My 2017 Ram Rebel back up camera showed the same screen that yours did. Easy fix thanks to your video. You gotta love the people who spend the time making these types Of DIY videos to help the rest of us out there. Thank you

I looked to see if anyone had said anything about it and nobody has unless i just missed it skimming. The video is great. I assumed it was pretty simple. Just looked to be sure. I watch these videos for like tool info. Like i dont Have to guess whether it’s t15 or a t50. I can walk out there with the 30 and be done with it. But the best part of the video was seeing and hearing that young man use his manners. It’s a lost art that more people need to get back into. Anyways, good job on the mechanic stuff. Great job on the dad stuff. Get that boy some ice cream or something. Get ahold of me and I’ll cashapp you and pay for it. Yours too.

Great video!! Worked perfectly for my 2017 Ram 1500. Not that I would ever trust a dealership but I did inquire with one about fixing my back-up camera. Those wretched thieves wanted $700 to fix and/or replace my system. Thanks to this video, my problem is fixed...for free...and only took around ten minutes' time and one zip tie. Dealerships are only good for recall repairs and free oil changes (assuming your new car comes with them). Although when using one of my free oil changes at a Toyota dealership, they tried to tell me I needed a new front windshield because of a gravel divot that was barely visible. I digress. Thanks for the video.

Thanks for the video. I have a 2017 Ram 1500 Crew Cab Big Horn. I could not pull the connector apart but I push the connector together and zip tied it. Works like a charm. Saved me going to dealer and wasting my time even though I have an extended warranty

I followed these instructions to a tee. It worked like a charm. Thank you so much. 🙏🏽👍🏽

Thanks so much for doing this & mentioning the T30 bit. I just fixed mine. Clearly someone had been in there before, the small round white connector to the camera was a little chewed up. Removed & sprayed it with Deoxit5 & replaced it. Camera fixed. Could not get the larger connector apart but didn't need to.

Yup I have that exact issue ,,2017 ram rebel...thank you buddy

Good job brother. You just saved me money and time taking my 2500 to the stealer ship. Took me 15 min to fix mine.

“Good job daddy” at the end was super cute! Thanks for the video!!!!

Thanks for the great video it's saved me probably a lot of money who knows the garage may have wanted to sell me a whole new screen it was exactly what was wrong with my 2016 2500 thanks again

Thanks yall!!! Worked perfectly!!!! EHHHHHHGG

My 2017 Ram 1500 is doing this EXACT thing for couple weeks now it's been ticking me off. It even went to a solid green screen once like you mentioned. I'll be opening it up and putting some zip ties in there. Thanks for this video!

Thanks so much. Your baby stole the show. GOOD JOB DADDY. lol he’s so precious. You saved the day and my time and money. Great job

I have had issues before with the 2017 Laramie package 1500 camera. Dealership has inconsistent service. Then I got a bed extender to carry a 9 foot kayak in the back. I suspect my connections got loose from driving to and from the local lake with the bed down. Video will save a lot of money and time. Thank you so much.

Thanks this solved my issue with the backup camera. Ever since I had a recall on the tailgate and it was done I’ve had camera problems.

Did not get my connector loose but did compress it for a better connection and it is working! Thanks you sir!!!

Awesome Video. I had the same problem, i got under the truck and fiddled with the connectors and it worked for a while. It makes sense that the issue is in the tail gate. It's the opening and closing. Thank you saved me a trip to the Dealer lol😀

Thank you so much for making this video for the issue. I had the same issue and now it's working fine, which saved me hundreds of $$$ that my dealership diagnosed the issue and asked me to get a new camera.

Thank you brother! Got the 2020 rebel… a little different, but found my connector to the camera completely detached! One of the harness clips was not clipped in, so the camera cable wiggled it’s way out somehow? Love the zip tie suggestion! I tied mine all up and tied the harness clip to its home. Works great now! Thanks again!

Thanks, man! I love you tube videos! Save lots on repairs. Thanks again.

Thank you! Dealership wanted me to replace the whole camera system, but this did the trick!

Great video took me about 5 minutes to take off panel tighten up the connector and check the camera. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

Thx for the video! My 2016 just started displaying this fuzzy screen a few days ago, will give that a shot as soon as I can.

L Dude, thanks a million. I was going crazy.. it worked then didn't. Then did. At the dealer they said nothing was wrong and could not recreate. Your vid solved my same issue as well..

Going to try this today, my camera just sh!t today. Thank you brother! Be safe.

Thanks to you i solved the problem in a few minutes, thank you again very very much

Thanks for the video! Exactly what my ‘17 RAM back-up camera is doing.

Thank you, that did the trick for my 2016!

Very easy to follow.. thanks for sharing.

Thank you. Exactly what my problem is with the same exact truck.

Thanks for this video!

Thanks brother

Thanks for the great video! I have the exact same issue with my 2017.

Thank you boss every helpful And plz do tell lil man thanks for helping with them papers

Im glad that fixed it for ya. I use WD-40 to clean the connector then apply the Dielectric grease. If it acts up again you can check the wires where they go into the tailgate and flex. Your new #InSaneFriends from Whitfield county GA

Great video. Quick, easy repair from the guidance that you were kind enough to share. Thank you sir.

That's the exact issue I'm having. Hopefully that will take care of it.

It worked for me ! Thanks

Worked great! Thanks man

Thanks for the Vid! Simple fix for messed up camera 👍🏻

Thank you it worked great on my 2016 Ram

Mine was the cable being squished between the edge of the tailgate and the bed. Just move the cable a tiny bit and it worked fine.

Great video!! Thanks for the help 😅

Thank you! This fixed my pixelcam!!!

Thanks for the video, I have a 13 ram but mine shows a blue screen when in reverse

thanks! This worked for me

This just happened to my ram and I guess this is the first thing I will be trying

Mine is just not picking up light. So it has the guide lines but everything else looks black at night and extremely dim during the day

I have a new 2021 RAM 1500 with only a little over 3000miles on it, and this morning the backup camera only shows a black screen with the Look behind you Regular Warning, and never displays the backup camera. Only Black screen. Also, at the same time, a Red Lightning Bolt displayed and will not go away. It normally only displays the lightning bolt for a split second during startup. Do you think the backup camera issue could be a wire connection issue in the tailgate like in your case? AND Do you think the Red Lightning Bolt on the dash could be a dirty throttle body? Already, with only 3,000 miles. It says 'Service Electronic Throttle Control'

Oh wow ima try this first before replacing it

My was good on my 2016 2500 and then one day I went to back up , the screen is really blurry now would it be that or something else

Easy fix, thanks so much!

You’re awesome. Thank you!

Thank you very much !!

Mine pretty much has this exact issue, but it only does that periodically, and all I have to do is open and reclose my tailgate and it works again for awhile, but it just does it periodically and all I have to do is reclose tailgate. Is this the same issue as here or would it be a different issue?

Thanks for sharing

If we do the grease, where does it need to be placed within the connector?

Now you'll have to find something else on the truck to beat on to make it work 😆

Mine happened when it’s get cold. Chrysler 300

Where do you put the grease?? And where did you get the cover for the truck bed?

My screen is in the mirror

I have same problem

Your kid brought u some mail, "thank youu" "your welcomee" 😊

Oh no, not your plates in display be safe

The symptom on your Ram is identical to my 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Between this video and another one here kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ebicbM2kltadZYk.html to help take apart the GC's tailgate I should be able to fix it.

I will never buy a ram again. Nothing but problems.

Dielectric grease isn't a conductor.
