Do you have the audio out from the SmartView module connected to your aux in jack under the arm rest?

I opted to do it differently though. I decided to plug the SmartView cables (including audio) into the multimedia box for the rear camera retrofit. I then used the audio outs of the multimedia box to connect to the aux in under the arm rest. Doing it this way will allow me to utilize the other A/V inputs on the multimedia box to send their audio signal through the aux in of the car. And this is a stupid point but I'm putting it out there, make sure you switch your audio input under media to use the aux in.
