I keep the backup camera on always to keep an eye on the MC trailer

I notice in my peripheral vision that it periodically flashes blank then on , but just for an instant.
Can't say for sure that it's only when I hit a bump but it doesn't do it every time I hit a bump
Loose connection?
Normal?
Any others experience this?
Thanks,

Put mine on all the time whenever I'm driving. Never noticed any blinking.

I added a 2nd camera to my MH so i have one looking down so help back up and keep an eye on the tow bar.. the other points straight back and acts like a true Rear View mirror.. there is room for a 3rd camera in the control unit but don't have a need that i can come up for it yet..

Ok, the million dollar question, did you have to break into the wiring going to the existing camera in back to add another camera?

No not at all... the cameras have there own think they are called RCA plugs that fit into the 3 slots in the controller under the dash by the steering. you can even have sound for one. i picked the one looking down so i can hear directions if some one is spotting me.. you do have to run the wire from the camera all the way to the front... not knowing how to get inside the wall i ran the new one down the ladder then under the frame...
