Question:
I have a 2013 Ford Explorer Basic with nothing on it. I want to install a back up camera the KSVS-8 will I have enough wire to run from the rear tail gate to the front to hook up the wiring. Then I open up the fuse box under the hood, I have plenty of open fuse slots for the power but I could not find the fuse for the back up lights. were can I tie into so when I am basking up the camera comes on. Like to be able to install this unit. I have no problem with the mirror install. thank you

The backup camera cable that comes with your K-Source Vision System, part # KSVS-8, is 18 feet long. This should be plenty of cable to hook up your backup camera at the rear of your 2013 Ford Explorer. The best way to locate the reverse light fuse in your Explorer's fuse box is to check the fuse diagram on the inside of the fuse box panel or to consult your owner's manual. When tying into the reverse light fuse and the heat ignition power source you will need two Fuse Circuit Tap Kits like # F2526.
I have included a helpful link to the wiring diagram and an installation video of the K-Source Vision System, part # KSVS-8 being installed on a 2010 Chevrolet Silverado. The vehicle is different, but the process of routing and connecting the wires will be similar.
