2016 Mercedes S550 4Matic (W222)
Rear Backup Camera Opening then Closing Issue

Hi All,

I have a 2016 Mercedes S550, i’ve recently started having an issue with my rear view backup camera. The car is equipped with the 360 view, And when Ipush the 360 view camera or put it in reverse. The rearview camera will open and display the camera view for approximately one or two seconds and the rearview camera will close and turn off the camera. Any ideas, even if I try to hold the camera open it will turn off after one or two seconds. I disconnected the camera reconnected and I also disconnected the trunk lid mechanism that opens the camera out. Any ideas or solutions to this

All I can say is my 2017 did this no more than about once a month, but my 2019 hasn't failed me so apparently the issue has been fixed. I would take it to the dealer and let them fix it. Sorry I have no further knowledge of it.

This is a dealer fix or use Xentry to find the issue.
