Rear Camera (OEM Ford Kit) Foggy - Easy to Replace

[howson]

I had to replace the camera that I use on my trailer due to the lens "fogging". This post is just gee-whiz info for anyone considering Ford's kit.



This same "fog" happened with the front-facing camera in my truck's grill. You can see the foreign material (no way to clean or remove it) on the camera on the left. The one on the right is the replacement.



It was very easy to replace--the exterior case that holds the camera is held together with two screws. Most difficult part was figuring out the part #! A shout out to Txfivver
who helped me figure it out. (Seems easy since there's a number right on the camera--but that's not the right one! The correct part # for just the camera is HC3Z-19G490-C.)



If you haven't read the full story on the camera or system I use and are curious, the full story is here: https://gdrvowners.com/forum/exterio...7701#post17701

Howard that looks great, glad you got it replaced. Mine is at the dealer now for the residential fridge install and they are installing my Ford camera kit as well. I must give a shout out to bertschb (Brian) for giving me the idea to run the cable forward on the roof and down the satellite access hole into the front bay.I pick it up this Wednesday and will post pics as well. Glad yours in working again!
