Default Reverse wire color and location for reverse camera

I've searched but the app search sucks and I cannot find what I'm looking for.


I have a Kenwood DD HU and want to hood up the purple reverse sensing wire so my camera image automatically comes on when in reverse, short of running wire all the way back to reverse light wiring, where can I find one in the cab and what color is it?

I would really appreciate pictures of location to nail it down exactly.

There should be a purple & white wire in the main harness that you hooked your HU up to. That's the reverse signaling wire.

On the truck side?

I believe so. Did you attach your Kenwood HU with a harness? There should be a purple & white wire on that connected to a purple & white wire coming from the power connector to the HU. Splice into that.

Thanks for finding my old one, I put it off and never did it and now I'm getting around to some things. Lol
