    Hey. I disconnected the negative battery terminal when installing the kicker dash speakers on my 2019 Taco. After connecting the negative wire back my reverse camera no longer is working. Install took no more than 40 mins. I do have a Front Rear Anytime Camera harness installed but that should not be an issue. IS there a reset that has to be done? WHen i put it in reverse now it shows a top view of the truck when i get near to an object but no camera. I looked on Youtube and on this site and no luck.

    Any thoughts? Thanks

    I did a CMC for someone that had that happen as well (disconnected the ground to weld). You have to disconnect the front anytime harness, start the truck and plug it back in. I'm pretty sure that's what he told me. It was a series of steps that included unplugging the harness and plugging it back in.

    Yup I've had the same issue. Connect battery. Unplug Anytime harness completely, plug back in and it should be good. It will happen anytime you disconnect the battery and reconnect.

    GHOST SHIP and Mtbkrguy, That worked :) Removing the FRAC and then turning it on after plugging back the stock camera did the trick. Everything is back to normal and i have great tunes now. Thanks for the quick replies :cheers:
