How to Adjust a Reversed Rearview Camera Image?
3 Answers
To adjust a reversed rearview camera image, re-engage the reverse gear. Locate the rearview camera settings button in the system, find the mirror adjustment or reverse mirror function, make the necessary adjustments, and then close the settings. Below are detailed introductions about the rearview camera: 1. Definition: The rearview camera, also known as the parking assist system, reverse visual system, or onboard monitoring system (English name: vehicle-backup-camera), is widely used in various large, medium, and small vehicles for reversing or driving safety assistance. 2. Features: The rearview camera system allows viewing the rear road at night via infrared. Professional vehicle-mounted probes offer enhanced anti-magnetic, shockproof, waterproof, and dustproof performance. The onboard display uses TFT true color with anti-magnetic treatment to eliminate signal interference and flickering. It can simultaneously receive two video inputs, play VCDs and DVDs without a decoder, and features automatic horizontal switching and automatic on/off functions for reverse visibility. The dashboard or rearview mirror display clearly shows information from the rear via the vehicle-mounted camera. Additionally, installing two rearview cameras can eliminate blind spots during reversing.
Last time when my reversing camera suddenly flipped upside down, it was because the camera was installed upside down, and I fixed it myself. First, make sure to turn off the engine and park safely, then check if the camera is mounted upside down; if the camera is correctly oriented under the license plate, it might be a system setting issue in the vehicle. Get in the car, turn on the central control screen, go to the settings menu, and look for the reversing camera option—there’s usually a button to flip the image; a few clicks should restore it to normal. If you can’t figure it out, don’t worry—some older models may require a system reset at a 4S shop or professional service center. Be careful not to bump the camera when washing the car, and if it’s aftermarket, ensure the parts are compatible. The reversing camera has been a huge help for me when parking in narrow alleys.
I find it quite annoying when the reversing camera image is upside down. Once, a friend of mine noticed it while I was driving and helped me fix it. The reasons are usually related to the camera angle or a system bug. You can get out of the car and check if the camera is securely installed and not upside down. Then, start the car and look for reversing-related options in the dashboard or screen settings, and try adjusting the image orientation function. If you can't figure it out yourself, just go to a repair shop or service center—the mechanics can fix it in minutes, saving you hassle and ensuring safety. Remember to avoid parking near branches or debris in daily use to prevent camera damage, and don’t randomly adjust the settings like I did at first, which only made things worse.
