What are the solutions for a blurry reversing camera?

The solutions for a blurry reversing camera are: 1. If the camera lens is covered with dust or dirt, simply clean it with a dry cloth; 2. If the blurriness is caused by water ingress, use a hot air blower to blow on the camera for a few minutes; 3. If the blurriness is due to the brightness and contrast settings of the central control display, adjust these settings in the vehicle's system until the reversing image becomes clear. The reversing camera, also known as a parking assist system, or reversing visual system, or onboard monitoring system, is widely used in various large, medium, and small vehicles for reversing or driving safety assistance.
I've been driving for half my life and encountered many cases of blurry reversing cameras. This is mostly caused by dirty lens surfaces or improper installation positions. You can use a soft cloth dipped in glass cleaner or alcohol to carefully wipe the lens, avoiding hard objects to prevent scratches. If it gets even blurrier on rainy or foggy days, wait for better weather or consider relocating the camera to ensure it's not blocked by the rear wiper. For persistent blurriness, check if the wiring connections are loose, as this can easily cause signal interference. If necessary, reconnect the plugs. If the problem persists, the camera might be aging or have low resolution, requiring a professional replacement—remember to choose a high-definition model and not just go for the cheapest option. Usually, try to park away from dusty areas and perform regular cleaning and maintenance to minimize issues.
