Connect Hunt

I have a 2014 Transit Connect and a 2013 F150. Both have issues with the rear view backup cameras. They function intermittently at best. I'd like to get an Apple IOS / iPhone compatible scan tool capable of diagnosing rear camera backup issues. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Fifty150, you said: "I have a feeling that you will need a diagnostic with a computer." Do you have a recommendation for a computer for this type of diagnostics? I have been looking at getting a FORScan ELM327 OBD2diagnostic coding tool for Ford. Do you have a scan tool you recommend for Ford vehicles? I have both a 2014 Transit Connect and a 2013 F150 5.0. Both have malfunctioning rear backup cameras. Any advice would be again greatly appreciated.

Thank you so much. This will be a great help.

I have a 2014 Transit Connect XLT with the lift-gate rear door. My back-up camera malfunctions: anything from a blue screen,or a notice to take to the dealer to get it fixed, to normal operating for a while then quitting. Sometimes the view is upside down. Anyway, the use of the back-up camera is not at all reliable. I called the dealer and he suggested the camera would need to be replaced. I have found a Ford replacement camera and I need to know how to install it. I can find no instructions or videos on camera replacement on a 2014 Transit Connect with lift back rear door. Do I remove the rear interior door panel to replace the camera? Any guidance on replacement would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
