RVC Stuck Eeeeek
« on: December 08, 2011, 07:48:30 am »
Hi All
My reversing camera seems to randomly stick in the "out" position....
Any ideas why this would be happening, before it goes back to the stealers?
Cheers

Have you checked for any debris, muck build up around the pivot point or the top of the badge? Does the badge move smoothly or does it feel has though its jamming at all, if in any doubt i would be back to the dealer but if it just needs a good clean bring it round to mine and we'll have a look?

Dealers couldn't find anything physically wrong with the RVC other than being stuck.
So they have replaced the whole unit under warranty.
Yep I had checked for the obvious can't really say it was jammed by anything.
Just one of those things I suppose.

Shame you didn't have a camera feed permanently too. Would have been a hoot away from the lights :grin:

Glad it's sorted though :santa:
