Slow Reverse Camera Display


Recommended Posts

Ok, after a closer look it isn't the reverse camera that is slow, its the deck itself that is slow to power up.  When I start my car, it takes about 10 seconds for the front panel buttons on the deck to illuminate, after which I see the Pioneer logo and my reverse cam shows up a few seconds later.  I have a Sirius XM tuner and a PAC steering wheel remote adaptor attached to the head unit.  I wonder if these add ons could be slowing down the boot?

I have the Maestro SW module for my steering wheel controls and I have the xm tuner as well. Should not cause your radio to take 10 seconds to begin the booting process.

 

As to the "sluggish" reverse video comment... do you have the grid lines turned on while in reverse? If so, turn them off and see if the video is still sluggish. If I turn off the reverse grid, my video is normal. But like you said, it's not enough to worry about and I prefer the grid lines so I just deal with it.

I don't have the parking assistant guide enabled. This is odd, what the heck is causing mine to take forever to light up and boot? I may have to make a YouTube video and post it so you guys don't think I'm BS'ing.

:-) no one thinks you're BSing. I think that if something is wrong with your radio, you should return it for a new one.

I turned the grid lines off. I used the existing camera that was installed with my Z2. The camera is just old which could be the issue. It worked and I didn't see enough issue to replace it. Unless there is some wide angle HD camera which I'd hate to hear about $$$$$
