(since I work there!) we can get you set up for sure, I will even install it for you! If you want come buy the shop any day and ask for Jon (me) or Alex (my boss).
Thanks, I know Futureshop SEC well, but unfortunately my budget won't stretch to include replacing the stock stereo with an aftermarket H/U. I may just have to do without

Thanks for the info guys.
I do know that video in motion and inputting GPS locations in motion are only available with Lockpick or the other Nav unit.
The extra cost for that (over just having camera on reverse) wasn't really worth it for me- so my preference was to just stick with a camera that would connect to the existing H/U without these added features
CoreyZ - thanks, I heard the Commander camera would fit. I will continue to look for a service manager that will do the flash- if I have to order the camera from the US....that's ok. I thought I was being fed a line about the "risks" - thanks for the suggestion thought of just popping out the lockpick before any warranty service! I did also hear that Mopar is coming out with a plug and play unit - could be rumour but if its true that might be the easy solution (yup, I know the stealership will soak me for the convenience LOL).

Default Still not working

I installed the the Mopar backup camera, the power wire (verified power to it in reverse with multimeter), ground wire, and changed the pins on the connector to 3,4,&5 and plugged it into the back of my RHB radio. Dealer activated it as well. When in reverse I only get black screen with "Check Entire Surroundings".

The pins were in different locations when I got it and I got the same result. Any idea what I did wrong?

FYI

I found a thread on a Chellenger forum that was very helpful. For my radio you need to plug the pins into 2,3,&4, not 3,4,&5. I did this and it worked.
