Bespoke A/V Hidden Option

This method will enable the A/V feature on your BeSpoke system .It replaces the "AUX" input from the sources screen to "A/V".
Useful for a DVD player, media player or whatever you want; I am doing this to add my MK812 android mini-pc to my stock car stereo. I will do a separate DIY for that to keep this simple.
If you already installed a reverse/backup camera, then this should be real easy to do.

REQUIRED:
1 - Female RCA connector
1 - SPST (ON/OFF) Switch for the Vehicle Speed Sensing (VSS)
Some spare wiring

*Optional: If you don't want to insert the wires in the 16pin and 28pin socket, you can use the connectors from an old CD player or floppy drive power supply connector. Better yet, but a Toyota 28 pin harness from Wal-Mart/BestBuy/car stereo place and cannibalize from there.

Below is a simple diagram outlining what you need to follow.

1) Cut the ADPG wire in slot 25 (This detects input from the AUX) from the 28-pin harness and connect it to the ground.
2) Insert a wire/connector in the 6th slot (Parking brake bypass) of the 16-pin harness then tap that to the wire from slot 25 in the 28-pin harness.
3) Cut the pink/green wire in slot 17 (VSS) and install a switch in between. This will allow you to continue watching the video while moving. Optional and I am not responsible if you get in an accident.
4) Insert the positive/red wire from the female RCA connector into slot 13 of the 28-pin harness.
5) Insert the negative/black wire from the female RCA connector into slot 14 or connect it to the ground tap in slot 25 in the 28-pin harness.

You can stop at this point if all you need is a video input since you can still connect to the AUX port in the by the USB slot.

Optional -
(6) Tap the slot 28 (Left+), 27 (GND) and 26 (Right+) and connect it to a pair of female audio connectors
(7) Use a relay to separate/switch if you want to retain the function of the front AUX connector.

When selecting sources, the “AUX” will now show as “A/V”.

Reinstall your head unit and enjoy!

Sorry if the pic is misleading, I replaced it with a gif file.

Image you see is from a camcorder/rca out I used to test the connection. This is separate from my backup camera.

The input can be used for dvd player etc...

This method replaces the aux source to a/v and enables the features in the pixs.

It still works the same except instead of "AUX" you will see "A/V". This adds another video input besides the backup camera.

Notice the screen doesn't have the "check your surrounding" warning.

AUX? I don't have AUX. On the second Source screen, it looks like you have AUX and SAT; mine shows CD and BT. Are there different Bespoke firmwares/operating systems?

btw if you have pics of your wiring, please post them! I'm somewhat of a visual learner.

I'm sorry, I don't understand what you're trying to say.

The OP says "AUX" becomes "A/V". Well, I don't have "AUX" in the first place...nor do I have "USB" either. My second page is CD and BT, and my first page is this:



Another thing is that I remember reading in the Bespoke manual that if you have Bespoke, the 3.5mm headphone jack cannot be used on its own...only with an iPod connected with a USB + analog cable.
