Wow, absolutely perfect instructions. Ford wanted $700 to replace it ($450 for camera and $250 labor. With your camera suggestion and on point instructions, I did it for $167 and 45 minutes. Big thanks
Thanks for the video. I followed your directions and it now works great. Got my camera on Amazon for about $55. Took me less than an hour and I have never done anything like that before
Superb Instructions!! Loved that he told you what size Deep Well socket and Torque screwdriver were required. I have a 2014 Escape Titanium Version with Powered Lift Gate. There is a Button on the hatch you push to close tail gate. When removing the Large cover, there is a short cable to the connector for this Button you need to pay attention too. Other than that, the rest of the step-by-step instructions made the camera replacement a breeze to complete!!!
Great video thank you! My backup cam is failing and I was hoping the job was something I could do in my driveway. This gives me confidence to tackle it. 👍
Great video. This helped me do the repair. It only cost me $25.00 for the part on Ebay and 45 minutes of my Saturday. It couldn't have been much easier. I did have to unplug the auto close button for an option your car didn't have, but otherwise video was spot on. Thanks for the help.
Thank you very much for this video, it will be very useful to me since I have to change my camera and the good thing is that it is the same model in your video... I have a question now I have to change the gear lever, do you have any model What can I buy?.....any suggestions?
Hi, it really depends. I found one on ebay for 2013-14 escape 2.5 with select shift, but please make sure its right for yours www.ebay.com/itm/286009736301
Ours does the same thing. Ford told us it just needed a new camera. They wanted $950 to do it, hence why I am watching this video now lol. I’ll let you know if it actually fixes it.
So far, so good on the new camera I installed! I bought the Dorman brand off Amazon. It was around $100-$150 Fixed the intermittent issues we were having.
Can't remove those two screws on my 2017 mkc (on the handle) , try the torx 20 screw driver can't fit in, it's hard to see the screws also, any suggestion?
What issue does this fix. My camera glitches out, inverts, stays on reverse cam after I shift to drive then I get message to have technician look at it. Feel like it started doing this after I did radio SW update. 2014 Escape Titanium.
If you want to save some time and don't mind a slight modification (which can't be seen), this is how I did the job: th-cam.com/video/viI7Rvvf_74/w-d-xo.htmlsi=7aHu9RZYev9Ghcox

@markszumowski1488 glad it helped! Yeah there should be a connector on the other side of that
Great video thank you! My backup cam is failing and I was hoping the job was something I could do in my driveway. This gives me confidence to tackle it. 👍
Awesome! Glad to help
Thank you. I was quoted 700 parts and labor. I bought the part for $35 and it took me 40 minutes.
Excellent video. The fact you took the time to go through the panel removing process was awesome. Kudos.

Thank you! This was super easy to follow. Just like the other comments. Took no time and just some money for the camera
Super easy to do! Didn't even take 30 minutes! Great video!
Thank you for this video.
Very helpful.
The way you explained help me a lot.
Thank you for the tutorial. Father In-Law and I were able to replace this in 25 minutes.
You're welcome. Glad to help!
Fantastic instructional video. This actually gave me the confidence to tackle this project. Thanks.
@@GenePicciafoco you're welcome!
Thank you for the video, sir. Saved me a bunch of money.
Awesome video. Thanks for taking your time and explaining everything!
Great video! As an added step, I'd definitely, do some cleaning 🙂...
Is this process the same on a 2014/2018 FORD EDGE???? CAN YOU USE THE MOTORCRAFT (I THINK) XG12 DI ELECTRIC GREASE???
I believe it is a very similar process. Once the lift gate trim panel is taken off any variations should be obvious

Awesome video! My error message for my 2017 Ford Escape says "camera unavailable" so I'm guessing this fix would work.
Glad it helped. Yes, most likely.
@@BigBensCarsAndCycles really well done video, I'm going to attempt this fix on the weekend 💪
Does the 2013 ford sel have the harness. I have one and want to put in a camera. Is there any steps to it or is the harness there
My camera works some of the time. I wonder if it's a loose connection on one of the plugs.

Good tip to take a picture
Thank you, on my 2016 Escape, the image displays upside down, is that more likely the camera or something more involved? Thanks!
Thats most likely the camera
@@BigBensCarsAndCycles Thanks, that would be the easiest fix!
What size of the tool do you use to remove 4 bolts inside of metal back panel, sir?
@@jackhu2049 10mm nuts hold that back panel on
Thank you so much!!! Literally at Home Depot and your reply coming in! Much appreciated!
@@BigBensCarsAndCyclesgot it replaced and functioning! Thank you!!!!
What tools did you use to take the 10mm nut off since it’s so deep in there
extension + 10mm socket
@@BigBensCarsAndCycles thank you! Would a racket screw driver work as well?
@@BigBensCarsAndCycles the 10mm socket is not working for me. Do you need a Deep socket ?
Can't remove those two screws on my 2017 mkc (on the handle) , try the torx 20 screw driver can't fit in, it's hard to see the screws also, any suggestion?
@@bigfish3238 I'd shine a flashlight on the screws and see if they're a different size

Typically those are symptoms of a bad camera
Very helpful
Thank you

What's the camera part number, I can't read it.
Inquiry,, the installed camera is generic or original
OEM (original)
@@BigBensCarsAndCycles Sorry, where did you buy it, I need one.
In Amazon
@jessyt.348 here's an aftermarket one. Amazon doesnt hace oem. You can get that at the dealer amzn.to/4cLVnTI
@@BigBensCarsAndCycles thank you 👍
I can't do this.
I believe in you!
