Default Back Up Camera Delay

My backup camera stays on for 4-6 seconds AFTER I place the gear selector in "D" and begin to move forward. It was not that way until just recently (had the Vette since mid-July - now have 2400 miles). I recall reading posts on this.

My Question: Is/has there been a warranty repair that covers this and if so what is it?

I did 4 or 5 searches using a variety of search terms to no avail. So please don't respond with a "search is your friend" response. Its not helpful.

Thanks.
Ed

Mine seems to be pretty quick when going into drive. Sometime there's a slight delay when going into reverse though.

Thx. Until several weeks ago, the delay was 1 or 2 seconds after shifting into drive. Your experience sounds like what mine started out as.

Pg 9-51 in the owners manual. My Cruze does the same thing. Believe the delay is normal operation.

Have a standard shift. It has a delay from time to time. Assume switching the display is a lower priority to some other function occurring with that processor, but that is only speculation.

On rare occasions, mine will have a significant delay when put into reverse.

It's normal, no need to "fix" it.

Thanks to all. Even though I read the manual when I took delivery, I didn't recall the "up to 10 seconds" delay. Just recalled some posts on the slow response time. Buts it's right there on the book.

Case closed.

I believe once you get to a certain forward speed the backup camera screen goes away. ...or it goes away after a set amount of time, whichever comes first. So, the faster you get up to speed the quicker the backup camera disappears. Not 100% sure though.

I haveCostal Lockpick in my Ford EB Flex that allows me to leave it on in rear mode all the time if I want. Great to watch cars behind in heavy traffic.

However, my biggest peave with the Ford system is that when shifting into "R" the SONY logo comes up and I have to wait for 4-5 sec... or just run into whatever is behind me...(LOL) This delay when going into "D" won't bother me at all when I get my new 2015 Vette.

My manual delays from reverse to forward gear. Sometimes longer than others.
