2013 MKX Intermittent back up camera

Recommended Posts

I have a 2013 MKX with a back up camera that is intermittent. It has been coming on, then not coming on for years. When it does go out it shows a message on the display screen that the camera is unavailable and to contact a dealer.

 

I would like to check the wiring of the camera first to see if that is the problem before purchasing a new camera. 

 

There are numerous videos out there of people changing the cameras on their Ford Edge...but the lift gate is different on the outside where the camera is mounted than on the MKX. 

 

So does anyone know of a video that shows how to change out a 2013 MKX back up camera? If so can you please share it with me. 

 

Thanks.

Thank you...I've seen this video.

 

It's better than nothing but it doesn't show how to pull the camera out or put the large panel back in place...in the one shot you can see the panel lying in the back of the vehicle with a lot of pieces sticking up that I am guessing need to be snapped back in to place. Taking the camera out is likely simple...one screw...but my concern is how do you put the panel back in properly and do some or many of the clips that hold it in place break when you yank down on the panel.

 

Any other more detailed video?

Use panel tools to pry out. Panels pop out (clips don't break). To mount, center panel over frame and hit over fastener with palm. Pops right bsck in.
