    When I press my cam button it takes me to the front camera. I am wondering how to toggle between the 2. I also just noticed that sometimes when I come to a stop in traffic, the front cam will kick on for a few seconds. Anyone else have this?

    i dont have 2 cameras but i have an idea press the screen or swipe it after you press the camera button and it might switch the camera. I think i tried that to see if i could get a zoom in on my camera and it switched to an unavaliable view

    Camera itself needs to have accessory power(power when truck is on, not just in reverse)...

    I believe you can make the back up safety message disappear if you hold your finger on it for a couple seconds. You can't make it completely go away, pretty sure its a legal thing(kenwood doesn't want to get sued from some moron that used the lack of an onscreen warning as an excuse as why they ran over a toddler)

    Did you wire yours up differently so it has constant power?

    I have the DMX905s so the previous model. That might make a difference.

    Mine works fine in both automatic (when I shift to reverse) and manual mode (pushing the button). Not sure what to say here. What adapter are you using for the reverse cam harness?

    I have the 906s with the Crux setup. Everything works great except the steering wheel controls. They only seem to work 1 out of every 20 times I press like volume up/down.

    Anyone have any idea what's going on? I'm pretty sure everything is connected right.

    I didn't get the maestro, I got the Crux one. Crutchfield is sending me a new module though, so I hope it works!

    This happened to me....I got the steering wheel controls to work but then the back up camera stopped.....was frustrated so I canceled and got refunded. They have great CS but something changed ad they were not aware of it yet.

    Oh shoot. I hope mine just magically works with the new module. Don't want to have to go through the pain of wiring up a maestro or something. I used their service for the Crux.
