Silly Backup Camera Tricks

[sorphin]

I finally got into this menu on my 13 SV... no option at all for camera now.. From the Service manual, you have to use CONSULT for the cameras now. (Note: I have the 'around view' cameras).

How do I " Go into navigation system diagnostics"?
I have 1 2012 Leaf, and I can't find system diagnostics under any of the navigation menus.

Thanks Dave

Does anyone know if similar trick can be done on the 2013 LEAF S with rear camera (no navigation)?

Thanks.

Push 3 times "Map", 2 times "radio on/off", 1 time "Map".

Ditto @thongn...would like to play with this camera mode. I drove a Tesla recently, and the backup camera stays on.

Do you know if this works on a 2013 S?

do you have a "map" button? if so, try it. I would except I don't have NAV.

Does the S even have an infotainment system? I thought it just had a plain radio...

radio/ SAT/i pod so ya, compared to modern day, its just a plain radio...mine still has screen, backup camera, etc... i think that comes with charge package though but then again, a LEAF without chademo is not a viable car imm

I wish this work in my '13 -- I can get in there, but there is no "Camera" option.

Meaning you have a "Camera" option?

Guys,
Do you know if there's a similar trick for a '15 S with a backup camera? Since my car doesn't have nav, there's no obvious equivalent button.

I have 13 with backup camera but no NAV so there is literally no options at all for me other than a few audio adjustments

Ok, I figured it out. Power on the car, power off the radio. Hold down the "1" preset button while scrolling the volume button in either direction for about 40 clicks, then click in the opposite direction for a couple of clicks. Voila, you are in the diagnostic screen. Scroll through the options using the settings knob and button, you'll see the camera button. Make sure you don't mess with the lines settings.

Only thing that sucks about it is that you can't have that on while the radio is on. Oh well...

Bummer, I like the idea, but none of these methods work on the 2015 SL. I can get to the Confirmation/Adjustment screen by pressing the Map and Radio On/Off buttons, but the Camera options are not shown. I do like the "Camera" button that activates the cameras when moving under 6 mph.

Yep, you too can keep your backup camera displayed for your whole trip!

1) Go into navigation system diagnostics (turn off radio, press Map three times, Radio Power two times, Map once).
2) Select Confirmation/Adjustment.
3) Select Camera.
4) Select Correct Draw Line of Rear view Camera.
5) Drive!
6) Press Back when you're done goofing around!

Hi… DFQ for you. I have a 2015 Leaf with the surround camera. Do not see the Camera option in the diagnostics menu. Any thoughts?
