Default 2004 Rear Back up camera

It just started today, when I put it in reverse the screen is "jumping". It flickers up and down like the tuning is off. Has this happened to anyone else?

Thanks. My husband looked at it and he said it was just dirty. Strange because I cleaned it and it still did the same thing. I still think its something electrical

Mine flickered the other day. It seemed to be searching for the correct colors since it turned all rainbow colored for 30 seconds. I was just sitting there watching it

I'd take it in to the dealer and have them check it out. If they don't believe you, just take a short video of it next time it happens and they'll have to do it

GL!

The right mirror also died last week
