Rear view Trailer camera

[JimRn]

I'm towing a 22ft 2021 Coachmen Apex Nano travel trailer with the ranger and am wondering if anyone else has installed a backup camera that integrates into the Sync 3 system so I can see where I'm going behind the trailer when I shift into reverse. Thanks

Here is a setup that integrates with sync 3. They make great products, I have their Zen module for my audio setup.
Trailer Towing Solutions - Trailer-Cam View TCV-FORD1 - NAV-TV (navtv.com)

Has anyone installed the Ford TCV-Ford1 from the NAVTV guys?

I received mine, but am unable to make it work. I have no video for the inserted camera. They claim there must be another tailgate/camera connector that may work instead of the one that comes right out at the tailgate.

Hoping someone else found another connector that works. He referenced a previous Ranger owner who took several swaps before he found the correct connector.

Can anyone help?

Does the truck connector not fit the harness provided in the kit or it plugs in but doesn’t work? Really only seeing one connector for the rear view camera.

Evening,

Their harness fit as I sent them a pic before I purchased it. It was the one right before the tailgate up on the frame rail. Mine happens to be black, but he said some were white, and was two rows of 6 pins.

With the harness plugged in, it wouldn't see the their camera would just show original tailgate camera. So either their harness was bad, the camera was bad, or their harness is not configured for the different Rangers.

I sent it all back to them. I think they are testing it to see if the components are bad.

I will probably go another way with a wireless two camera setup and a small monitor for the dash. Just waiting on the return to be done.

Thanks for your help.
