hey guys im trying to install a boyo flush mount back up camera in my 05 dodge 2500. i have the new pioneer 4200 double din and im having issues with the wiring of the camera for some reason. i realize the video input goes to the back of the screen and then so i just ran the purple / white off my deck to the reverse light wire at the lamp itself. but where i get lost is that the 2 wire harness at the camera have one red wire and one yellow.... not following it all that well. maybe its cause im just having a brain fart but i cant get a damn picture out of this camera and im kicking myself about it haha. if anyone could help out i would greatly appreciate it .

So it's RCA connectors?
One for video & one for power?

there should be another piece that goes into the red connector that will have 2 actual wires coming from it that you hook to power. i suggest you just ground the black in the closest place possible and run the red power wire to your + reverse wire that you ran the pioneer to as well so the camera is only on when you are in reverse.
