Have RRS 3.0 HSE, got new in December 09.

Lovely car, I love the new interior and extra quietness, all the gadgets etc.....

Anyway, since getting the car, on placing the gearstick in reverse, the rear view camera shows up on the screen with an overlay of yellow lines indicating the route and width of the car.

Well, it did until last weekend when these lines suddenly disappeared; everything else works just fine.

Did I do something unintentionally or is this a common "feature"?

Can anyone help?

Thanks

Simon, there is a service bulletin out on this issue. A dealer fix.

I think it will only be available if you also have a towbar fitted, if that's any help. Alfa Romeo Giulietta 1.8::MG Montego Turbo::MGB GT::Rover Sterling::MGF::MG ZT 190+

just checked...you are right but it also says:

"Note: If the connection is not detected, setup
can be manually prompted by touching the
Tow Assist icon on the Camera menu."


And that my problem....I don't have this menu... Range Rover Vogue ‘17 TDV6

I think it helps you hook up to a trailer by directing you when you reverse so you can aim for the hitch, and then when you've got a trailer connected it shows you which way you're going to go when you reverse, hopefully avoiding all those embarrasing jackknife situations at the gymkhana  Alfa Romeo Giulietta 1.8::MG Montego Turbo::MGB GT::Rover Sterling::MGF::MG ZT 190+

had hoped reverse camera would show tow ball so i could rely on my own eyes rather than static MY59 wifey who's only contribution is to shout "stop" then tell me how far off line I am. Alas due to position it dont purple people eater

I too have the reversing camera fault. Indeed the picture is reversed! The yellow guidelines have gone too.

I was told by the dealer that simply replacing the faulty camera doesn't fix the problem and they are awaiting news from LR on a permanent fix.

Has anyone had the camera replaced? Did it work? Anyone know when a permanent fix might become available?

Thanks.

I suggest driving to your dealer and reversing right through the plate glass showroom window and then apologising saying you got confused because the camera picture was reversed. If a few of you do this then the dealers might start pressurising LR for a quick fix  Alfa Romeo Giulietta 1.8::MG Montego Turbo::MGB GT::Rover Sterling::MGF::MG ZT 190+
