Hey guys,

I've been trying to follow the wiring diagrams here to get my 2016 OEM reverse camera working with my Pioneer AVH-X8500BHS head unit.

I've got the reverse signal working properly to put the HU into "camera mode", but there's no video signal and I suspect it's because the camera isn't being powered.

I've purchased an NTE962 6v voltage regulator from my local electronics shop in hopes that it's a proper substitute for the L7806 mentioned earlier in this thread... if not please let me know.

I've spliced the V-in (pin 1) of the regulator to the red 12V power wire on the main harness and run the V-O 6V output to pin 11 of the 28 pin harness. I then ran the ground pin from the regulator (pin 2) to Pin 20 of the 28 pin harness.

When I test the output of the regulator, both the input and output pins are measuring 12.93V... I don't understand why. I also don't have a background in electronics engineering so any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Also, what do I use to convert the OEM usb port into something I can plug into my headunit? The AX-TOYUSB does not match up with any OEM harness in my 2016 car.
