Backup Camera

Until this trip whenever we started the motorhome the camera always had a rear facing view left side with left signal and right side with right signal. All of a sudden it is all messed up and wants to show a turn camera when going straight and if you manually change it to the real facing it won’t auto switch at all. Thoughts and ideas? I have been unable to find a fix in the menu and DH is getting frustrated.

If it's not a system issue most faults can be traced to a bulb issue. Verify that when you trigger a left and/or right turn that the respective bulbs are flashing. Running lights may also cause issues if not illuminated.

Yep. Probably a dead or loose bulb somewhere.

Appears all the lights on the motorhome are working could it be caused by the towed vehicle?

Like others have said......CAREFULLY CHECK ALL OUTSIDE LIGHTS.

My cameras sometimes act up if you’re running your full lighting system, and it took awhile to verify that one of the filaments was burnt out. I found a side marker light had a loose connection and affected the cameras too. It’s a crazy system.
