I’ve been told it’s easy to install a new back up camera. Any suggestions? Links to forums or videos?, This just happened. I’ve had the car since July and when I put it in reverse now, this happens.
sometimes when it’s not pink it is glitching or looking like an old TV with a vertical hold that doesn’t work
I think it's just poor design, we've had it repaired or told by the techs that they couldn't find the problem; when they replaced the camera it still does the same thing from time to timeI’ve been told it’s easy to install a new back up camera. Any suggestions? Links to forums or videos?
I think I probably watched the same video. He made it sound easy and then I watched the video and I thought gosh,I have to take all those inside panels out. I’m sure I will break a clip. I’ll try the slamming the trunk a few times. (Give it the Fonzie touch.)My backup camera was flaky and would come back to life if I slammed the hatch. So i knew the problem was related to an intermittent fault. I pulled the interior hatch panels (found a YouTube to help the disassembly) and then used CRC-QD contact cleaner on all the connectors that are part of the wiring harness to the camera. Its been good now for the 10 months since I did it. Many electrical problems are due to connections that just need cleaning and 'exercise' by disconnecting and reconnecting a connector pair, as oxidation can build up on the mating surfaces. You might try rapping on the hatch to see if yours is also intermittent.

Well, I’d like to think I have something to do with this. Just got a notice from my CARFAX Progressive app that there is a Nissan recall for the back up camera. I sent screenshots from this forum and a photo of my back up camera to Nissan, USA on Twitter and a direct message. Lo and behold… There’s now a recall for it!My backup camera was flaky and would come back to life if I slammed the hatch. So i knew the problem was related to an intermittent fault.
