    Did you clear all the codes ?? After replacing the compressor. It's in a hard fault state so unless they are cleared not just read it won't reset and work again until you do.

    Other What camera system are you using?

    Well the dash cam allows you to switch from front view to rear view there mite not be any need for it but it does it. The night vision is also superb iv never had any trouble taking stuff off the sd card either.

    Other What camera system are you using?

    The rear camera is stuck to and mounted on the inside rear. Top centre I tend to leave it set for rear view it's crystal clear auto dims car headlights behind me. You can adjust the camera angle view swiping your finger up and down on the interior mirror.

    Other What camera system are you using?

    It clips over the existing mirror. The camera is inside attached to the new mirror picture 1 camera off so acts as a normal mirror. Picture 2 is the forward camera view it can be switched to either front or rear camera or both. Picture 3 is reversing camera auto switching when in reverse.
