    I was unable to de-pin the terminals for the unused wires so I just crimped on the connectors and now I’ll add the wires needed for the switch illumination and ground for the anytime camera install. Triple checking the diagram so I don't forget anything.

    Howdy fellas, happy Friday. Playing catch-up here... quick explainer on why/if/when I'm MIA recently and possibly in the near future

    Daughter #2 was born this past Tuesday! Officially a father of two and girl dad x2. Brave new world for us navigating life with two kiddos. But extremely happy and everyone is doing well / healthy so all good things over here.

    Well that was short lived. I get home and back my truck in. Rear camera is acting funny. I wiggle some wires and it starts working. Upon further inspection, the wires going to the relay got damaged when I put the lower dash back together. :annoyed:

    I’ll have to see if I can get the relay separately.


    edit: Just ordered the switching relay.

    https://www.anytimebackupcamera.com/products/switching-relay


    Now I need to find a better mounting location. I thought it was good to the right of the TPMS computer but obviously not. I'll try to the left of the TPMS computer. There's nothing there when the dash goes back together.

    Happy Monday Morning.
    We start working Saturdays this week. One Saturday on and one off. My day off during the week is Tuesday. I would've preferred Monday but the shop foreman got that day.
    He wasn't even supposed to work Saturdays which would've gave me Monday off, oh well.

    Now if there's any trips planned, I'll have to take a look at the calendar.

    While at Harbor Freight I gave the Icon box I'm looking at a test drive. I like it. Built better than the US General box.
