Hi FOlks,
This foil or aluminium lined sheath is used in Toyota's to cover the wires running from the Reverse camera to a connector at the front of the vehcile. The sheath starts a little bit after the camera. As far as I can tell, there are four wires and one wire with no insulation running inside the sheathing the other wisres are in. I've attached an image that shows the Red, Green, White and Black wires, the stripped wire and the sheathing that covers it all. Does anybody know where I can get that foil lined sheathing? What is the purpose of the stripped wire? I am presumming it ran the full length of the AV cable, but wasn't connected to anything on either end.
I was going to build my own repalcement wires, wrap them in tin foil, and the cover them with shrink wrap like in the image attached. Would that work?
