Why does the New Bora suddenly lose its reversing camera?

[Reyes]

The reasons why the New Bora suddenly loses its reversing camera are as follows: 1. If the reversing camera screen turns black, it is most likely due to poor line contact. It is necessary to promptly check the wiring and the connection points where the lines are installed in the vehicle to see if there are any loose connections. If there are, it will cause abnormal imaging of the reversing camera. In this case, simply reconnecting them properly will resolve the issue. 2. The reversing camera has been used for too long: This can lead to poor chip photosensitivity and may even result in a snowy screen. It requires inspection and repair at a maintenance shop or direct replacement.

It can be really frustrating when the reversing camera suddenly stops working. I've encountered this issue a few times. First, check if the camera is damaged by mud or water, as it's exposed at the rear of the car and prone to contamination. Next, inspect whether the cables are loose or worn out, especially the section connected to the screen. Sometimes, the system software might freeze, and simply turning off and restarting the car could restore it. A blown fuse is also a common cause; you can replace it with a spare one from the fuse box. If none of these solutions work, it's best to take it to a professional shop for a circuit check with a diagnostic tool or a software update. After parking, regularly clean the camera area to prevent dust buildup and potential malfunctions. Keeping up with routine system checks can help minimize such unexpected issues.

I remember the last time I reversed my new Bora, the camera screen went black, which was a bit unnerving. First, open the trunk to check if the camera is dirty and give it a wipe; loose connectors can cause poor contact, so gently press the connection port. Then check the fuses—the box is near the steering wheel, and look for the one labeled CAM. Rebooting the system often works—turn off the engine, wait a few minutes, and restart. Software glitches happen occasionally, so updating the car’s firmware should fix it. Never force anything—safety first. I recommend keeping a spare camera in the car; they’re cheap to buy online. Don’t neglect the rear details when washing the car, and a lens protector can prevent scratches. Address issues promptly to avoid hitting something while reversing—costly and risky.
