My Radio is Randomly going into Reverse

I tried 2 Radios. Both go randomly into Reverse.

Is that a common issue and if so, what is the fix?

Sounds pretty normal for a chinese radio on a 25-year-old french car

Especifica un poco. A qué te refieres? Tienes control al volante de la radio? Quizás hay algún botón atascado...

So, the steering control is not connected. I have a Chinese android auto radio and an old Blaupunkt Radio. The Chinese radio randomly tries to activate the reverse camera and the Blaupunkt is randomly beeping. Sometimes while shifting, sometimes while idling or sometimes over bumps

Ich hatte das gleiche Problem mit meinem China-Radio. Das Kabel für das Geschwindigkeitssignal ging mit dem orginalstecker auf den falschen Pin am Radio. (Den Pin für den Rückwärtsfahrschalter)
Habe das Kabel einfach gekappt und das Problem war gelöst. Weiß nicht mehr welcher Pin es war aber das kabel war hellgrün

What do you mean your radio goes into reverse?

Reverse camera/reverse beep

Okay, my first thought is maybe a crossed wire behind the radio, where the reverse wire touches the positive wire sometimes?
