Installing VueSmart Backup Camera On Flagstaff Trailer Pre-Wired For Furrion Backup Camera

Question

Question:

I recently purchased a VueSmart camera from etrailer. My Flasgstaff trailer is pre-wired for a Furrion backup camera, with what appears to be a female electrical plug. Do you sell a plug/adapter that would plug into this Furrion plug and could be hardwired into my new VueSmart camera? I know that I can just cut off the Furrion plug but if I can avoid that I would like to.

Thank you for your business!

I have another option but there is currently not a pig tail harness that will plug into the Furrion pre-wired connector on your Flagstaff Trailer to install your new VueSMART RV and Trailer Backup Camera # HM34FR.

Instead of using the included butt connectors, I recommend using two of the Quick Splices # SWC502905-1 which will allow you to connect the wiring behind the Furrion connector and will not require you to cut it off as the splice will slide over the wires with the connector still attached.

Hey Bill, yes the Furrion Vision S+ #FR64AD would be a direct replacement for your current Vision S system. None of it is backwards compatible with the standard Vision S system though.

Answer 6

You will have to go with a sliding hitch to allow the trailer to make tight turns. For a trailer 8 feet wide the only bed length that's going to allow 90 degree turns without a slider is a stationary hitch. That being said you have two options.…

Hey Lorenzo. Your 2024 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 has what's called Pulse Wave Modulation, which will not provide the wireless cameras with the correct power it needs to run when connected. This is a power saving feature in newer trucks. To fix…

Hey Eric, I know you mentioned you were installing the Vision S+ camera, is the monitor as well a vision S+ monitor or is it the monitor for the old Vision S system? The 2 systems components are not compatible with each other so the camera and…
