I have a hard wired 622gw with a rear window camera which is wired into my estate car through the headlining. This worked perfectly for several months then I started to have issues. I checked all of the connections and cleaned them and then returned the rear camera for replacement but it didn’t solve the problem.
The issue is- the rear camera window inside the front camera image does not appear. If I disconnect the cable from the front camera and reattach I get a rear camera window in the display but it’s just a square in the image with no rear view. The square contains the front view as if I had just drawn a square on the camera screen. It sometimes works correctly when I reconnect the cable but only about 1 in 10. I have tried using my other camera - a 522gw but plugging in the rear camera causes it to continually reboot- so quickly I can’t see what happening with the image. I also have a rear camera add-on module. I’ve tried this to rule out issues with the 622gw. This works fine. Is it likely to be the cable running through the cars headlining?
I don’t really want to fork out for a new cable if it could be something else. I’m now out of other ideas (and warranty).
