Thought it was fixed because I went out several times that week and the camera was working. I pull it out to hook up to toad for another trip and it's working pulling out of driveway. Hook up the road and set off and not working again. It's strange because every time I check it while not hooked up it seems to work, but not when I actually need it. Doesn't work in reverse either. I get the blue screen that says no signal.
Originally when it happened I called the camera company and the girl I spoke to told me to look under the dash for the silver box and try connecting to a different input. I didn't see the box she was talking about. Definitely a mystery!

If you have a Rear View Safety camera system, you have a monitor in place of the rear view mirror. On the right side of the screen is a vertical row of screen touch buttons. The bottom button is the on/off, but touching one of the other buttons has worked for me. However, if you have no reverse camera, it is either a bad camera or a bad connection. If it is intermittent, it is more likely a connection. The hardest problem to solve is when it works sometimes.
