Why does the reversing camera of Haval H6 not start?
3 Answers
There are several reasons why the reversing camera of Haval H6 does not start: Fuse in the fuse box is blown: Check the fuse in the No.1 fuse box and find that the 30A fuse for the audio and entertainment system is blown. After replacing it with the original spare fuse, the fuse immediately blows again. After removing the blown fuse, measure the voltage of the left socket of the fuse holder, which is 12V, and check the conduction state between the right socket and the vehicle body ground. DC-DC converter failure: After opening the shell of the DC-DC converter, severe corrosion is found inside. After replacing the DC-DC converter and removing and drying the floor carpet, the multimedia host and reversing camera can work normally, and the fault is eliminated.
I've encountered the issue of the Haval H6's reversing camera malfunctioning, and there are quite a few common causes. The primary suspect is the camera lens being blocked by mud or rainwater, especially after rainy days when the display doesn't show anything. When shifting into reverse, first check if the reversing lights come on. If the lights don't illuminate, it might be due to a faulty reverse trigger switch or a blown fuse—this can be found in the engine compartment's fuse box; try replacing it with a new one. I've taken apart the rear bumper a few times to inspect the wiring and found that loose wire connectors are quite common, especially due to prolonged bumps causing the plugs to come loose. Simply reinserting them tightly can often solve the problem. If the display still doesn't respond, the camera itself might be damaged or have suffered an impact, requiring a replacement. Occasionally, the Haval system needs a reset—try disconnecting the battery's negative terminal for a few minutes and then reconnecting it to reset. Don’t overlook whether the screen settings might have been accidentally turned off; go into the menu to confirm that the reversing assist function is enabled. If simple troubleshooting doesn’t resolve the issue, take it to a professional repair shop as soon as possible—don’t mess around and compromise driving safety.
I'm quite worried when the reversing camera of my Haval H6 doesn't work. Camera issues often stem from dirty or aging lenses, so remember to wipe the lens after parking to prevent dust and water accumulation. Try shifting into reverse gear to see if you hear a clicking sound from the switch; if there's no sound, the switch might be faulty and need replacement. Wiring connectors inside the car or trunk can easily loosen—check the wiring harness for any exposed wires or poor connections. I've encountered cases where dampness from rainy days caused short circuits and malfunctions. Blown fuses are common; locate the one corresponding to the reversing camera in the fuse box and replace it. Don’t rule out display issues either—try switching to another media source, like playing music or watching TV, to see if it works. If other functions are fine, then focus on reversing-related components. Start with simple steps like cleaning and resetting the system. If that doesn’t help, visit a 4S shop—they have the right tools for quick diagnostics. Stay patient and use the rearview mirror to compensate for the lack of camera vision.
