12 pin connector and Trailer Surround View Camera

[Brutal_HO]

Do you have a link to the infotainment wireless option? I can't find it on their site.

Sorry, I keep saying infotainment and I think it's actually visionworkscameras.com. @Visionworks84

Same, 40’ limits some of the major applications. I may have to roll with the Furrion set up with side mounted cameras too.

We just released our wireless integration kit for both Ram and Ford.

If you want to use as an observation camera rolling down the road, you would still need someone's black box or a Tazer (though not 100% sure if tazer camera override works on HD's)

It's a RP-TNC, and I found a RP-TNC to fakra cable on amazon available in various lengths:

Amazon.com: 6 feet RG58 RP-TNC Male to Fakra Z Female RF Pigtail Coaxial Cable : Electronics

Buy 6 feet RG58 RP-TNC Male to Fakra Z Female RF Pigtail Coaxial Cable: Coaxial - Amazon.com ✓ FREE DELIVERY possible on eligible purchases

www.amazon.com

I just tested it out, the camera works great with that cable and the 68532403AA connector. Thanks again Jimmy.

Turns out this wasn't a great solution long term - camera just wasn't reliable with the aftermarket camera. I went back to the stock one with the extra coiled up. The stock cable is much thicker/stiffer.

My 2021 Power Wagon was ordered with the Towing Technology Group, Surround-View Camera System, Digital Rearview Mirror, and Trailer Camera Wiring (No Camera) by Mopar. It has a 12-pin connector on the bumper.

What are my options for adding a camera to the rear of my travel trailer? And where will I be able to view the feed, on the digital rearview or the Uconnect display?

I do have an OBD Link MX+ and bypass cable for any needed software changes.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Has anybody been able to find a source for the 12-pin trailer side plug (or umbilical as it was termed earlier)?
The OEM manufacturer is Erich Jaeger in Europe and they won’t sell them piecemeal.
I see Visionworks has figured out where to get them since it is on their plug-n-play camera and also Nichols welding but VW’s wants $199 for just the plug and I’m still waiting on a response from Nichols.

Ford uses the same connector and it’s much cheaper.

I am aware that Ford’s 12-pin is the same and I have also heard that theirs is cheaper but I can’t find anybody that can actually provide a part number or even a source to get just the plug (or maybe plug & pigtail) to back those claims up.
The only plugs I can find are all connected to wiring harnesses for cameras, TTPMS, YAW, etc.
I just want a replacement plug so I can wire in my own higher quality analog camera.
Wide open for ideas on where to get that plug

The wiring harness for their camera is what people are buying and then wiring in their own camera.

I see, thanks for the clarification.
