The 2018-2024 Camry, which will be the eighth-generation of the global Camry model, and known as the XV70 was introduced at the January 2017 North American International Auto Show.

Backup camera not working

I have a 2019 Camry; a few years after purchasing, the backup camera would occasionally cut to black while functioning, or simply show a black screen, while other times it worked fine. There was no debris on the lens and I saw no visible damage to the back of the camera or any of the easily accessible wires.

Since then, it cut out for good and has not resumed; every time I reverse, it's a black screen. Something must be working, because I do get the proximity "beeps" when someone is behind me.

Asked the repair shop and was quoted $1,500 - any suggestions?

I have some problem did you find any solution?

The electric shop asked me to get a new camera

Hi @syracuse26

Have you checked that the #16 15A TV fuse in the passenger compartment fuse block is OK? Also are the reversing lights working OK?

UPDATE 12.2.2024

Hi @syracuse26

Here's the wiring diagram for the rear view camera system that may help.

It looks like there are two type of TV systems available unless one is just an enhancement on the other.

There's one known as a rear view monitor system (*6) and the other is a panoramic view monitor system (*5 & *8)

I've highlighted in a purple box the wiring paths to follow depending on which system is in use in your vehicle i.e. *6 or *5 &*8

There are 4 pages in the image.

Starting from the left the first page is just the power supply to the radio/navigation unit which seems to be working OK as far as receiving power so as to operate other reversing functions e.g. lights and proximity system etc.

The 2nd page is the circuit from the radio/nav unit to the cameras, either the rear view monitor on p.3 (*6) and/or the panoramic view monitor on p.4 (*5 & *8)

Perhaps check if there is power getting to the camera(s?) on the CB+ lead when measured to an earth (chassis), when reverse gear is selected.

If there is power at the camera then the problem could still be that the camera, the wiring (video wiring) or the radio/nav unit (as far as the rear camera circuit is concerned) is faulty but at least you know that the camera is getting power. Little steps I know but you've got to start somewhere.

Hopefully this is of some help.

Hello - I just swapped out the TV fuse as suggested (it was in the engine compartment fuse box); no joy. Yes, reverse lights and all other electronics are functioning - nothing else is out.
