This morning, as I was backing out of the driveway, the backup camera picture all of a sudden turned yellow. I'm not sure what caused it, but I was hoping somebody here might be able to clarify.

To be more specific, the screen turned completely yellow, with a blue bar scanning/tracking back and forth across the screen. I'm guessing this indicates the radio and the camera have some how become disconnected, but that is just a guess.

When I got to work, I put the car in reverse to adjust my parking job, and the same thing happened. I turned the car off, and back on again, only to see the same thing.

I'll probably end up heading back to the dealer this weekend to get this sorted out, but as I said, I was hoping somebody here might be able to clarify what I am experiencing. Thanks!

Idk, sometimes mine has a pretty good delay but nothing like that

I would check the config menu, and make sure it is enabled with a check mark.

...also, wipe the lens with a soft rag.

Ours did the same thing this evening. The sun was beating down on the back of the car. (camera looking in the sun) It resolved itself after getting home and sitting in the garage a few minutes. I'm wondering if the bright afternoon sun threw the white balance off while the camera was trying to "see". We'll keep an eye on this and keep everyone posted if we figure anything out. I have "backed into the sun" before and gotten a thin line that goes away after the angle changes too. If anyone sees a dealer about this, make sure to follow up here!

This exact thing has happened 3 or 4 times in the year I have owned my car. I can assure that it doesnt have anything to do with heat or the sun because it has happened at night for me. I took it to the dealer with the photo I took and they couldnt find anything wrong.

I get that thin vertical line that collapses into nothing almost all the time, like a special effect on the original Star Trek where these Woman touch you, steal your blood cells and disappear into a line. Lee Meriweather, former Catwoman and Miss U.S.A. was the leader of those creatures. Anyway while backing up I can see the line just closing in on itself if I turn the car slightly! Strange.

back up camera

This morning, as I was backing out of the driveway, the backup camera picture all of a sudden turned yellow. I'm not sure what caused it, but I was hoping somebody here might be able to clarify.

My 2013 models back up camera stopped also. Bought used from CarMax with extended warranty, (Glad I Did). Camera is connected with the shifter. For some reason, their was a short, fuse blew. The tech said, I could have just replaced the fuse, but replaced the shifter also. Back up camera works now, but would have cost $500.00 plus car rental of a car. Replace part had to be sent from GM. I hope this helps.
