    Hey guys. I want to wire up the anytime rearview camera switch on my 2015 trd sport with nav and entune. The write ups I found were for the mirror display. Wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction. Thanks!

    You will have to wire the switch between the input and output on the ECM side to be able to do so.

    Later second gens like yours and mine operate differently than the earlier models in order to operate the backup cam.

    Alright. I am by no means great with electrical care to elaborate/ walk through? Have you done this mod? Looking for some help isolating the wires to splice in to..
    Thanks!

    Wonder if this could be done as well with an aftermarket Head Unit?

    I will have to take a look and see what I did later. It has been a long time since I did the mod, but it still works for me to date and is one of the most convenient mods I've ever done. Only problem is you lose the auto on when in reverse function.

    Yes It can. I run it with my current aftermarket unit and I ran it when I was engine JBL equipped also.

    So I got the supplies needed from croms post. About ready to start mod but I am having doubts about my understanding. With my on-off-on switch from what I am reading I run my reverse 12v wire (once cut) into T1 or T3 on the switch, then my add a circuit runs to the opposite toggle (T1 or T3) and the middle position T2 continues to wear the 12v reverse wire was running into the harness?? Is my thought process correct? Not too confident in my understanding as a lot of posts have conflicting wiring lol... ahhh any clarification appreciated!

    I don't know what kind of switch you have.

    All you are doing is creating an interruption to the current flow with the button disengaged. Engage the button, you just enabled the circuit to flow it's current again.
