    Backup or other camera/sensors

    "Since owning this car the back up camera sometimes freezes in back up camera mode especially when I try to connect to my gps system when my car is in my garage or near my house.

The only way to undo the freeze which also makes the camera eventually go blank is to turn the car off and park for at least 20 minutes to reset the camera."
