Hummer H2 For those who like a little more gleam to their Hummer, the H2 offers a similar rugged look as the H1, but as a lower cost, and with more added features, making it almost a massive luxury SUV.

You can also do this, the diode will bypass the DTRL's to be on in auto mode and also on with the headlights. You'll need a 12 volt 1 amp diode. I bought a 10 pack on ebay for 2 dollars. Solder the diode to a 20-22 gauge solid wire, mark the wire end that matches the silver diode ring, heat shrink over the diode. When you install the diode jumper into the fuse box look at where you marked the wire and make sure the silver ring (cathode) is pointing toward the upper relay, PRK Relay 86. Pull the 10amp DTRL relay fuse and the Park Lamps 10amp fuse as well. Pull both relays, set them to the side in the same orientation that you took them out. Insert the wire into the respective slots, install relays over top of jumper wire. install fuses. Done.

Yes. Make sure the center conductor of that red coax is not touching the ground shield. That red wire is a very small coax that has a center conductor wrapped around an insulated center conductor. The center conductor is very thin. Did you get the monitor to light up? Strip back the other two coaxes that are foil wrapped so we can see what color they are. From the rca you take the center conductor and connect to center conductor of the coax of monitor cable and then take the ground shield and connect it to ground shield. If monitor lights up make sure it’s on video 1.

If it’s black and white either your connection is not good, the yellow RCA cable you are using is bad (which is very common) or your source video is not good or not set properly. Try another video source.

Are you testing with one monitor on or both on at same time? Where are you located?
