Full brightness backup camera

[ram1067]

OK, had the update applied and got the chance test it out..

 

It does reduce the brightness of the screen when put in reverse and allows you to see and use your mirrors. GM still didn't provide any way to adjust the brightness with this fix.

hey thanks for the update! mine will be going in soon! just curious did you have any "shifting issues" corrected?

I had TSB 17-NA-269 implemented on my truck today and it completely fixed this problem! Get it done on your truck and you'll be a happier camper!

Yes had the reprogram done last Friday and it made a big difference.  The problem is new for 2017 LOL not a problem on my old 2014 or 2016 trucks

I posted this in the HD forum too:

 

I have a 2015 Silverado and my wife has a 2015 ATS.  Both backup camera screens work like they should.  But I had a 2018 ATS loaner and the screen was B-R-I-G-H-T  !!

 

GM must have changed something on all brands around 2017 ...

I’m bringing my 2017 HD in tomorrow, I was just in for the seat belt satisfaction replacement bulliten. I wish they would have done this when I was there for that. I didn’t really think there was a fix until I starting driving my 17 Tacoma with adjustable brightness. The Factory setting on the HD is blinding at night.

This dealer fix is the way to go. Much needed if you try to back up at night! Glad I made the trip today!

I had this done two weeks ago and it made a world of difference. 100% fixed

The update helps a lot but I wish they would come up with a fix so that the brightness level would be user adjustable, sometimes now in certain situations it is too dark.  If I back over and KILL you it is not my fault Hahahahahahaha

Had this TSB performed on my 17' 1500 today huge improvement!!! Thanks for posting this almost 18 months ago now. Had asked the dealer earlier about the backup camera being too bright at night, and you get this blank stare followed by it's what? The search function is a wonderful thing. LOL

Anyone know if you can you get this done outside factory warranty?  I just rolled over 36K and found this thread so didn't know there was a fix.

Just had my 2018  Silverado in for service and asked them about the backup camera which sucks at night. They said that there was nothing wrong with it. I gave them the TSB 17-NA- 269 and they did nothing , said it was normal. I can't use it at night. The whole 2018 Silverado is crap compared to my 2015 and earilier Chevys. A lot of technology but a shit ass truck. Maybe time for something else?

Is your '18 made after the cutoff date? If not, find a new dealer that doesn't treat you like shit...

It wasn't the dealer.  The dealer wanted to replace the camera but G M nixed it. Said it was within specifications. I contacted GM and have not received a reply yet.

I see...Why not take it to the dealership to address a TSB? After showing them the TSB did they determine that your vehicle was affected or built after March '18? If it meets the guidelines for the TSB have them apply the fix.
