Thank you so much for this video! I got a replacement camera from Amazon for $55. Followed your video and was able to replace the old camera in a little over and hour. Saved me a ton of money! Thanks again!!!!
Thanks for the video, the video and instructions saved me a lot of money. I’m not a very mechanical guy, and did it less than 35 minutes thanks to your video.
Awesome! Glad to hear!
Thank you for this tutorial! It helped me fix my camera in no time and I NEVER work on my car. My bank account appreciates you lol
So glad to hear this! 🙏
Man.. i cant thank you enough for this. The dealer wanted $600 for the replacement and I just did it in 30 mins for free. Much appreciated for sharing this!
Awesome! Love this! Thanks for watching! Don’t forget to like and subscribe!
The best video I've seen on replacing the backup camera! Excellent to review the tools someone will need BEFORE they start in on the job as we all know how it sucks to get started and need to run to the store for something like a torx bit (you should update the list of tools btw). Your step by step is perfect as I just watched a video that just ran through the camera replacement and pointed to where the bolts/screws/torx are located - yeah, good luck with that. Thanks again, subscribed to your channel, appreciate content like this greatly! (BTW, thx for video sans music.)
Thank you! 🙏
I saw you link this video on Reddit and finally bit the bullet to try to find a solution to the dreaded "Return to Dealer" error message that plagued me for years.
I was able to perform the replacement on my 2014 in about 1 hour with the caveat that I broke the two exterior screw housings when I made the final yank of the housing off the rear of the car. I am still not sure how you were able to remove the housing so cleanly but I am still incredibly happy with the improvement.
Thanks Bob. Followed your step by step process to replace my bad camera on my 2016 Fusion Titanium . Saved myself tons of cash & time. I also used the link to Amazon to order part. I was able to swap it out in less than an hour. The end results are positive. The wife is happy…”Happy Wife, Happy Life” 😄😄
So glad to hear this!
Thank you Bob! Great step by step video! Was able to replace my father in laws camera doing the same thing as yours in the video. Saved almost $900 vs the dealership quote! Appreciate you!
This is awesome! Thank you!🙏
For all those that have a 2013 Ford Fusion and want a Ford OEM camera, the camera from the MKZ can also be used in the Fusion as well (per Ford). Much cheaper also. Ford Part# EP5Z-19G490-A. Most sites only list the Ford # ES7Z-19G490-A as the only option for Fusions. An aftermarket option is TRQ brand Part# ADA05221.(these all have the green/yellow/red boxes and guidelines) Hope this helps.
Thank you for the excellent tutorial. I'm not a mechanic by any means but felt confident this was a project a novice could do thanks to your walkthrough.
So glad to hear!
Bob thanks for this video. I actually have a 2013 Fusion SE but the instructions you provided here worked perfectly for me. I bought a good quality camera on Amazon for $60. The dealership quoted me $620 for the part (yes, that is not a misprint!). Then there would have been labor on top of that! In about 1.5 hours, I followed your instructions and had the camera replaced! Thanks for this great tutorial!
So awesome to hear this! I was also amazed how much the dealer wanted for the camera. Thanks for your support! Don’t forget to like and subscribe it helps out a lot!
Hi, is the $60 amazon camera good quality? I need to replace mine but i want to make sure that the quality is acceptable
It’s comparable to all the other cameras I would assume the QC may not be as good but who’s knows nowadays. I’m sure they are all being made out of the same factory..
Great Video! I was able to replace the camera in my 2016 fusion in a little over an hour thanks to you. I did not have that ratcheting wrench and I wish I would have. Thanks again!
@daveboteler6211 awesome! Glad this helped! I was shocked at the price difference. I have been seeing it more and more and when I do I make a video!
Thanks for the video. Much appreciated. Clear and concise. A couple more screws and push clips and you can get that whole trunk lid liner entirely of the way.
Agree it’s just a little bit more work to get the handle and the latch cover off. Thanks for the support! Don’t forget to like and subscribe!
Awesome, thanks for the video! Saved me some money!
Good job
This was probably one of the most in-depth helpful guides for us Fusion/MKZ owners who have this issue.
I drive a 2013 Lincoln MKZh while its mostly the same car as a Fusion the body panels can be different. Would installation be similar?
Also did you have to configure the new camera with your MyFord system?
I’m sure installation is similar, that being said I have never done one so I would have to look at it and see what’s different if anything.
This camera was plug and play I have never heard or had to program a camera in the handful of cameras repairs I have done.
Tnks great video, just you forget to put that piece en place 14:58 min 14:59 the white piece
It’s possible but if I remember right I caught it and pulled the light back out to install it correctly. This video is not live and has a lot of cuts and out takes..
Thanks!
Thank you so much! Glad I could help!
Thanks for the detailed and easy to understand instructions. Would it work the same with 2015 Ford Fusion Hybrid SE?
It would be similar.. same idea just have to see where all the connection points are for each trim piece..
The dealer just quoted 500 for the part. I got an aftermarket one coming from Walmart for 25.99+tax free shipping.
Took me about 1 hour. I really had trouble with one clip, but my camera is back!!!
Thanks Bob. I replaced mine with the exact one you have but my camera isn't centered. Is there any way to correct this?
I have no idea without looking at it to see exactly what it is doing. Some things to check. 1. Make sure it is fully seated in the camera bezel. 2. Make sure the camera hold down is also fully seated and screwed back down. 3. Second does the camera look different or damaged compared to the camera removed. 4. Maybe try returning the camera to Amazon and getting a new camera.
If this all doesn’t fix the issue it may need to be looked at by a professional technician to diagnose further.
Thanks again!! 🙏🙏
Awesome video. Can you post a link/manufacturer/model to the camera you used? Thanks!
I did put a link in the description, thanks for watching I really appreciate it!
I see it now thank you. Ordered one from Amazon. Should be here tomorrow and then I’ll install. I’ll let you know how it goes. And thanks for the video! It was heady.
Just installed it in my mom's 2013 Ford Fusion, but now the camera is always on. What'd I do wrong?!
No idea, that is a crazy symptom something is telling the radio to switch on the video feed. Could be the wrong camera? My recommendation is to pull that camera back out so you can have your radio back. You may need someone to professionally diagnose the issue.
Thanks for the great video! What would you consider a reasonable price if I were to have a workshop do it?
Honestly it depends on what the book time is to replace the camera. If the book time says 1.5hr labor than your paying their labor rate for 1.5hrs. Hold the shop to the book time. Get a couple quotes so you know you’re getting a fair price.
@@Bobsgaragetech I replaced the camera last week and it works fine now. Thanks again for the video. I’d say the hardest part is getting the whole piece out and putting it back in. It looks way easier in your video😄
@chrisxu4832 yes I think I stated that was the hardest part, I also have 20+ years of experience as a mechanic. Thank you so much for the support I love hearing feedback back!
@@Bobsgaragetech my fear is I have hands/fists like a "pot roast" so am concerned about my ability to get into access the camera... but it's my wife's car, so...guess who's going to volunteer?
I have a 17 sports this wont work for me
Why is that?
truck design is different.. my camera works but the graphics go on and off @@Bobsgaragetech

JEEZ!!! Could you possibly LOSE the music so we could hear 100% of what you're saying, instead of 50%"???
Noted I’ll make sure to send you my videos for approval before I upload. Thanks for watching..
I can install these in my sleep, but can I share this video with someone...heck no.
