Dodge Ram/RAM Trucks (2013-2017) Backup Camera Kit with Tailgate with Plug-and-Play Interface

Features

• Original Tailgate Handle Look & Feel: With included brackets, easily replaces your factory handle. This camera cleverly integrates seamlessly into your vehicle's existing tailgate handle design. This maintains the original look of your truck while adding a valuable safety and convenience feature.

• Tri-Color Parking Guidelines: Helps guide you into parking spots. These guidelines are superimposed on the camera's image displayed on your car's radio screen. As you reverse, the guidelines dynamically adjust based on the steering wheel angle, helping you visualize the trajectory of your vehicle and park more precisely. 

• 170° Viewing Angle: Offers an expansive view of the area behind your vehicle. This wide viewing angle provides a broader picture of what's behind your vehicle compared to a standard camera. This can help you see potential obstacles or hazards that might be out of view with a narrower angle camera, like oncoming traffic or objects close to the corners of your bumper.

• IP67-Rated Water-Resistant: Operates in all weather conditions. This rating signifies that the camera is protected against dust and water intrusion. It can withstand exposure to rain, snow, dirt, and dust, ensuring reliable operation in various weather conditions.

• BCI-CH41 Harness: Unlocks navigation entry while the vehicle is in motion, uses ECO-Mode memory & more!

Additional Harness Features

• ECO-Mode Memory: This feature memorizes your preferred ECO mode setting, so you don't have to manually select it every time you start your vehicle.
  
  
• Steering Wheel Control (SWC) swap: This allows you to customize the functions assigned to the buttons on your steering wheel. You can swap the controls for functions like radio volume, track skip, phone call answer/end, or even voice assistant activation. This lets you keep your hands on the wheel and focus on driving while controlling these features more easily.
  
  
• Audio/Video input capabilities: This feature allows you to connect external audio or video sources to your car's infotainment system. You might be able to connect devices like portable DVD players, gaming consoles, or aftermarket headrest monitors for rear-seat passengers.
  
  
• Remote Start Climate Retention: If your vehicle has a remote start function, this feature allows the climate control system (heating or air conditioning) to remember your last settings. When you remotely start your car, the climate control will automatically begin working to adjust the cabin temperature to your preference before you get in.
  
  
• Allows custom configuration of factory SWC: Similar to SWC swap, this feature provides more granular control over how the steering wheel controls function. You can program specific buttons to activate features you use more often, like voice commands for navigation or music selection.
  
  
• Programmable 12v output to power a reverse camera, A/V switcher or a generic accessory output: This feature provides a 12-volt power source that you can program to turn on or off under certain conditions. You can use it to power various aftermarket accessories like a backup camera, a video switcher to connect multiple audio/video sources, or even a generic accessory like a phone charger.
