Reverse camera problems...
In the last few days... My guide lines on my camera stopped working, image is reversed, and now the picture is getting fuzzy and distorted with static lines. Did some research but all the fixes I could find is replacing the camera. Any fixes since then?
Help anyone? TIA

I had the same exact issue, it would turn the lines on and a couple of days later they will be gone again. The dealer replaced the camera to fix the issue. Have not had any issues since.
Since yours is older and probably out of warranty, you might want to check a couple of things before ordering a new camera Part# BL3Z-19G490-B.
#1, if there is not enough light, the camera will go fuzzy, that is normal.
#2, check you instrument cluster computer display if you have one. You can turn the lines on and off from there.
#3, check the camera quick disconnect at the tailgate, clean it with contact cleaner if needed. Remember to add dielectric grease if you do clean it.

Mine was a broken wire. Worked fine until a temperature change, then all sorts happen including the blue screen.
Not sure how they found it the since they would change out almost everything whenever I took it in for service. IIRC they finally got a high resistance in the wire and then they took apart everything to check the wires.
Good luck.

Maybe it's funny since your message is about 6 years since you made it but I just bought a used f150 xlt. 2013 3.5ecoboost and the exact same thing happens to me with my camera. How could you solve your problem?
