Default Reverse camera after Sync 3 upgrade

Hi.*

2014 Ford Focus TDCi 2.0l Hatchback. I live in Australia.

I recently did a Sync 1 to 3 conversion. Everything is working perfectly except my reverse camera which intermittently works and when it does the image is grainy. It worked perfectly on the original *4” screen.*


I ordered a 2016 camera to test as the APIM/ACM was pulled from a 2016 wreck and it loads ok but it is black and white. I’ve reinstalled the original camera again until I can work it out.* If someone can tell me how to get the Mk3.5 to show in colour I’ll reinstall it and make mounting adjustments to the MK3 bracket.


I’ve heard about running a LIN calibration or a reverse camera calibration but I can’t find where in ForScan to do either of these. They aren’t in my BCMii module.*


I do have firmware updates available but want to do that as a last resort.*I don’t have the paid version of ForScan only the 2 month trial so I need to upgrade to do the firmware updates.

Not a single suggestion across 2 posts. Hardly worth being in this group. Goodbye.

Even more so now they have stopped selling them here. We have a 2014 LW Focus Sport 5-speed manual petrol and love it! They are a solid little car, handle well and feel nice to drive. A bit down on power but very economical! Would love to be able to upgrade the maps for a reasonable price though :-(

All good. I ended up working it out and everything works now.
