We are new here. Just bought a 2022 Reflection 315RLTS and really enjoying it. Wondering something. There is a camera for backing up, but can not find any information about how to use it. Anyone have any information on it?

Jimmer -- did your 315 come with a backup camera? Can you help this new owner?Forum moderators are not GD employees--we are volunteers and owners presumably just like yourself.

I have the same trailer and same year. It comes with the Lippert connect app (Insight camera) It uses your phone as the monitor for the rear camera. Be aware the app has terrible connection issues. The camera uses its own Wi-Fi and just does not connect well. I contacted Lippert on this and they weren’t really helpful. I ordered their 7in monitor which has an antenna on it. I just got it in, it took over a month to get here from them. I connected it and seemed flawless in the driveway which the phone app was not. I’ll link the monitor on the site below. Hope this helps. I’ll know more how it works on a trip soon. It is cool it has audio so you can have someone spot you and hear them through the monitor.

note: connecting it took me a while to figure out. There is a black button on the bottom of the rear camera you got to press hard and hood it a few seconds. Then it will connect.

My new 2022 303RLS came with the rear camera installed as well. I haven't been able to get it to connect with my phone yet...after multiple attempts.Mark & Yvonne

What is the make and model of the installed camera? Did you see the note in post #5 about holding down the button?Forum moderators are not GD employees--we are volunteers and owners presumably just like yourself.

My 2022 28BH came with the same camera. I did manage to get it connected to my phone, but did not want to have my phone tied up as a backup camera and its really to small. Also i did not like the picture, so i pulled the LCI camera and replace with a camera that i had on my travel trailer. Mount was close enough to work. I already had a display for it and the picture was far superior to the Lippert. So that camera now sits on the shelf with everything else that i have pulled out from the camper and replaced.Al and Diane

I just got finished fighting with the new insight monitor for my insight camera. It would not connect. I got on the phone with Lippert and the customer service guy went through every possible step with me. I was able to finally get my phone to connect but the picture quality at my truck is horrible. One of the problems was that when I was pressing the reset button on the camera to put it in pairing mode or to reset it, no led lights would ever flash. The cs guy said "well, sometimes they don't". So, he decided that they are going to send me another monitor kit and see if that works.
I just don't understand why GD would continue to install these cameras knowing that the customer is going to have to end up buying another monitor for it. And to boot, it may not work either...

I just got mine today. Of course, there were no pairing instructions; no instructions at all. When I turned on the monitor, it sort of walks you through the pairing procedure which wanted me to push a button on the camera. Finally found it and tried to push it (it's level with the housing). Finally I downloaded some instructions and they were slightly different than what the monitor was saying. Basically, I needed a pen or paper clip to push the button and in the process I inadvertently reset the camera, which caused it to pair! So, I'm going on an RV trip this Monday for a week. We'll see how it works. I did keep the box in case I need to send it back to e-Trailer.Bruce and Michelle - and Callie (GSD)
