What causes the reversing camera screen to turn white?
2 Answers
Possible reasons include poor line contact and aging wires. Below are some related introductions about reversing: 1. Precautions: Whether you are a novice or an experienced driver, this is a must-notice point. Not only should you avoid pressing the accelerator while reversing, but you should also avoid half-pressing the brake. Especially for novices, the speed should be slower than idle speed. This allows more time to observe the surrounding environment. 2. Basic essentials: When parking in a parking lot, first, visually estimate the width of the parking space, check for any obstacles behind, whether there are vehicles parked on both sides, and whether the length is suitable for your vehicle model. If visibility is poor at night, step out to observe the exact position before reversing.
The other day when I was reversing, I also encountered a white screen issue, which left me quite confused. I carefully checked the fuses in the fuse box to see if any had blown. I replaced one with a new one, and it worked fine. If it still doesn't work, it might be due to a loose or short-circuited camera connection wire. I gently wiped the camera lens with a tissue, but the screen remained white. Additionally, problems with the car's infotainment system software can also cause this. Try restarting the car; sometimes that can restore normal function. I recommend starting with the simplest solutions first and avoiding disassembling things yourself to prevent damaging the wiring. If all else fails, take it to a professional repair shop for inspection—after all, reversing safety is crucial, and it's not worth taking risks to save money. White screen issues are usually not complicated, but addressing them promptly is important to prevent minor problems from escalating.
