CAT Backup Camera - Can it be fixed?

[@OrangePeel911]

Mine quit during warranty, they replaced it, it quit again just after warranty. Same deal, works better in the winter and when first starting until it moves.
I'm going to try an aftermarket camera from ebay for $15. I'll keep you updated.

You just saved me from destroying one. I appreciate your efforts!!!

[@jrschannel1515]

I think it would be worth a shot to epoxy and silicone it up (after you clean up the wires) and see if it works.

Anythings worth a try at this point. My Cat dealer said that they have over 1000+ on backorder right now. I'll try using some electronic cleaning spray and adding dielectric grease for the connections too. 😩

@@matthewtE Did the repairs you do work? Ours stopped working too:( Really sucks - expensive camera - thanks for your efforts:)

@dellefairclough5309 I replaced the camera and that fixed the problem. Expensive, but worth it.

[@dellefairclough5309]

@@mr.putzer any guarantees the next camera will not have the same problem???

[@mr.putzer]

None. The only things guaranteed are death and taxes.

Damn it, that sucks! 😂 Great timing though! Mine stopped working a few days ago too. I usually repair most things myself, so this is a real shame. Thank you for showing us what's inside of it 👍
