Yep, this is one of the best upgrades I've done.
Agree as well. Even with the extra hoops the '19 and '20 owners have to jump through to make this work, I still think it is worth adding. The improved visibility is amazing. I don't think I'll ever own another vehicle without this option.
Did the used ‘22 BCM come with the wire harness to loop it into the system? I have been following this thread and really want to do this upgrade to my ‘20 Limited
It did not come with the wiring. PM Jimmy07 for the custom cable. Him and others put a lot of time into figuring it out for 19-20 owners.

Vincent, what is the possibility, in your opinion, of installing a switch in the facra cable for a cable from the HMSL camera and the backup camera to allow one or the other to show on the UConnect screen for use as a cargo camera when wanted and backup the rest of the time. Found a switch(ACV Fakra Rear View Camera Video Switch 2 Fakra In+1 Out + Fakra ISO Adaptor : Amazon.co.uk: Automotive) and both cameras are facra. Just need to realign the CMSL camera down to the bed for hooking up my fifth wheel.I created a how to on this.
HOW TO: Add Digital Rearview Mirror
Here are the instructions for installing the digital rearview mirror in the RAM. Part List: Mirror with 1 Video Input Channel, no FCW or ACC - 68448639AB Mirror with 1 Video Input Channel, with FCW or ACC - 68448641AB Mirror with 2 Video Input Channel, no FCW or ACC - 68519111AA Mirror with...
That won’t work because the radio isn’t capable of displaying the image from the camera used in the CHMSL.
Even if they both have the facra connection?
It's not like the old days of just plugging in a cable. The cameras are digital and communicate differently.
Yes, the connection type is meaningless. They are different digital cameras completely. The radio can’t display the DRVM camera’s image, and the DRVM can’t display the backup camera’s image.
Odd. I would think that a digital camera is a digital camera. I have the HMSL with the rearview camera, so I might just hook it up at the tailgate to verify, and might have to get another tailgate/backup camera and mount it into the CMSL cargo camera spot. Seems I saw where someone did that somewhere else. Just a hole saw and epoxy.
Ok, have at it, but my responses are not guesses. I’ve been down that road of testing already.
Can an analog camera be used with the 12" UConnect?
