Default Backup Camera on IS350

Hi There,

1st time posting on CL, tho not a stranger here.

Just got my 2014 IS350 F-Sport about a wk ago!

Love the car! But just noticed a slight issue this morning...

When put into R, the backup camera image seems fuzzy, out of focus. Do any of u have similar issue? I will try to post an image a bit later.

If u guys have experienced similar issue, did u take it back to Lexus to resolve?

Thanks!

Try to wipe the camera lens first. It is located right above your rear license plate.

Go into the camera setting in the menu, car config section. Adjust the contrast, resolution, etc and then while still in setting put the car in reverse and check the image.

I have done this and got my camera to crisp views from the camera. It may have been adjusted by someone playing at the dealer ship.


If you need help pm me and ill shoot out my number and ill walk you through it

Here's the view from my camera. The picture quality isn't as good as the image quality in person.
