good afternoon( been a while but I'm back!) my reverse camera on my 2006 vogue is more often showing a black screen( every now and again it works but is not great) so I presume it's either the camera or the connection to the camera!

Anyone took one of these of beforehand? Is it easy? And if the camera is fooked where is best to get a replacement?
 
Soon vehicles will be regarded as undriveable if the reverse camera, tyre pressure indicator or the automatic parallel parking are inoperative. :D:D
 
As someone said to me the other day "does it start and drive? whats the problem then..." haha.

My first port of call would be to carefully remove it from the vehicle and make sure all the connectors for it are clean, dry and corrosion free?

I'm not familiar with the system but can you manually turn the camera on and of or does it just come on when you go into reverse? I realise its probably automatic as well but can it be manually activated?

A quick fleabay search shows that they are not as cheap as they might be (considering the internals are probably a £2.50 webcam!) http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Reversing...348330?hash=item5419c140ea:g:-tYAAOSw5VFWHj5N

At that money i will continue to use the towbar as an indicator. When you hear a crunch stop reversing. :D:D
