Need tail light wiring schematic
Installing backup cameras on the following Aston Martins...

2006 DB9

Can anyone tell me what color wire is positive and negative.
Thanks in advance!

you need to find dark green wire in the bundle for the trigger for the camera. You can pull the ground from anywhere.

Assuming you are asking for the reverse signal at the tail lamp? 12V+ to the G/B 12V- to the R/B

So the green/black for 12v trigger is the same for all of the cars?

For the tail lights, it's pretty much a universal standard
