madsonp Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 Disconnect your reverse sensing wire, if it shuts off, I'd say you connected to the wrong wire. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jeffry1970 Posted December 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 i tried that and it still does it.as soon as i activate the rear view camera... very strange. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
madsonp Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 Did you try resetting your unit? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jeffry1970 Posted December 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 tried that,same thing.as soon as it turns on it goes right to rear cameraview.eventually after pushing the button over and over it will let me get to the map and then navigate to the settings to turn the camera off. very strange. could it be because im not using the pioneer camera?

teksimian Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 I'm having the exact same problem! I hooked up a camera to the rear view camera, and now it's stuck in there! the menu or map buttons don't work. If I go into test mode now, I can't close the huge "OK" popup. It just turns the taskbar green, and gets stuck like that. The same cam worked fine with Video in. It worked well for a while as a rearview cam, but now the unit is messed up.

danielwesley Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 I had that problem, and I don't even have a camera hooked up. My unit just restarted for no reason while driving from New Brunswick to Nova Scotia. Had to button-mash until it got to the main screen and I disabled the camera in the settings. Hasn't happened again since. I don't think this limited to just the camera.... definitely an issue with the unit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
teksimian Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 Yeah, this was caused by a grounding problem. I have a "bad" ground somewhere behind the deck. touching it against the deck enabled the map/menu buttons. afterwards, undoing a change I had made under "back camera"->polarity GND/Battery resolved the issue. Best of luck. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
