Troubleshooting
•
There is no video or it is intermittent.
The BNC connector is probably shorted or the wires
are pinched.
Ensure that the BNC connector inside the
connection box is wrapped with electrical tape to
prevent metal-to-metal contact with the camera
housing (Figure 8).
Ensure that the pigtail wires coming from the camera
are not pinched in the hinge.
•
Video is upside down or misaligned on the monitor.
The camera is not inverted or aligned. Invert and/or
align the camera. See Mounting the camera from
below on page 1.
•
Video is shaky on the monitor.
There is excessive vehicular vibration of the camera.
Reinforce the mounting surface with a tapping plate
placed behind the mounting surface to minimize
vibration.
