Replacement backup monitor


Ronbo

Recommended Posts

I had a system from Leviathon in my truck. The monitor started acting up. Instead of messing with it, I decided to replace it. I searched for a similar system and found one on eBay. It also has a slot for a SD card. The price seemed reasonable for 2 more cameras and a 9inch monitor.

Ronbo    Are you replacing the whole system?  I like the 4 camera system with the recorder. Do you know anyone who has used that system or are you going to try it?  I'll be watching. Hope everything works out.   Pat

I am using my existing 2 cameras and will plug them into the new wiring u dear the dash. The old system had 2 cables connected to the monitor, the new ha only 1. The difference is that the power is incorporated in the single cable. I also went with a 9 in monitor and recorder vs a 7 inch and no record. I will get it installed this week and will include an update. The 2 additional cameras I will use for lane change cameras, but won’t install them until it cools down.

Rondo, I am in the same boat you were in.  My Leviathon monitor is now dead.  I also have the multiple cables existing.  How did you address the cable issue.  I would like to avoid rerouting cables if possible.  Is the fit up the same?  Thanks.

The cable that plugs into the monitor has the power and 5 camera inputs. The connection is the 4 pin camera. I only had to run that one cable from where my camera cables are to the monitor.
