Hi All,
I had a wired reversing camera put in and it was working well....for a while. Then it started getting intermittent faults like - no signal or a fuzzy screen. This would generally happen the first time you put it in reverse, then if you put in into drive or park and back into reverse it would work. Eventually it stopped working or worked very interminably.
I took it back to the place I got it from and they were great – rewiring, replacing the camera, the display screen and re earthing. In the end they gave up and sent it back to the manufacturer to have it tested on the bench.
As expected it has shown no fault. The manufacturer feels that it is a fault in the Navara that is dropping below 9v and needs a dc to dc charger to fix it - @ around $300. After reading though here I was just wondering if oldmates solution to unplug the small harness at the negative terminal would fix this issue? Do any others have advice to fix this?
Many thanks
