E400 Cabrio Backup Camera Issue
I am having an issue with the rear camera when reversing, more than half the time the camera opens and immediately closes and a non available warning shows, has anybody has experienced this issue?
Thank you

My car had that symptom last week when my car was covered in ice and the cover for the rear view camera must have been sticking as a result.
I appreciate that ice may not have been a factor in your case, but perhaps the cover is sticking for some other reason...

My car has been four times at the dealer for it, camera was replaced, the encasing was replaced, it works for a month then it starts failing, is a mystery, that is what I get for taking delivery of the first E400 cabrio out of super early production (25th anniversary)

Perhaps there is a controller unit for the system which has a fault....?
Of course, it's your dealer who needs to figure this out and rectify the issue for you.
I wish you the best of luck in getting this sorted once and for all.

Sorry to hear about your camera problem. I noticed that you have a 25th anniversary model. I have the same car. I have never seen another on the road. Currently have 15K on the clock with no issues. Is yours rubilite? I believe they made some in silver. Hope you get to the bottom of your problem. Good luck.

Sorry for the delay, yes the 25th anniversary is rubelite red (I think it is the only color for this limited edition).
Finally the back up camera is working, it was the cable harness in the trunk for the camera, the final fix was done early Dec 2019 replacing the cable harness, it looks like one cable was pinched, the car is 26 months old.
