Back-up Camera Issues
- Thread starter rainking6
- Start date
Just want to post I just had the same experience. I have a buddy at an out of state Ford dealership check the diagnostic my dealership ran and confirmed they didn’t find any error codes. Ford Corporate apparently won’t cover dealership labor/parts without them. This stalemate is by design at most, negligence at minimum.
I bought my 2020 ST roughly three weeks ago - the dealer got it back a week later. One of the issues was the rear camera. I just got it back last Monday and it's got to go back because the camera has failed again. It has been reset at least twice and it doesn't hold for more than a couple of days. I haven't made it a week without an issue so far.
MIne was replaced back in March and software was reset. The blue screen problem went away until recently. Now it comes back for a few seconds and goes away. Before the old camera would stay blue until you restarted the vehicle. So it's somewhat of an improvement but it sucks when you try to use the Parking Assist and it goes blue for a second and cancels the parallel parking process.
Agreed - unfortunately, restarting the vehicle doesn't work for mine. It randomly fails until it's less random and more consistent and then it just stops working altogether. I also have a cracked CAT, had the window switches replaced, mid pipe rattle and had a braking issue they couldn't explain. The braking module was replaced and it, so far, seems to be fine. A lot of issues for three weeks of ownership!
Anyone have a solution to this problem? I have had the "Rear Brake assist not available " and a rear camera blue screen happen about 40-50 % of the time. It seems to have started after the recall reprograming the E Brake on when in park. I had it back at the dealer and they updated 10 modules including the IPBM and it is still happening.
I have it booked Thursday for another look by the Dealer.
It is a 21 ST.
Any suggestions to pass along?

That was before the camera replacement for me. For almost a year, I've never had to restart the vehicle to have the camera come back. It comes back on its own. So it is "better." It's good enough that I haven't asked them to look at the problem again. The software update was Ford's BS solution for the problem.
