Backup Camera (image On Screen)

[valeman]

Hi,

I bought my car in Feb'07. In April'07, I noticed 1-2 times that there was a straight thin line running vertically across the screen when I was backing up. I noticed this thin (whitish) line, once or twice. It didnt reoccur after that.

I noticed the same line (shifted to a different location on the screen) recently. I again saw it 1-2 times and now when I backup I dont see any such line.

• Has anyone reported this issue?
  
• Any suggestions? The car is under warranty for a the next few years, so I am not super concerned, but should I report to a dealer about this ASAP? Given the sporadic nature, its probably going to be difficult to reporoduce this issue.
  

Suggestions welcome and thanks in advance.

Is the sun behind you when you notice the line? I haven't noticed it in the car, but I get the same type of thing on the LCD screen of my digital camera when shooting into the sun.

I agree with the sun comment, to my knowledge lexus hasn't released and TSIB's on the back-up camera display, I'll double check the database.

And the manual says that is what you will see when the sun is behind you.

Thanks for all your replies. I havent paid particular attention, but I will keep that in mind if I see it again.
