ngng Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 When I turn my car on the head unit will enter "camera mode" with the timer and close button, this is the same mode you can select from the A/V sources and I believe it is different from the reverse camera input mode. I have correctly wired my backup camera and it works when I reverse, but this issue is stumping me. Videos online have shown an actual camera setting for "Camera Mode" with an ON/OFF toggle but my head unit does not have this option under camera settings. I've done a factory reset and I have flashed the latest firmware but the issue still persists. I thought I could live with it, but having to hit the X button every single time I start my car is wearing on me. Has anybody encountered this? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Trigger was set for battery, not ground on the head unit. Is that incorrect? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bonee Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 Yes now press and hold the one key on the radio to make sure it's on set to camera on at all times Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That's the opposite of what I want. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bonee Posted August 20, 2019 Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 It's the same process to turn it off. If it's not that I would check all connections. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ngng Posted August 20, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2019 Looks like it only happens when Android Auto is plugged in. I've got a short video I will upload. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ngng Posted August 26, 2019 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2019 Took the dash apart to snap some photos. Unplugged the headunit so I could get a better photo. After I plugged everything back together I have not had the problem anymore. Very odd...no idea. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
