My head unit just developed a problem. Actually technically not the unit but the back up cam. The alpine back-up shows blank now.Any ideas?

There are about 3 different things that you can look for 1st make sure you still have power to the camera unit itself and that the wire is not come undone from the camera. The 2nd thing you would want to check is that the video feed cable is still okay and that it has not come undone and then 3rd, if you can reach the video connector you can take a regular camcorder and connect the video feed from your camcorder to your head unit and see if you get a picture if not, are you sure that it is switching to the video. If you happen to have used a bypass connector so that you could see the videos in the car while you were driving. It is possible that if that unit shorted it could blank out your head unit if it's none of those things and I'm assuming you've already disconnected and reconnected the unit at least once. Then I would say that you have a defective head unit, depending on how old the unit as it may be covered under warranty. I hope this helps a little bit at least. I really hope it fixes either way, I hope you have a good evening

To be honest, it's way to old of a system to find parts. I had a rear speaker go out with a blinking light and luckily found a post online of somebody having the same issue. Blown capacitor. Mine is still going but when it goes, it's gone for good. Great system though.

I installed an after market head unit with a video input into it , unless your head unit can accept an input that can be automatically switch too on receiving a signal . Then no

Hey Lee, I would suggest that you try to update the headunit first, thats the way for it to work because of the compatibility of the phone

I have never heard of this problem. Have you accidentally changed the volume settings for an individual source? If you have verified it's not a setting issue, I'd suggest contacting Alpine. Their tech support is very good.

Yes, I'm using a back-up camera from a previous Alpine unit and it works 100% fine.

Yes, I have that head unit as well. Just remember to turn on the input after you plug it in. For a while I thought it was broken, but soon figured it out.

Is there a different colored wire associated with the parking brake on that model? I had to buy an Alpine wire harness, as I bought my INE-940W used and it came with a harness that was missing the blue/yellow and black/yellow wires. Your model is newer, so I would assume that the wire color is either different or they made it so you couldn't cheat the system. Double check your instructions to see what wires are associated with the parking brake, if any at all. Hope that helps, but without seeing the instructions, or wires coming from the plug, I don't know what else to do. Google really helped me figure it all out. Crutchfield might have some options for you too. Good luck!! Is there a different colored wire associated with the parking brake on that model?

I did have two issues with unit after install: the camera did not work, and display will shut off when it warmed up. But unit still was working. Is your entire unit not working?

Dear Forrest 1, is there an existing hole in the trunk on your cc ? Need to replace the rear emblem badge 2, this camera work on rns315, rns510,rcd510 with a 26pin Rgb port, what kind of headunit on your radio?

I thought I might have that problem too because I replaced a really old Alpine. Mine went plug to plug no problem. Our local Ziebart store does stereo stuff if I need that...you might try Best Buy or Radio Shack to get something to come together.

I can't get mine to work also. I tried install the software and just get errors. I can't find any support help either! Plus upset that cam in back is not working.

Yes works great with my Alpine INE-W957HD head unit! Highly recommend buying it!

I do not have that feature on my steering wheel, so I can not be of help on that. Sorry..., but I do love my Alpine. Easy to operate, sound great.

By no means am I a professional, but I installed mine myself and had no similar issues. Works and sounds like a dream for me. If you've already double checked your install and wiring with a multimeter, I'd think maybe it had something to do with your head unit possibly????? But again, not a professional...Just a guess. Wish I could be more help. Good luck!!

You need to make sure that you have it installed to your aux input of your head unit. On your head unit, you need to make sure you select AUX or change the source to AUX.

To be perfectly honest, I never did get around to installing the backup camera with my P3100. When I go into the settings of the head unit you do see a section for camera polarity so what I would do is work with your installer and see if they have the parts necessary to install the backup camera for you.
