Rear camera cuts out in reverse

Damn...

That's what I'm afraid of. I've been told the module behind the seat has replaced, the rear camera and all connections cleaned and greased. But, I've never received any documentation of any of that.

Good idea. I hear ford's never have any sort of quality issues.

Had the same issue with my 2022 the dealer finally replaced the rear backup camera and so far it has not re-occured in over a 2 month.

The manufacturer has no idea whatsoever on how to fix this problem, let alone what causes it. Nor are they willing to replace anything.   Probably would have been better off buying a ford.

Just FYI, they replaced several camera modules behind the rear seat before they dug deeper and said the rear window was leaking on the modules, requiring yet another replacement.  However, on another visit after that they said the rear camera that had already been replaced before had developed an internal short, and the factory wiring harness also had shorts in it.  Our truck was bought new, stays in a southern climate, has never been wrecked, and is all dealer maintained, so in my opinion it has to be design flaws in the electrical systems on these trucks.  The electrical issues alone in our truck have been a nightmare, let alone the other warranty repairs.  I initially chalked it up to being a Covid era build that sat around in Mexico or a railyard for months, but I'm seeing the exact issues posted here on '22-'24 trucks.

If anyone is wondering...

This sucks. Rewired the whole system, 2 seperate harnesses, I'm told. New cameras all around. New module, I guess behind the seat. New camera in the windshield. Two more times at the dealer for that. Yesterday waited on it to get wrapped up. Drove off the lot, stopped 10 mins down the road, put it in reverse--- the black screen with the triangle and exclamation mark.

This is beyond infuriating at this point. I don't know what to do either. The dealer says they've talked to "GM", I've opened a case with GM customer care, but I think its obvious they aren't communicating with one another because of things each have said the other is working on, but nothing happens.

I hate to trade it, but that's what I think my only real option is.

Not to discourage you, but I opened a case with GM customer care too, and their offers were insulting at best after all the electrical problems we've had with our truck.  Plus, it took over 4 months of constantly hounding them before anything came of it.  When the truck had a repeat issue before resolving the customer care case, they put the offers on hold and told me I had to take the truck back to the dealer before they would do anything more.  We weren't sure if trading for the same brand would accomplish anything because ours is a '21 and we've seen reports from '22-'24 owners of the same issue.  When you stop the truck and re-start does the black screen cure itself or is it still stuck?  Sometimes that would cure our issue temporarily, and during other failures it would not.

2024 RST have the same issue it's intermittent but for $65K it shouldn't be happening and the dealership does software updates they say and it will work for a day or two then back to the black screen

Mine goes back in Friday for what I think is the 8th visit for a fault/failure in the surround camera failure.  For the second time, the drivers surround camera flashing between the image and black, or just all black, but we've had the black screen multiple times too.  I'm not convinced GM knows how, or wants to spend the money it would take to fix this system on existing models, as all they've done is throw parts at it... multiple camera modules, multiple cameras, new wiring harnesses, software updates, you name it, and here we are at 4.5 years and 60K+ miles with the same problem it's had since it was new.

Have been driving a 2022 Silverado 1500 loaner while my 2021 camera system gets diagnosed, and the 2022 loaner is flashing to a black screen with a red exclamation in reverse.  Had to just laugh... clearly GM is lost on this one!

I was getting the black screen whenever I put the truck in reverse as well.  I found damage to the coaxial cable between the rear camera and the connector located on the drivers rear of the vehicle, as well as some damaged connectors elsewhere where conductors had detached from the connector pins.  I re-pinned the connectors, and since the coaxial cable couldn't be purchased individually, I purchased the entire rear harness which was about $120, and replaced it myself. 

 

Upon inspection of the pins, I believe them to be Molex 150MX pins.  They installed seamlessly and worked perfectly in the connectors.

 

No issues since replacing the harness and re-pinning a circuit.

      AFM Experience

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Question @diyer2 on this line if you please. Are you saying the shudder is the system turning on and off at the frequency of the shudder? Guess I'm asking if you are saying you have seen it do this with the bi-direction scan tool in graph mode? If so have you been able to discern the 'trigger'. Something is telling to cycle rapidly.    My truck just started doing this recently. 197K on the clock. My response has been M5 anything under 55 mph. I treat it like a lugging stick shift. Gear down and let it spin a bit. Engauge M5, then tow mode and then M6 lets the trans stay in 5th but the AFM is active. Smooth like Skippy.    My thought was that as a machine ages the friction gets lower and as the system is load based, the lower friction would allow it to turn on at ever lower rpm until it reaches the lugging point. And yes I am ignorant of any minimum rpm requirement for the system. If you know that would be useful information.    As you know I run a Scan-Gauge II which allows me to watch the On/Off of the signal to the VLOM. While in the shudder mode I'm not seeing is cycle at that frequency or at all for that matter outside the triggers @newdude posted a few years back. Now is it possible that the refresh rate isn't fast enough to catch it? Maybe. It is why I asked my first question about graphing and trigging parameter.     As we have observed from members here the failure point is all over the map miles wise as you note yourself in your opening post. That by itself begs a few questions like fellows that comment on these lifters failing even after the system has been disabled. Long after. 😬   https://www.enginelabs.com/news/tech-tips-replacing-ls-active-fuel-management-lifters-with-melling/   The Gen5 lifters operate the same as the LS versions. In fact they are the same lifter.    https://www.enginelabs.com/tech-stories/sorting-out-gen-v-lt-lifter-failure-with-a-simple-valvetrain-fix/

      14-18 Sierra 1500 Heated Steering Wheel Help

      By SwitchBladeSierra · Posted

      UPDATE 2: Steering wheel control backlights and control of the cluster can supposedly be achieved by adding a wire to pin 20 of the cluster and tapping it to pin 2 of the main clock spring harness. I'm going to give it a shot - will update

      Seems to be Missing a lot of Updates

      By newdude · Posted

      GM Global A pickups 2019-2022 can do OTA programming for the radio.  GM VIP (GM Global B) can do OTAs for almost every module on board.  So a 2022.5 and newer pickup can do OTAs for recalls like the 2.7 fuel flow recall.  EVs get OTAs that improve one pedal driving, radio issues, HVAC issues, updated battery management software, etc.     So age of the vehicle/what GM electrical platform its on will alter what amount of updates can be pushed on OTAs.

      Upgrade to a 2026 AT4 with the 3.0L Duramax

      By Blade8971 · Posted

      Thank You.   So far my new ride is making me look like a genius for going with the 3.0L, as my first fuel refill occurred over three weeks from when I took delivery.  This engine combination is very amazing.  So far no issues and had not done a regen yet.

      Correct way to service 2024 l8t allison trans?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I am curious as to how much fluid you put back in the transmission ( assuming you had replaced the filter to compare to my findings ) and then went through the process of warming up the trans before pulling the check plug to drain out the excess and if you measured how much came back out.    I just found it surprising that some claimed a certain amount less fluid being put in and then draining some back out. The attitude of the truck as per if the surface is level and how the trucks stance is would make quite a difference since the check plug is right at the front of the transmission.
