2011 LTD Reset Backup Cam AGAIN!!


Recommended Posts

2011 Edge LTD.  So my backup cam has gone upside down again and I am (trying) to (once again) reset it with FORSCAN.  However, now Forscan only gets to 8% and then says "Reconfiguration aborted. Please run Self-Test to reset trouble codes."  Well, I have reset every freaking trouble code that I had multiple times.  There are no DTC's in ANY modules, but I still get the same error message.  What am I not doing correctly?  Is there some other 'Self-Test' somewhere that I should be running??  Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks!

Well I reset the Parking Aid Module and the reconfiguration passed.  Unfortunately now when I go run a Forscan scan there is no option to Reset Backup Camera.  It has disappeared.  I guess I am destined for a $2000 dealer camera installation.  Weird thing is that the camera works just fine, its just upside down.  If I could find a way to  rotate the camera lens 180 degrees, I would.  Then be done with it.

 

Also, I assume that I am on Sync 3 as I have an '11 Limited with all bells and whistles.  It keeps asking me what Sync version I am on.

 

Thanks again for any information/suggestions you might offer.

Duane,

 

You are on Sync 2.  Sync 3 was introduced in 2016 on the Edge.

 

It seems as though your camera may truly be on the way out, based on what you describe.  I would try and reconfigure using the proper sync setting (although I’m not sure that is the cause of your issue).

 

No need to spend $2000 at all.  I did it for just over $200 and under an hour of my time, assuming you have a few basic tools (Torx and flathead screwdrivers, sockets, etc):
