Hello everyone.

I have searched all over the net including this forum and I have yet to find a pinout for the rear backup camera of an 05 MDX. I have this camera sitting around and I want to modify it to output to a standard display instead. I can post the wire colors later if needed but really, if anyone had even a basic pinout I would greatly appreciate the help. If needed, I can get the camera model number and wire color/count later today.

 

Also, would it be right to assume the output of the camera is analog? The camera I believe had 6 wires, red/black that I guess are power, and then 4 other wires. I have a theroy that the camrea might be using the s-video format of Chrominance, Luminance, C and Y ground given the number of wires but once again, any input would be greatly appreciated so I dont have to find someone with a scope.

 

Thought I would chime in, but from the other angle. I have an 05 base MDX with the non-navi LCD display and the wife wants a backup camera. Aftermarket cameras come with composite or RGB outputs, so I'm looking for a pin-out on the non-navi display to figure out the connection.

In case anyone suggests this, I scoured the TL forums with all their incredible hacks, but the base TL does not have this display, so I didn't find anything helpful for my specific application.

Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks.

 

Just found a great post on mdxers.org where someone converting to Navi included pics and the connector diagrams from the service manual (2004). Suggestions from anyone with experience on whether this is RGB, composite, s-video?
