Used Aftermarket H/U… Should have bought direct

[Selyah]

Well lesson learned and now need some advice.
I just bought a Kenwood DMX5020 / connects T6 fitting kit and reversing camera locally, originally bought for a T6 install and then he crashed it.
Half of the shop price so hard to say no, was advertised as having everything in original boxes with receipts.

However, although the HU is perfect, and it also has the single wire kenwood connects lead, and the CTSVW015.2 connects lead for the steering wheel, the facia kit and aerial adapter, the camera which was stated as kenwood, is not its a road angel, and he has now admitted he lost all of the wiring digrams and manuals, yes lesson learned!

So I am trying to figure out how exactly this should be connected up.

So help with the following please:
Where does the connects kenwood single connector lead connect too?
There are 3 leads spare from the Connects box, Purple and white, Pink and Green, seen in the below pic, any idea what do these connect too?
For the Road angel Camera, do I wire it as per the Diagram below, ground the black wire by the boot, but connect the two red wires together and run the red wire built into the vga cable to the reversing camera wire on the back of the HU? or connect it as it shows to the rear reversing light, I am sure the kenwood camera uses the Connects canbus to get the feed?

Sorry for the meandering thread, just not sure where to go from here and there are no ICE specialists near me.

the purple wire goes to the purple/white on the Kenwood , it’s the reverse feed to flip the screen over when reverse is selected
the green wire connects to the green wire on the Kenwood, it’s the hand brake
pink is speed pulse not needed on the Kenwood

All you have to do with the camera, is ground the black cable and the red which is in the same plug as the black, connect this to a ignition supply , the red wire of the Kenwood should be ok,

Thanks so much, feel like a proper idiot, that all makes a lot of sense now.
One last question, what do I connect the purple "single wire Kenwood patch lead" too?
One side goes in the connects Canbus box, does the other go to the light blue HU steering wheel remote input wire?

Thanks in advance.

Yes that’s correct

Yes that’s correct

One last question, probabaly another dumb one
Do I need to use the Kenwood supplied mic and run the cable and install it, or can I use the factory mic?
I think its a bluetooth mic looking on the net as there is a disk shaped grill above my head on the drivers side?
Or in the abscence of any mic plugged in the back of the HU will it use the mic on my phone which is right in front of me anyway?

You need to use the Kenwood mic
