How to Instantly Correct a Reversed Rearview Camera Display?
2 Answers
First, open the settings interface of the car navigation system and locate the 'Rearview Mirror' option, which is enabled by default. Change the status of the 'Rearview Mirror' setting to 'Off'. After turning off the 'Rearview Mirror' setting and engaging the reverse gear, you can observe that the rearview camera display has been corrected to the normal orientation.
As someone with car repair experience, I think the most common reason for a reversed backup camera display is accidental setting changes or minor system glitches. The quick fix is simple: start the vehicle, enter the settings menu on the central display, find the 'Backup Camera' or 'Display Settings' option, where there's usually an 'Image Flip' or 'Mirror Function' toggle. Just switch it from reversed to normal – the whole process takes less than 10 seconds. If that doesn't work, turn off the engine, wait a few minutes, and restart the system to let the software reset. A reversed backup camera while driving can easily lead to misjudging rear obstacles, increasing the risk of scrapes, so I recommend regularly checking that the camera mount isn't loose and cleaning the lens after rain to prevent fogging that could cause display issues. Though it's a small problem, nothing about driving safety is trivial – addressing it promptly gives peace of mind.
