I couldn't find any previous posts on this... I have the customer placed (installed) Ford camera on my 5th wheel. It works great in that it show the picture but I have 2 nitpicks that are pretty annoying:
1) There are no guidelines shown for the way the trailer will turn. When using the pro trailer backup assist (press the button, turn the knob) it does show the small truck & trailer icon with the angle of the trailer in relation to the truck but this does little to help to know which way the trailer is actually headed.
2) Whenever going from reverse to forward to reverse again I have to reselect the trailer camera which seems really stupid. If that's the active camera (and it's still plugged in) why not default to that? The default view is the tailgate camera which gives me a great view of the fifth wheel's lower front. ugh. Anyway to get it to remember the camera or default to trailer cam when plugged in? Maybe via forscan?
Thanks!
