swaingh Posted October 14, 2018 Report Share Posted October 14, 2018 My backup camera goes black more than it works. I've already checked the wiring harness so now I'm thinking it's the camera itself. So a few quick questions: Does anyone know the OEM part number for just the camera; not the assembly with the lights and the rear hatch handle. How much is a new OEM camera? Where can I find a new OEM one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2late4u Posted October 15, 2018 Report Share Posted October 15, 2018 mine has been doing that lately have a 2014 journey i think its more of a wiring problem than the camera . because it wont work at first or it flickers and then a couple of stops later on it starts working again.. oh well till some one finds the cause we all will be in the dark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OhareFred Posted October 15, 2018 Report Share Posted October 15, 2018 Check the wire loom in the rubber boot at the rear hatch. Common problems with wires breaking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Common problems with wires breaking Already checked the wiring loom and found a frayed wire. I soldered it and retaped it which seemed to fix the flicker, but it's just going black even after the fix. It works for a few seconds, sometimes, and then goes total black. That's why I'm thinking the camera?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only were Dodge Journey's rare in the junkyard, but when I did find one they were completely stripped. Camera was the first thing to go.
