There is another thread on this forum that mentions the 2024 isn't compatible with the 2020-2023 camera assembly.

 

I traded in my 2020 for a 2024 and my trailer camera no longer worked.

 

My 2024 did come with the whole camera assembly.  I opened the old housing and swapped the camera that came with my truck.  It does work now (including "invisible trailer")_.

 

  Someone on the other thread mentioned there was a way to buy the camera separately.  Since I also had the interior camera set up in my car hauler trailer I purchased it.  It was part number 85573256 for just the camera.  $88.85 including shipping.

 

  I haven't had time to test it with the 2024 yet but I hope to in the next few days.

 

  I will look to see if the part number for the whole trailer camera with housing is still here someplace.

 

Good Luck

I traded my 2020 3500 for a 2024 3500 last month. I moved the camera ports to the bed for towing our trailer but couldn't get the rear camera to work - screen was black with an hourglass. Thought to check out the forums today after ordering a second set of FAKRA-to-FAKRA cables thinking that the cheap $6 cables on Amazon weren't as good as the ones from Pasternak.

 

I guess I'm a little frustrated to hear that the prior trailer cameras don't work. If I could get away with just a camera instead of the whole thing, that would be awesome. TBH running 60 feet of cable under and through the trailer with winter coming on doesn't sound like a project I am wanting to tackle at the moment. 

If you have those part numbers, that would be super helpful. Thanks!

ShogunKC, Where did you buy this camera?

The problem I'm having with the camera (part # 85118298) is that it will only display the mirror image (right becomes left, left becomes right and all lettering is reversed). This should be a simple software fix through the Infotainment System, but Chevy does not provide this directly. Anyone else having this problem and perhaps have a workaround?

    • Because that is IDIOTIC, much like this question. They've already been forced to do it by past administrations - why would you roll that back when it's a GOOD thing?  WHO IS ARGUING FOR LOWER MILEAGE???? 😂  NOBODY IS!!   I'm certainly not! What I want is RELIABLE vehicles again that are worth the price paid!    I don't get your logic here ...   In 2003 I paid $2,200 for our '86 Grand Marquis. It's STILL running and I've never been inside the engine, aside for the timing cover since it was leaking, so I threw a new timing set in since that makes sense. Transmission is ORIGINAL. Electric pump in the gas tank is ORIGINAL. Rear end is ORIGINAL. I'd have to hit my head REAL hard to want to pay $60k or more for a car that still can't come close to the comfort, seating and storage space, or reliability of this one. Nothing is even in the ball park! Hundreds of thousands of brands and models have been built and sent to the crusher while this one keeps on going!   https://postimg.cc/Z9XRrCSg   I've got a whole fleet of cars, motorcycles, and a truck close to this age for summer and winter. No one could pay me enough to buy anything built this century. I have zero use for any it.
    • Since I'm the one who has to fix them when they break, I'll take vehicles over 30 years old all day, EVERY day, over ANY modern crap. Have you attempted any repairs on anything built after 2006? It's a friggin nightmare, and gets worse the newer the model year.    If I had the will or desire, I can make any car of any age outside of a Model T (I don't have THAT much will ...) just as powerful, comfortable, and have all the tech the new stuff does, and get pretty close in mileage, too. I prefer SIMPLICITY. The less the vehicle has, the less to fix WHEN it breaks, not IF.   I'm glad you snot-nosed punks don't like them. More for us, plus that keeps the prices from climbing more than they already have.👍
    • Bringing this thread back on topic. I just noticed the incredible lack of bright chrome across the entire new lineup. Even the Denali has tinted the brightwork in the grille and has none elsewhere. None of them have chrome bumpers. As far as I can tell there aren't even chrome mirror caps. I'm curious if this also happens out back? Are there no chrome rear bumpers either? This is quite the departure for GMC.
