side view camera not working? (Surround View)

Soul_Glo · 08-11-2018, 09:30 AM

Has been working fine all these years. Don't understand how a camera can just stop.

Anyone else had to replace one?

Thanks

Mine seem to be fine but tbh never use them. Unlikely that both would go so perhaps it's something other than the cameras themselves.

Maybe connect ISTA and see if that brings anything up if you have access to it

My old 7 series had one side view camera that didnt work. I never got round to fixing it, but it may be a dirty connection.
