I guess I should have benched it before I started the final install. Oh well.

Reverse always has priority from what I've seen. I have been driving with it for two days now, and only had one issue which has been reported already.

They gave me a sequence to do and then relearn the cameras. In fairness the installation wasnt finalized so something could have jarred something (I was doing 45 while off roading )
But when you are in reverse, can you still manually view the front and sides ?

For example, it would be nice, when parking in reverse to put the truck near a curb (side of the street), it would be nice to see the right side camera even in reverse...

And thank you for being our guinea pig...

You mention an "issue"...

Care to elaborate on it ?

@TF

Did you install the required hardware to connect the front camera to the windshield washer liquid tubing ?

If so, are you able to provide the Ford part number required to do this installation at the same time ?

@TEXASFORDING

Hey, could you confirm if this works ?

- Put the vehicule in reverse and try to display the front camera by taping the radio button.

Thanks man!

Sorry if this is a repeat question (I know you don't like to repeat... ) but I'm in discussion with camera-source actually and this is something that seem to be problematic...

Ok got your PM (btw dont PM me, inbox is full) and I wonder whats your logic? Why do you want your front camera to fire when you're driving in reverse?
