What causes the black screen issue with the Roewe i6 reversing camera?
2 Answers
The reasons for the black screen issue with the Roewe i6 reversing camera are: 1. It may be a malfunction of the reversing camera system. Try restarting the central control display to check if it functions normally, then test other display functions. If other functions work properly, it can be determined that the display is functioning normally; 2. Inspect the wiring harness of the reversing camera for any signs of breakage, and also check the connections between all plugs of the reversing camera for any loose or poor connections; 3. Check if the camera is damaged. The Roewe i6 is positioned as a compact car, with body dimensions of 4671 mm in length, 1835 mm in width, and 1464 mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2715 mm.
My Roewe i6's reversing camera has gone black several times, and I found common issues often stem from camera hardware problems. For instance, the lens might be blocked by dust or mud—cleaning it thoroughly may solve the issue. The video cable is crucial; if the wiring harness gets pinched or worn inside the body, the signal may cut out. Check if the connector in the trunk is loose or corroded. Occasionally, the head unit's system software may act up—restarting the infotainment screen sometimes helps, such as by holding the power button for ten seconds to reboot. A blown fuse could also be the culprit—check the corresponding fuse in the cabin's fuse box to see if it's burned out. If the camera module itself is faulty, it may directly cause a black screen, requiring replacement. I once tried fixing it at home with spare parts, but unfamiliarity with circuits can easily lead to mistakes. For safety, it's best to have it checked at a professional shop—don't skimp on small expenses, as reversing without a camera is a major hazard. Wiping the lens during regular car washes can prevent dust buildup, making driving much safer.
