No prob. I was 10 ft from my truck and I knew you had to be able to do it. Glad you got it figured out.

Open mouth insert foot. So I figured it out. Here is how it's done. On the DIC go to Settings. Scroll through until you get to a page titled Info Pages. Cursoring to the right well give you the pages that you can add or remove. In my defense, the manual does nothing to assist you with this. Not even my dealer was aware how it's done.

 

lol no worries amigo! its a little bit of a learning curve. and I actually just shot a short video that explains the DIC functionality. Hopefully it helps someone.

Nope never did figure it out...I think it's only on certain models

Have you tried to hold the Lock button on the remote for more than 10 seconds? it work on mine... same goes for the Unlock button Hold it for more than 10 seconds and it will unfold the mirrors

 

Found the new trick on moving the apps on the screen around..

heres a trick some of you may not know yet....

if you open the tailgate about halfway and kinda loop one of the cables over the latch on the side when you let go and get in the truck put it in reverse. you notice the camera is pointing directly at the tow hitch. no need for a spotter anymore.

When I was shopping a salesman showed me that trick. Unfortunately he knew a few other tricks and forgot about a thousand dollar rebate so I bought my truck from another dealer with a few less tricks.

um, you can see your hitch with the camera just as it is... well unless your ball is to small hahahaha
but seriously with the mount and ball in, you should clearly be able to see the ball
