Chad A Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 I have been going through the dash, what a pain, trying to find out what all the loose cords are in there before I install my new stereo head unit. I came across this and have no idea what it is supposed to do. It has 3 wires going into it from the Infrared Sensor located on the middle dash. It has an RGB in from who knows where and an RCA that is hooked to nothing in the video out 1. I have hooked that up to a tv and there is nothing on the screen. Any ideas?

Dwight Lindsey Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Looks like a video splitter of sorts. There's a new old stock for sale on ebay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Mito-Corp-RGB-NTSC-Controller-/401864806330 It seems to take a signal on a coax and convert it to NTSC (standard definition video) on RCA cables Dwight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harvey Babb Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 It's an rgb to composite video converter. I'm guessing that the IR remote selected which input/output ports were used. Probably was used to feed high quality video from a game or a vcr to the tv. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivan K Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 I had similar converter interfacing rear Panasonic camera's multi pin connector to the old Panasonic display. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vito.a Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 I think it converts the Aladdin display video to NTSC so you can display it on your TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chad A Posted March 1, 2021 Author Share Posted March 1, 2021 HMM. Any idea what the Infrared is for? I have it pointed out in the dash layout in the wiring book but when it gets time to look at the back of the panel in the book it no longer has it in there. I am thinking that VCR or the Panasonic might be the best bet. The Alladin does not go through it, and I have video from my cameras. I am thinking I am just going to take it out. Any idea why the Panasonic head unit would be grounded to a screw in this thing? Sorry for all the questions, I am getting deeper into a simple project than I ever intended. The wife asked if she should even come in and look at what I was doing or not and I had to hesitate. She saw it, gave the look of "what have you gotten yourself into" and then walked away.

Admirial RVr Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 I agree. My rear and side cameras are connected to a device very similar to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodylmiller Posted July 5, 2021 Share Posted July 5, 2021 I agree that it is quite the adventure to take a look at what all is in the mess of wires and other things in the dash. This was not under the dash but, while installing new headlights I find splices inside the black wire looms where the wire colors were changed. The wiring is bad enough as it is without hiding splices and wire color changes. Woody Miller 09 Dynasty Regal IV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
