NAV-tv backup camera image reversed
Noticed something odd yesterday with my camera. The i image is backwards. Basically what's on my left, on the screen shows is on my right. Throws me off when reversing. I don't remember this being an issue before, but I did have the dealership install the IPD plenum so they had to remove the bumper. However, the plug only goes together one way.
Any clues as to what caused it and how to fix it?

Most cameras have a wire loop on the camera end that you cut to flip the image. That way it can be used as a front camera. It seems odd that it would have been cut accidentally, but stranger things have happened.
Are you using the NavTV CAM6?

Yes, that's the one I'm using. I was told that the white and green or the wires you cut to have the grid lines. I've had them cut and the gridlines appeared. Now I can't get them to go away and there's no other loop for the image to be flipped.

Ok I finally figured it out. The white loop need to be connected to the ground (bare wire) in order to flip the image. If its cut the image is flipped for a front facing camera.
The green is the grid lines. I reconnected that to the ground as well and the grid lines went away. I never liked the lines because they don't move like the ones from the factory do when you turn the wheel.

Well let me know if you also figure it out.
