This guide explains how to add front and side cameras to an Audi A6 C6 equipped with an aftermarket Android head unit, using a 4-in-1 video signal splitter.

🔌 Splitter & Relay Wiring:

The video splitter is the core of this system, managing the inputs from all cameras.

  • Video Output: Connect the splitter's main video out to the Android head unit's camera input (RCA).
  • Reverse Trigger: The splitter's 'REVERSE' trigger wire connects to the head unit's reverse signal wire.
  • Power: The splitter can be powered by a 12V ACC source from the fuse box.

💡 Front Camera Relay (Triggered by Brake Lights):

  • Pin 30: +12V from fuse box
  • Pin 86: Ground
  • Pin 85: Brake light signal
  • Pin 87: +12V output to front camera

⚙️ Important Configuration Notes:

  • Mirrored Views: A standard reverse camera will show a mirrored image. If your splitter mirrors all inputs, you may need front/side cameras that can have their mirroring disabled (often by cutting a small wire loop).
  • Parking Lines: The Android head unit will likely overlay parking lines on all camera feeds. It's best to disable this feature in the head unit's settings and use cameras with built-in (or no) lines.
