I thought I would vent about this stupid problem, that is far too common. If we don't complain, they wont fix it!! I have a SPH-DA02 with a backup camera, everything is wired and installed correctly, works 90% of the time until the backup camera gets stuck on and there is no way to get it off. Even in reverse, turning the car off, changing source via steerimg wheel control, pressing home etc. I have only had this deck installed for a couple of weeks, and this is the 3rd time. I know if you press the reset button 5-10 times it will go away, but so will all my settings. If I leave the car off for a 1/2 hour and go try it again, it seems goes away. Either way it is clearly a software bug, come on Pioneer lets start addressing this.

 

Regards,

the only settings you will lose is the date/time and I'm sure thats about it?

I have some custom EQ settings as well. Still not right.

Does the DA-02 have the camera icon on the main screen like the DA-100 does?  It sometimes gets touched accidentally and the icon changes from grey to blue, and will then come on randomly.  This has happened to me in the past and has been the cause of several similar complaints.

mine does this (in fact it did it yesterday)

 

i find that sticking the car in reverse and taking it back out again unsticks it quite often.
