Why is there no video signal in the reversing camera?
2 Answers
The reversing camera displays no signal due to poor line contact. It is necessary to promptly check the wiring and the connection points of the vehicle installation to see if there is any loose connection. It may also be because the video power cord has aged, and a new power cord can be replaced. If the issue is resolved, it indicates that the video power cord is the problem. Below is relevant information: Reversing Camera: The reversing camera, also known as a parking assist system, or reversing visual system, vehicle monitoring system, etc. Function: This system provides a more intuitive and clear view of the situation behind the vehicle when reversing, making it one of the very practical configurations for reversing safety. When the reverse gear is engaged, the system automatically activates the high-definition reversing camera located at the rear of the vehicle, displaying the rear situation clearly on the reversing LCD screen, allowing for an accurate grasp of the road conditions behind.
I've encountered the issue of no signal from the rearview camera several times. The most common cause is a dirty or mud-covered camera lens, which can usually be fixed by wiping it clean. Check if the camera cable is broken or loose; frequent opening and closing of the tailgate can lead to wire wear. If the display isn't lighting up, try restarting the car or resetting the system. Sometimes, system software updates can introduce bugs that cause display abnormalities. Moisture entering the trunk can also cause short circuits. Personally, I use a spare camera to test and identify the source of the problem. Lastly, I recommend not forcing the reverse gear; stop and check for safety first. Regular maintenance of the camera to keep it clean is essential, and avoiding parking too close to walls can reduce damage. These small tips can save you time.
