Hey guys,

 

Reverse camera is stuck on, won't turn off.

 

Driving, locked, reversing etc it stays on - about to disconnect the battery for a while to see if that fixes it, but any suggestions in the meantime?

Unlocked car, started car, car in drive (wasn't me driving), opened boot, put stuff in boot, close boot, get in passenger seat, drive away.

 

Going into reverse gives a distorted/split camera view. Out of reverse black camera screen with the camera controls (sonar/cam) - unresponsive.

 

Battery disconnected now, will try after a couple more beers. 

 

Pulled ICC fuse and nothing changed, not sure which one the reverse cam is hooked up to.

you'd think reverse cam would be on the taillights or brake lights circuits, but I'm not sure...

 

follow this instruction to check on the wiring loom, first.

I <3 Bananas that with a prickle bush :oooh:

 

Mebbe the boot was closed too hard? 

 

Perhaps some wiggling/banging of the camera and wiring will fix it.

 

Either way at least you can enjoy your beer in the meantime.

Yeah, am tipping I hit a cable when I put the stuff in the boot.

 

Will connect the battery soon - unhook the cam if no go. 

 

Just hope the screen shuts off
