Default Rear camera problem

I searched for the problem, it seems that mine is doing something different.
When the car shakes alittle the image on the screen flickers and I get Service Rear Vision. I disconected and reconected the plug, same thing. My display is fine (seems other people had problem with the display itself).
I don't have an american GM dealer in my country, so it's up to me to fix it...would a new camera solve the problem ?

Where does that wire go? Does it go up to the module in the drivers kick door? Maybe check that connection too?

The camera I found on CULTRAG which may or may not be right, is $120, kinda expensive for just a maybe fix. Here's the listing I found:

Yes, I had the same problem with flickering rear view camera and
random "Service Rear Vision" black screen, Took it to dealer several times and they could never get it fixed.
When I installed a Z06/Z07 rear spoiler on my Z51, I had to remove the rear fascia. There are two connectors behind the fascia, one for the tail/turn signal lights and the other for the rear camera. This is the one that I disconnected/reconnected to install the spoiler and since then my rear camera has worked great. I have an early 2014 C7, S/N 1459 and figured they had some initial problems.
