My camera is mounted close to my hitch and I'd like to do this to keep an eye on the hitch but I'm just getting more confused. Anyone care to write this up as simple as possible?

The dual throw relay isolates the signal so that it does not back feed into the ecu which may cause some issues.
Here is the Backup Camera Only portion of the mod I have done which can be seen in detail at Toyota 4Runner Video on Nav and Anytime Backup Camera Mods, hope it helps.

Sorry to revive an old thread, but was anyone able to make this mod work?

I can clear the vsc light and turn off the back up lights with a code reader. I would like to be able to use this mod since I tow a jeep trailer off road. Can you offer some help with this? you seem to be very good at this. I also noticed that you have made a devive to take care of this. I just need a simple switch mod.
Thanks for all your help on past mods.

You NEED a relay. Are you using that or just a switch?

I tried just a switch, I am not sure how to wire the relay. I could use a diagram of just the relay and switch wireing. Aslo what relay model number did you use? I know that this works and it should not be this complicated. I have done other wireing mods but not with relays. Thanks for the rast reply and past help on 4 runner projects

No offense J.A. but your understanding far exceeds some of us so what is obvious to you is foreign to us. I'm also interested in doing this but need a more simplistic diagram.

Understand, but the diagram posted says it all. Need more pointed questions to be of assistance. The relay is a Panasonic DS2E-S-DC12V DPDT 12V PCB Mount Relay. Solder it to a board and connect the wires as shown. Happy to help but not sure how to. Let me know.

CXS is righr, but it's becimming mor clear after going back to your diagrams and instructions. I have ordered the relay after re-reading your instructions and diagram. It was not that easy for us that don't know how th read electric diagrams and we all don't know the electric symbals. I think I have it now. I'll let you know if I was successfull.
thanks for helping with this...this is one mod I have been trying for some time..

Thanks for the offer J.A. I'm going off the 1st post in this thread rather than yours due to my inability to follow yours. You replied that a relay was needed but I'm unsure of where this needs to be added. I also think you and the OP used different switches, is a DPDT what you recommend? Ideally a simple drawing showing the placement of the relay would be great.
