Wiring in the 2 ecu's that are controlled from the keypads on the console


I can't wait till I can start putting stuff back together. It seems like the more we do the more we take apart, but that's the fun of making something from nothing.

The part you don't see is the DVR. I forgot pictures of it, but pictures will follow
I decided to make a harness for all the switches in the OH console. I ran one 12 gauge wire for power and a ground. Then soldered and wired each switch. I used (2) 5 wire cables to use as trigger wires to run to all of the accessories that will need to be switched. I should never have to pull anything apart in the roof area to add anything from now on .



This is just a pic of all the switches being tested


Of the 9 switches in the console 5 are already dedicated off-road light and The Baja Camera System.

Today is camera install day part 2
Here is a rock spotting camera located on the front drivers side. The passenger side has the same


I drilled a 1" hole angled down and painted the exposed edge. The camera's have brackets that are epoxied in place


Approach angle camera


Here is the departure camera or backup cam




Rear axle cam protected buy my skids and with clear view of the dif and inner tires


Quad channel DVR with GPS tracking and alarm mode


Here is the wiring finalized. It will not move or show after the headliner is installed. We still have to test the whole system before the headliner goes up just in case..


Here are the 2 ecu's wired and ready for testing. I am going to make a wire keeper for the top of this where all the wires that come out of the ecu's will so have support above them so they won't wiggle out. Testing mode doesn't require neat appearance til I know its right



As part of my Camera mod I have had to relocate a few things
This is a picture of the way my GPS was mounted before the Camera Mod


Since this is close to the configuration I am dealing with now the GPS needed a new home
