Point4Dave Posted June 29, 2012 Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 Had the battery out for a day while doing a CMC swap. Now with the car powered back up when I go into reverse the camera comes on like it should but the image is reversed and the guides no longer show. I can't find a setting for it anywhere, am I missing something here or is the camera on its last legs? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Point4Dave Posted July 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2012 Look for an option about Camera Polarity That has nothing to do with a reversed image. All that does is reverse the function. ie: set it to ground it will always be on except when you go in reverse. set to battery will turn on when in reverse. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NorthTron Posted July 1, 2012 Report Share Posted July 1, 2012 Oh crap. Sorry I got them mixed up. you are right. Does your camera PSU have a toggle or reverse Switch or anything that might get reset. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Point4Dave Posted November 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2012 *bump* Is it a setting or should I pickup a new reverse camera ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
azpyroguy Posted December 28, 2012 Report Share Posted December 28, 2012 This sounds like your camera... I have had my "cheaper" cameras mess with me on things such as this where video would just stop, lose grid, etc.. and then all of a sudden things would come back for no apparent reason, and the only common denominator that I could find was they got wet from a car wash.. even though they were supposed to be water tight. See if your camera has any jumper wires on it... a few of mine did and after uninstalling them, checking the jumper settings (remove/reintstall jumper), and reinstall the camera and the features would return.... Just a thought... otherwise you might have to get a new camera. *bump* Is it a setting or should I pickup a new reverse camera ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
