Mygig lockpick and camera
Do I need a " lockpick" to install a rear backup camera? Im not interested that the camera works when in forward motion, just for it to work when the jeep is in reverse? I have looked everywhere and can't seem to find the answer.

I don't know if you "need" one, but I have a lockpick and you can definitely add the backup camera feature to the system when in reverse. I'm not sure the factory MyGIG has a stand alone reverse camera input. Maybe certain models do?

Apparently you can hardwire a camera to certain MyGig models, but you'll need the dealership to activate the feature using a StarScan.

If you have a lockpick and the back up camera you will not need the stealership to activate the camera function.
I have that set up and remember not to have them do anything. I believe the directions will tell you how to activate your camera through the set up section on the MyGig.

This is from the Website that we (MyGig Owners) have been Tied to since 2007....
Q: Can I connect a backup camera to the MyGIG radio if I purchased it without a camera?
A: Not by default but yes. The MyGIG radio detects that the vehicle is equipped with a backup camera. It then
activates the user menu to automatically enable or disable the back up camera when the vehicle is in reverse. The
production software does not allow operation of an aftermarket backup camera nor does it allow any other video
source to be added to the MyGIG display because these products do not change the vehicle configuration
message. However you can add a MyGIG LockPick or ALLGIG-USB module that will allow the connection of a
backup camera and your vehicle will function as if it has a factory camera installed.
