Back up camera replacement

[Adam Hicklin]

I need to replace my back up camera, and possibly the monitor.  My original camera has a BNC connector and also a red and black wire connector which I'm assuming is power.  All the modern cameras have a red and yellow RCA connector.  Is there no power?  Typically RCA is yellow for video, red and white for sound.  Any help and advice is appreciated.

Adam,
If I remember correctly on my replacement, the yellow BNC is video and the red is power/gnd. Audio does not come from the camera. You'll need to get a BNC to Coax adapter for the new camera. Here's a post that may be helpful.

Thanks Steve. Yes,  I read that post and a couple others.  Assuming the red RCA connector is power, did you just cut it off and wire directly to the coach power supply?

Adam,
If I remember correctly  I found an adapter at Radio Shack or Frys. Maybe Gerald remembers as he installed the same camera.

Look at and call rvcam.com, they are very helpful and knowable of rv camera systems.  I changed mind out also.

Abam,
I purchased a BNC to coax adapter from Amazon for my rear view camera installation at the same time I ordered the camera.
