Wrangler Back-up Camera Backwards or Upside down Image

There have been a few reports of the camera image being in reverse for the Wrangler Back-up Camera Kit. I took a moment, and rotated all of the cameras to the correct position, but I did not cut either of the wires. So it's possible that the next set of cameras going out will be upside down when first installed.  If that is the case, skip down to the wire loops at the end of this article. This KB will be useful for anyone who receives the Brand Motion Wrangler Camera Kit.

The first thing to address, is the camera orientation. Take a close look at the camera housing on the spare tire mount. If you see the arrow/triangle facing the ground, it is in the correct orientation. If the arrow is against the metal of the mounting bracket, it is in the wrong orientation.

This is in the CORRECT position (Note, the camera isn't always straight when it arrives, just adjust it with your fingers, as the screw hole mountings are made of aluminum and can bend into a better position)


Just take the screw off of the side, pop off the camera housing, and insert it back into the opposite side screw slots (matching the photo above), then insert and tighten the screw.



Power cycle the vehicle to see the results of the camera.

If the camera is now UPSIDE DOWN, you just need to pull the sheath back on this connector coming from the camera to the main loom. So you'll have to pull the tape and peel it back around the harness until you expose the ribbed plastic wire casing. Pull the sheathing down a bit, and you should see these two wire loops, a white one, and a green one.



Cutting the white wire straight and clean through the middle will reverse the image, so the results should be the correct orientation. Tape off the ends to the white wires so the copper will not touch each other. Then you can re-tape the loom using the same tape you peeled back. Power cycle the vehicle and check the camera image for accuracy.

*NOTE* Cutting the green wire, like the white above, will GIVE the camera static guidelines if they are not currently present on the back-up camera.
