Troubleshooting A Furrion Camera System That Switches To Side Cameras When The Brakes Are Applied
Question:
I have the Furion system and manually all the cameras are in the correct position but when I brake it shows the side camera instead of rear.

Based on what you're describing the side cameras of your Furrion Vision S Wireless RV Backup Camera System w/ 3 Cameras # FCE48TASL-05 will do this for one of two reasons. You could possibly have the turn signal wire of the camera spliced into the brake light circuit, which triggers the side cameras to take over the monitor when the wire gets power.
You could also have auto display turned on and the side camera was the last one paired to the system so it's reverting back to that camera after the allotted time. You can unpair the rear camera and then pair it again to have it be the last one connected to the monitor or just turn the auto display and LCD auto settings both off.
Since it's happening when you brake I'd say it's most likely that the turn signal wire is spliced to the brake/stop light circuit and you'll just need to disconnect and cap it off.

I have the same problem with my cameras. Same exact system but when I took off my left turn signal my right turn signal yellow wires. The cameras did not activate when I turned on my left and right turn signals. What is the alternative to this?

Isn't the left turn wire also the brake wire from the truck? How would you disconnect this?
