Familyman03 Posted February 8, 2020 Report Share Posted February 8, 2020 I have a 2013 journey and lucky few to get a oem camera and bezel from the local junkyard for $50. But when I went to install it I did not have the big connections to hook the camera just the small one that hooks to the tailgate. I called around to the dealership to get the harness ordered. But was told that I would have to order the camera in order to get the harness. Do anyone know the part number just for the harness or if I could get a jumper the add in??

2late4u Posted February 8, 2020 Report Share Posted February 8, 2020 nope i just had mine done at the dealership yrs ago you will have to have the dealership add the sales code as well to make it work... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bramfrank Posted February 8, 2020 Report Share Posted February 8, 2020 The harness was included with the kit in the early models of the OEM accessory. In 2014 the cable was integrated into wire harness for all vehicles. For that you need the kit with the harness and there is no part number on the callout sheet of the installation instructions - for that matter I was unable to locate the rear connector for the camera on my 2014 when I installed my own. Here is a link to the installation instructions for the kit you need: https://moparonlineparts.com/docs/82212553.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Familyman03 Posted February 8, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2020 So I would still have to buy a new camera kit in order to get the harness? And once I get that harness do I have to completely take the factory wires out or do it just get tied in together? It sucks because there is not one video showing how to do it everyone just she the finished product. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bramfrank Posted February 8, 2020 Report Share Posted February 8, 2020 My vehicle was/is supposed to have the pre-installed harness - I couldn't find the connector if it was. I ran the wire from the stern to dash and had the dealer make the connection when I brought it in to have the sales code added - he agreed to a price of 1 hours' labour for both (which is apparently the shop minimum anyway). So, yes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Familyman03 Posted February 21, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2020 Ok I finally was able to get the camera set up. I was thinking that you could just get a jumper like you can on the charger and challenger. But I had to replace the whole tail gate harness luckily it wasn’t that bad of a job. Plus I couldn’t complain to much since I was able to get it for $30 when the dealership was wanting $150+! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armando G Posted February 24, 2020 Report Share Posted February 24, 2020 Did you make a video for everyone? I hear that would help others. Glad that worked out for you... and it was relatively cheap. Did you have to get the sales code added at the dealer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
