Troubleshooting
Symptom Possible Cause Remedy
1
Headunit only shows 
guidelines in reverse.
The aftermarket camera is not 
outputting a picture.
Check to make sure the camera is being 
powered on with a digital multimeter.
Test camera with a different display. Plug the 
RCA of the camera into a display with a RCA 
input.
Alternatively, you can use a different RCA 
source into the RCA input. For example, an 
old DVD player with a RCA output would 
show a picture with the vehicle in reverse. 
This will eliminate if the issue is with the 
head unit or the camera installation.
2
Nothing happens when 
vehicle is in reverse
The SGS-CH01 is not installed 
properly.
Make sure all of the dip switches are in the 
off position.
There is a harness that was not plugged in 
correctly. Using page 5 or 6 of this manual 
check each connection to ensure every 
harness is plugged in.
