Default weird camera issue

as i was pulling out of my drive something didn't seem right with my camera and it took me a few seconds to see it. somehow, with no changes made to the truck, my camera's display has reversed, but side to side not up and down. for instance as i am backing out my drive the house is on the passenger side, driver side is 10' tall row of bushes. however on my displace the bushes are on the passenger side and house on the driver. top to bottom display still works fine. i also seemed to have lost the distance meter visual aids on my display. i went though all the setting and they are all turned on but nothing displays.

anyone ever experienced this?

Reverse pic is a common issue when it's dying, I believe.

You have to break the badge off to get to the camera you can glue it back on or get a overpriced on from Ford

My camera bluescreens most of the time anymore. It seems to be pretty common for these trucks to have camera issues.

That's usually a wiring issue. Check the wiring in the rear of the truck for damage.
