| Fitting a rear view camera to show on the Sat Nav Screen |
|
I am looking at getting a rea view camera fitted and would like to have it show on the Sat Nav screen. I am told that a wiring diagram of the system would help. Anyone been into this before?  Disco 3 TDV6 HSE, Auto, White, Rear Diff Lock. ARB BB, Traxide DBS, GME TX3540S, Safari Snorkel, IIDTool-BT, Doran TPMS, Rijidij Spare Wheel Carrier, Two side by side Drifta drawers, cargo barrier and drop down fridge slide, ARB 47l Fridge, Yokohama A/Ts and out of date 17" Cooper STTs.

I'm sure there are threads on this. In summary, the core system could possibly support it directly. (There is a video input.) But I have not yet found a way to activate the function in the core system. (Basically, I want it to work like the 2006 Range Rover.) Nav-TV is rumored to be working on a solution.
A typical aftermarket trick is to bypass the video display input wiring... but due to it's integrated design, this is not easily possible on Land Rover vehicles. So, for now... having a separate rear view screen either standalone or embedded on the rear view mirror might be the only option.

Try the "[Download] Woodman's Video on Sat Nav Screen Mod" thread in this (Maintenance & Modifications) forum. It has a very helpful pdf file that explains the process.

Thanks Grommett and Engin. I will check out the video. Certainly a stand-alone system is the other option. It is a bit surprising that this facility, even as an accessory, is not offered. I might go back to the dealer and see if they have a supplier (at huge expense, so doubt) that can integrate with the Sat Nav. Disco 3 TDV6 HSE, Auto, White, Rear Diff Lock.

Engin, that really only covers a bit of the wiring... it isn't very useful, since you can only access the video in test/diag mode. If you buy the current expensive Nav-TV video input hack, you can select one input... but it doesn't turn on the auto rear camera function that the core system should support.

Correct! I have not tried it personally yet, but it sounds like a tedious process of using hard keys, pushing an invisible button on screen and entering a code, etc. etc. However, it still seems to be the only option right now that offers multiple inputs e.g. front & rear cams and DVD.
