So I just received my camera today but wont get around to installing it until tomorrow. I just have a question about hardwiring it. I am basing my setup off of this guy since he has the same model car. He just did not go into detail about what other amp fuses he used on the add a fuses. I am also using the power magic pro to do this the same as him.
Here is a fuse diagram to go with it to help clarify what I need help with.
So for the add a fuse on the left, it is connected to the trailer control unit which has an Amp rating of 15. So if I were to use that fuse for the parking mode, does that mean I would need a 15amp fuse? Also what amperage fuse would I need to add on top of that? I've seen people say 5 works fine but some people use 10 which I am kind of iffy about.
Lastly, for the on ignition only power fuse on the right, it is tapped into the cigarette lighter fuse, which has an amp rating of 20. For that one I would be using that original fuse that is in there and for the added fuse, would a 5A fuse work as well? I am mechanically inclined but not so much on the electrical side.
Thanks for taking the time to read this and helping me if possible.
