Rear Vision Camera System Operation
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Buick Regal TourX and 2018 Buick Regal. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The rear vision camera system consists of a video camera located at the rear of the vehicle and the Rado.
When the transmission is placed into REVERSE, a signal is sent to the Radio indicating that camera operation is requested. The rearview camera sends video information to the radio through a coax cable. The coax cable also provides power from the Radio to the rearview camera.
The following conditions may cause a degraded rear vision camera image:
- Ice, snow, or mud has built up on the rear vision camera
- Dark conditions
- Extreme light conditions, such as glare from the sun or the headlights of another vehicle
- Damage to the rear of the vehicle
- Extreme high temperatures or extreme temperature changes
If a malfunction is detected in the system, Service Rear Vision Camera may be displayed on the Info Display Module as an indicator to the customer that a problem exists that requires service.
