Find the camera feed into the dash display monitor. you could split that video input and route it to the TV. You'll have to see if the video input is separate from the power leads to the camera. (some use a 4 conductor wire from the dash monitor to the camera) If it is separate, then find matching plugs, male and female, on cords that can reach from the dash to the TV. Many cameras don't work at a very good resolution for 'blowing up' to TV screen size. If the TV is visible from the driver's seat, it is illegal to have it on while driving.

Wonder if that will work now...our GPS will not display (nothing displays) on the front TV until the brake is off and the coach is in gear. Getting the camera to the top screen might not be enough now - it might have to be a direct wire to show it on the TV.

Linda, I did see a post on the 19's and it was different, but until I can play with it or ask on the PDI, I am not sure of the procedure. Maybe someone with a 19 can chime in.
This might be what I remember seeing.

I can get the GPS up on the front screen like you say....and I can get the radio station screen, Ipod, Media..............but no camera......even though it show on both the top and bottom Xcite screens............bummer.......sure would be nice for a security monitor in the bedroom through the HDMI selector.

Linda, in our ‘17 the forward overhead TV was plugged into a box, which was in turn plugged into a receptacle within the righ hand overhead cabinet.

This box is linked to the parking brake.

Remove the box, plug directly into the receptacle, and voila’!

Thanks...I think I did that before I even tried to make the connection - had done the same in our 13 and in the 17...in those we couldn't get it to work at all without switching the plug. This one doesn't seem to work the same - but I'll check it one more time tomorrow and double check that I wasn't dreaming about moving the plug. It's been known to happen...more frequently the older I get! [emoji6]

There was a post month or so ago about putting radio in house mode using remote or something to that affect to get camera on front tv, but I don't recall exactly how to do it. Should have written it down.

One thing to add you have to use mode on the remote to make a selection, otherwise that works fine. Thanks, I'll keep it this time.

Where are you staying that you are that concerned about outside security?
