My trailer uses a five wire hook-up rather then four. Does this preclude using this camera???

It's pre wired for the four wire and it's not long. I don't know if you could hard wire to your five wire or not. I spiced into mine to make it longer but I'm still not happy. Plan to sell men on Craigslist or something. Wireless has too much interference and the monitor is way too small for this old timer. Good luck.

I purchased an adapter along with my camera. That said though, I returned my camera because it didn't work for me

You will need to get an adapter. Some vehicles may need a 7 position to 4 position adapter, which is not included. In your case, a 5 position to a 4 position adapter would be needed.

You can use an adapter for the connection you have available where hitches are sold.

no it wires directly to the battery on the trailer. the hot wire comes with an inline fuse.

Jonathan I believe that this camera is designed for use with a 12V DC system, hence the red wire would be the positive and the black one ground. I believe you will have to come up with a 12V transformer of some kind for power before you can even hope to this thing to work. Again I'm not positive on this since I could never get the thing to work satisfactory. I returned it to Amazon. Hope this helps.

I had my camera installed but I don't think that they needed any other wiring. I don't see any charges for additional parts. I had my camera installed to be on all the time so I can keep an eye on the tow vehicle as my motorhome is 30' long.

I have it hooked to four cameras i purchased from harbor freight...the way i have it hooked up is very unconventional because my cameras need to be hooked to the mini monitor they came with for their power...so i had to purchase different male and female connectors for it to work...i looked on amazon to see what might work for me and went from there...i decided to go that avenue because the quality of both audio and video from my cameras was worth the extra effort. Most cameras can be hooked to this dvr by obtaining the right connectors.If you need additional help...feel free to ask...i know it can get very frustrating.

This camera is wired and needs an electrical supply. This camera is probably not going to work for you.

Depends on how it is wired. Used multiple cameras on a commercial building and the electician got them all to work.

The answer is yes, but the installation is not just plug and play. you may need to cut the wire and idenfity the video+/video- wire and power/ground wire then connect individual wire to new camera.

That is how it's designed to be wired. The instructions are easy to follow and even offer a way to wire the camera for it to stay on constantly as you might with a big RV.

No. A 4 camera system has only 4 connectors, thus you cannot add more cameras.

if you wire it appropriately then yes. few people do. I wired mine to a backup light so the camera is only on while I backup my car. In your case you need to wire it to constant + with a switch in between so you may turn it on or off when you want.

I assume you are talking about the backup camera wires? If so, any small gauge wire will do.

I have 2 of these cameras already installed and they work great. I was thinking about adding an additional camera, and want to know how do I connect the new camera to the two other cameras for AC power?

this is a question that can only be answered after seeing the area, but you are restricted by where electrical outlets are located (can't use extension cord) and the system will only support 6 cameras. Good luck....

Only has 4 video connection ... You need to run power to the camera ... A single balun unit witch is different then this one runs video, power and PNT but only runs one camera witch this one runs 4 cameras ......

Not sure. What I did was buy two of the long cables that go from the display to the camera. One cable is permanent connected to the camera that is on my truck. The other cable is connected to the display and they routed along same route as the other and hangs free (with a wx cover on it). My second camera is mounted on RV with long cable and when I tow the RV I just connect the two cables together. I put it on V2 and then can see behind my RV. The whole system was very easy to hookup. Hope this helps you a little bit. But actuall no quick disconnect, have to screw the male connection into the female connection near my hitch.

I think so...I hooked it to a video display monitor in my RV. It just uses RCA connections to hook up so if you have a yellow AUX Video Input you should be fine. You'll still need to power the camera too.
