2016 Ford Fusion backup camera works intermittently.

Asked by Lori Jul 30, 2020 at 11:40 PM about the 2016 Ford Fusion SE

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My back up camera works sometimes
but more times than not it shows 1 of 3
different things. Either "camera not
available", a blue screen or it just
continues to show the info for what's
playing on my radio. Does anyone else
have this problem or have any ideas on
how to correct it? I'm also trying to find
a wiring diagram for the camera
system so that I can trace the wires to
make sure none are loose or frayed if
anyone has one or knows where I can
find one. Thank you for your time.

I've had the same issue the last 18 months. The dealership has replaced the camera twice and then last week replaced what I think is called the A-Pin module for the Sync system. I'm still having issues with it.

I am also having that problem, but the screen is black and not blue and it does not continue to show the info for whats on my radio. I've been told that maybe buying a new updated entertainment system may be the answer, but it is not guaranteed. I was also told my the Ford dealership that there is a recall for 2020 back up cameras, but not for 2016s.

My 2013 has had this problem for 4-5 years. Disgusting that Ford will not stand behind their product. I will never buy a Ford again!!!

My 2016 Fusion started doing this last week. Sometimes turning the radio off and then back on will get it to work. What a pain!
