[Mobile-Portable] NAV TV / Icom IC-7000 in a Ford Super Duty

[N5WV]

Howard , I have a 2015 King Ranch Super Duty with the big LCD. But something is not right. I think when I first purchased this truck I connected my IC 7000 video out cable to the yellow RCA input jack atop the dash and still did not get a picture. And the vehicle was in park. My trucks book states that for a I Phone one must order a special cable from Apple that has both a RCA input connector and a USB connector. I am now wondering if I need a special cable ? And yes , I did the scroll down and selected AV In and the proper screen comes up showing the three RCA phono cables on the LCD . But when I get no video from my IC 7000. Hopefully I will find someone that uses the video input of a Ford Super Duty and also uses a Icom IC 7000 to let me know if the one video cable is all I need. Thanks for the help , Randy N5WV

Ooops. 
Just noticed it appears you don't have the OEM unit. Sorry.
