Brendan: Hello - sorry to hear about your problem! Just out of interest (I don't have a MIBII unit), does the right side reversing light work when you have trouble with the reversing camera? The reason that I ask is because the initiating signal for turning-on the reversing camera comes from the right-side reversing light.
Not sure if you know about wiring diagrams, but here's my pared-down version of the pertinent bit of the circuit
You can see the that the video signal from the RVC connects to PIN #6 & 12 of the infotainment unit (the MIBII), but the initiating signal comes from the reverse switch which makes the BCM (Body Control Module) produce a voltage on PIN #64 (connector T73a - which means the 73 pin connector on the "A" socket). Now PIN#64 also supplies power to the right side reversing light - hence my question
Hope this all makes sense - sorry if I have confused you

Please don't PM to ask questions about coding, or vehicle repairs. The better place to deal with these matters is on-line, in the forum proper. That way you get the benefit of the expertise of the wider forum! Thank you.
