Anyone had this happen and found what’s causing it?
It is erratic but seems to be happening more often. Sometimes it’s squiggly lines, sometimes it’s a green screen, and sometimes it’s a black screen d670b0b0f1d4d9962b7ac585b5465321.jpg

Better make an appointment with the dealer because once it starts doing that **** it ain't going to fix itself. I removed the harness and sprayed it with contact cleaner and that worked temporarily but it eventually started screwing up again. That was on my previous Ram; I've had this one for 15 months and no problems with it yet.

Mine does this and it started doing so immediately (and intermittently) after I had the U-61 recall work done...heading into the dealership next week!

Had a black screen a couple of times, but not in quite a while. Not sure what the cause was. just had the recall done too, will be sure to keep an eye on it to make sure no issues now.

And while I don't want to blame the recall work for causing my camera issue, it's at least coincidental...my Reb was flawless before it went in!
