connector. As wired in my trailer, the tip is negative and the sleeve is positive. This is a very unusual configuration, and I suspect the trailer is miswired. From a Keystone page, I saw a wire color chart that...

    Furrion Backup Camera Power Connector

    Thanks, but that’s the kind of non-specific stuff I have been finding. I’m an electronic design engineer, and know tons about electrical things. I just don’t know trailer wiring color codes, or how the Furrion connector is pinned out. It’s maddening to be unable to find the exact, detailed...

    Furrion Backup Camera Power Connector

    Thanks, but I already have the cable. What I don’t know is if the trailer is miswired, or if it’s the camera that is incompatible. I know HOW to fix it - I just don’t know WHERE to fix it. If the trailer is wired properly, I don’t want to mess that up.

    Furrion Backup Camera Power Connector

    I did attempt to contact Furrion, just to cover my bases. I got an automated response saying a support ticket was created… I’m still hoping someone here knows something.

    Furrion Backup Camera Power Connector

    I’m in a campground now, and am hoping to get an answer quickly. I was hoping someone on here actually knows the answer.

    Furrion Backup Camera Power Connector

    It’s definitely the power connector. I don’t like it, and would never use a miniature phone plug as a power connector, but that’s what Furrion was using in 2018.
