Glad i found you folks, and my thanks to you for reading this and considering my problem(s)!!!! Having issues that are mainly with the rear camera display (which is the only one i have), but have noted other glitches on the "MFT" (why don't they call it an MFD like the rest of the world?). The primary issue has been "sporadic no video in reverse" over the last month or two, which is getting much more frequent. We get that horrid message to contact our dealership. If i can DIY it, i would much rather. I dunno, maybe it's because in 1981-1982 i worked in a Ford dealership... (Actually, i enjoyed it-). Just in case, i did check the battery voltage with the car off and was at 12.56, as i was thinking a battery going bad can create all sorts of weird issues, but battery seems fine (as much as i can tell as i never worked with a hybrid before). I have noted many posts of the issue, but yet to see anything that definitively was cause and resolution of the issue - one person pulled the fuse, reinserted it, and all was fine. Heck, according to the manual: "The fuse panel is located under the instrument panel to the left of the steering column.". I already attempted to see this panel expecting it to look like any other fuse panel i have dealt with but as i couldn't see anything that made sense (unless it was wayyyyyyyy left and they use the code name "Airbag" for fuse panels these days), i'm going to have to have another look, this time with some padding for my knees. Another person replaced his camera and now has picture, but lost any backing up aids. I did note that in the manual it said something about the camera not working if the trunk was open (i think) and we have used the trunk frequently as of late. I suspect due to this i would like to check any inter-switching, but other than tear apart and guess, i am clueless, so if someone out there, a nice Ford tech, can advise, i sure would appreciate it. I did try opening and closing multiple times with no success. I only can hope it is a simpler procedure than when i recently replaced the headlight bulbs... The secondary issues include For a half day it appeared a thumb print was burnt into the screen There was an instance about a week ago that it didn't matter what i pressed on the screen, it wouldn't change. Any and all help y'all can offer is greatly appreciated; i'm afraid the days when i could just bring a car into the dealership and not worry about the bill are long gone. Thank you, -Bruce P.S.- Recently did the trans shift bushing repair myself. Funny how many videos are out there for the non-hybrid versions, but i could not find anything for the hybrid. Thankfully after some swearing i followed the shift cable to the front of the engine compartment and found the darned thing!

I have a 2015 FFH SE. Is there a setting to allow the rear camera to stay on driving forward? According to this part of the video and the comments (under user Civrock's reply) the driver says it is.

A few days ago, I was in an automatic car wash with my 2013 HyTi and my daughter (who was sitting in the passenger seat) said, "Cool!" and pointed to the MFT screen. The rear view camera was showing a view of the car wash on the MFT screen. I double checked my gear shifter, and it was in Neutral, as it should be when the car wash's rollers push the vehicle along the path. You can see in the picture below that the dashboard shows the vehicle in Neutral, but the rear view camera is on and showing the car wash. Why would the HyTi do this? When the car wash was complete, I put the car in drive and the camera view went away.
