I have an Alpine ILX-207 head unit with a Crux SOCGM-17C. I’m putting it in a 2011 Z06 with Bose Speakers. I know I will need a PAC RP5-GM11 wiring interface to retain my steering wheel controls and a Metra 40-GM10 antenna adapter. I purchased an aftermarket back up camera by Natika WD-011. I’ve read several suggestions on line which hasn’t worked. (The main problem is the rear camera comes on when in reverse but no picture just lines In the back.) I connected the red wire to the light green wire behind the passenger right tail light and the black wire I grounded to a chassis bolt. Then ran the red wire and black wire to the front where the head unit is located. At the head unit I connected the yellow cable to the yellow camera input adapter. Then the red wire connected to the orange/white wire from the Crux 17C. Additional: when I have my ignition on Accessory and shifted into Reverse, my back up lights aren’t coming on but if I start it and put it in reverse the backup lights work. What am I doing wrong? Thanks

Did you buy from crutchfield? Thay have great customer service and can probley talk you thru the issue. If not try the audio section of the forum there is a lot of knowledge there also. Good luck
Please post what you find as i am installing the Alpine ILX-507 wiht the pac unit this weekend witha backup cam.
You should either have the red wire connected to the green wire at the tail light and to the orange/white wire on the Alpine unit. I do not see an orange/white wire listed in the Crux unit wiring diagram.
OR
Connect the violet/white wire from the Crux unit to the orange/white wire on the Alpine unit
Thanks for everyone’s suggestions, I got everything hooked up finally and it actually works 😊. What I ended having to do was I hooked the red wire at the taillights to the light green wire and at the head unit i hooked the red wire from the camera to the Orange/White wire but the connection that made everything work was when I grounded the Alpine unit itself to the black wire coming off of the Camera Input from the head unit. As far as the reverse light not working that was operator error. I found if you hold the engine start button in first 10-15 seconds with your foot off the pedals the System come on without starting the engine and you can shift into reverse and the reverse light works etc. Thanks again
