Default Pro trailer backup setup

Followed instructions and it was pretty easy. Did the short drive, stopped, put it reverse as instructed. Backed up a few feet using the control and it worked. Got home and tried to back in my driveway using the control. Nope, the system couldn't find my sticker. Re installed setup and same thing happens. Any ideas? Thanks.

Dirty camera lens? Sun shining on the lens or sticker and confusing the computer? Sounds like some kind of visual problem.

I have a silver truck and a white TT, so on a sunny day I don't even try it.
