Subject: Brian, the PDC car display takes over the screen Author: jcarey (moderator) : member since January, 2004 : 2445 posts Posted on: 2007-08-29 10:09:37

when the car is put into reverse, this is an ideal place to intercept the video output for the backup camera, but I am not sure if this is possible. Perhaps using a reverse logic line to switch the video out from the Idrive module would do the trick too.
Good luck.
