Some Mitsubishi Outlander owners report experiencing issues with their backup camera not activating when the vehicle is put in reverse. This problem may stem from power or ground wiring issues to the camera, or it could be due to a software bug that causes the infotainment screen to go blank during reversing. Additionally, owners of 2018 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport models with a replaced head unit should ensure that the rear view camera activation is properly configured to display the camera feed. Some owners may also receive recall letters related to backup camera issues, prompting them to contact Mitsubishi for further information. If these troubleshooting steps do not resolve the issue, consulting a specialist for diagnosis and repair may be necessary, with costs for replacement typically being higher than for repairs.
