Here's a question for everyone... In the C510 and C610 connectors, the gray plug is the B section, right? My gray plugs were on the top and the wiring looked to be correct on those, so I think my door harnesses just hadn't been in the correct orientation as they have a lot of slack and can twist and go either way from what I could see.

Crap... I'm gonna have to open that back up later and make sure I'm not remembering it wrong now. Either way, the connector diagrams for Ford Service were partially wrong, but maybe that's part of my trouble. Cooking dinner now, but I'll try to open it up afterwards.

I just opened up my passenger door harness and the grey plug is absolutely the B half of mine. While I feel better that I didn't screw up that wiring, I was really hoping to find something wrong there that was causing my problems. I checked and made sure that all of my wires were matching as they should and the circuits appear to be correct, next step is going to be to check the driver's side and test continuity from C2512B to the camera plugs.

Yeah, the new module procedure is what I meant. I did not do a reset.
I don't think that your issues are Forscan related. When I unplugged C211 to fix my wires the screens went blue like that. Seems like a wiring issue.

I'm really leaning towards a software/programming issue at this point. I just checked continuity from C2512B to both camera connectors and the body side of C211 and everything looks good, and the wiring circuits all makes sense. I also verified that I get a ground signal at C2512A Pin 5 every time I press the 360 button.
The only thing I haven't checked at this point is continuity all the way to the front camera and that the power and LIN circuits are actually there from the factory like they're expected to be. I didn't think to check it when I installed the camera and grille last year as I hadn't had any reason to expect otherwise.
I'm also going to check that power is actually being provided to the side cameras when the 360 view is on the screen, but that's going to have to wait as I probably won't have time again until next weekend. I assume power is only sent to them when the 360 view is called up, right?
