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?

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.

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.

Is it a setting or should I pickup a new reverse camera ?

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.
