and it seems to work fine at first but once ive used it while driving the display image has some lines which are flickering and once i stay in reverse for more then 15 sec i get a black screen and sometimes a massage says " Parkpilot isnt available right now"

now this only happens when its hot outside . once its night / cold weather the display seems fine . now at hot weather if i keep engine off and shift to reverse the image works good and only when i start engine it doing this problems all over again . 

please help me .... took me ages to install this.

 

Display when engine if off and weather is hot

Update : beside the first Image all the rest is when engine is ON

Which camera did you install? Have you contacted the seller?

Yes i have . He says the problem is the filter and he sent new one . i have installed it as well and still the same . might be the camera unit itself ? o.o?

Admittedly mine was the plug and play version for my Amundsen unit, but I couldn’t get it to work at all initially.  I was convinced it was installed correctly, and that all the connections were secure.

 

However, with nothing to lose, I pulled the glove box etc out, undid all the connections, and redid them, and it then worked perfectly.  I have no idea which connector was to blame, only that one of them was!  Also, I made sure that when I pushed the unit back in, it didn’t foul any of the cabling, as this might have pulled a joint slightly out of place.  Possibly worth a try?

 

Hope you can solve it.
