Side view video camera system

mikeannetta · 11-15-2016, 08:35 AM

I have a 2016 Sunstar LX 35F with the SideView Video Camera system connected to the Pioneer AVH-X2700BS01 Radio. I contacted Poineer with this question but was told that " they don't have a video switcher in our unit" and for me to contact Winnebago.
My question is it takes about 8-10 seconds for the video to come on each time I turn on the right or left turn signal. I love this safety signal, but wish that it would turn on immediately like my car system works. Is this normal? Is there something that can be done to speed up this video signal?
Has anyone else experienced this and was able to fix?

How is the video after it does turn on? Double check your wiring and cables? I'll be interested to see other suggestions...

Sorry I can't help more!

I'll let you know. I did send the mirror manufacturer "Velvac.com" customer service this question. Lets see what they have to say! Thanks

2011 Meridian had the side view cameras. The block out the view of the rear camera, which is the most useful, Side view camera usually gives you a nice view of a sidewalk or ditch, neither of which are useful. I opened the dash and just behind the radio was the connection box that controls the cameras. Removed the 2 cables for the 2 side cameras and now everything works as needed (No side cameras blocking out view of rear)

Our 2016 Vista LX 27N with the same radio has the same delay. Not aware of a fix. Side cameras pretty much useless

I don't have that issue on my 2014 but I don't have the Pioneer radio. I have a Jensen.
I would take a look at the control box which is in the dash somewhere near the radio. It should have 3 black cables coming into it along with a power cable and an output cable going to the radio. Check the connections and make sure they are tight.

" I did 2 things that not sure which one helped the most? I upgraded the Pioneer Radio's Firmware to Version 8.50 that was released July 22 2016. I also had the Backup Camera video on all the time while driving. I turned that off and it now take about 2-3 seconds to show the directional image. This is much more acceptable! "
