5" RA2 touchscreen radio backup camera soft key

[Austen]

My father has a 18' Ram 2500 6.7 Tradesman with the factory RA2 5" touchscreen and under the 'More' button he has a soft key that says rear camera and when you click on it the soft key lights up recognizing that you have touched it & the radio will beep but it does not show his factory backup camera or do anything. Anyone else's 2018 or 2017 have this or know anything about it. Just trying to figure out why it doesn't with. Figured it should be like the trailer hitch camera on my UAQ I installed in my 2017. His truck is completely stock 100%.

Mine doesn’t do anything. At least Not sitting still. Tried in park, neutral or drive.

You have the same soft key in your 2018?

I want to say I tried using before while driving and it pulls up the camera for a few seconds

I'm going to ask the dealer next time I get a chance he went there for recalls the other day and just doesn't care to do anything to his truck but work it and isn't tech savvy so he doesn't worry about those things but I do lol.

I was thinking about recalls and if that would have somehow disabled that feature. I've had all of them done except the tailgate and drag link. I don't know if there was something in alphaobd that could turn it back on

Well he had not had any recalls done until last Wednesday but it didn't work before then either.
