Hello - Need help and guidance

Please see attached photos of the back of the OEM head unit on my Alphard - I want to replace it with a Pioneer AVH - Z5200DAB. Can anyone help me identify which socket on the original unit is for the reverse camera connection? I seem to be able to locate the adaptors for everything else but not the reverse camera.

Thanks

Malcolm

This plug/socket (bottom right on your image of headunit connectors) Pin numbers are 5,6,16,17.

If connecting to an aftermarket headunit, you might need a Toyota 6v adaptor, if reusing existing camera.

Hmm. Actually, what year is your vehicle, it looks like you have 24 pins instead of 22, i can't tell because the one are quite reflective on the right hand side.

Could you check how many pins you have?

Hello Chris

Thanks very much for taking the time to provide this information; I know that you are right about the 6v reverse camera. What I have decided to do is to take out the OE reverse camera and replace it with a Pioneer camera that I hope will be an upgrade in terms of quality and is also adjustable, which the OE one is not. So I will route a new cable through the car to the back.

I think I have managed to track down all of the connectors to connect up the new unit and bypass the amp under the passenger seat.

The worst part of this job has been removing all of the aftermarket accessories which have been installed in Japan such as TV tuner, various aerials, remote control receptors and a separate DVD Player located in the glove box for the rear screen - This was not done very professionally, which surprises me given my own experience of Japanese people who normally do excellent work whatever they do.

To answer your question by the way, the car is 2010 and it is a 22 pin connector.

Best

Malcolm
