"Camera System" error

Dr Forinor · 12-10-2018, 02:38 AM

This is what I get when I put it into reverse;

Further checking and I get this (sure enough no view from side cameras);

Any ideas what might be wrong, please?

This is what the actual cameras look like from outside;

Right side

Left side, this side appears to have something wrong with it compared to every other camera?

Anyone experienced this?

Looks like water has got into the camera.

Dr Forinor · 12-10-2018, 05:55 AM

Oh, is that the camera kaput then you think? Or will that dry out and be fine? But if water's got in, then it means a seal is not doing it's job, which means new camera?

Camera kaput, it will have corroded the internals.

Will be as simple as remove this camera module, fit a new one, plug and play?

I'm not sure. Are you out of warranty?

Dr Forinor · 12-10-2018, 08:31 AM

Yeh, no warranty now.

Might be plug and play, but looks like may be upside down and need correcting with ISTA, and the cable could be corroded too like this guy:
