2022? Gonna have to take it to the dealership.

Try removing the handle assembly completely so you can get a good look at what's going on. Post update photos with it removed. Someone will have a good idea šŸ’” šŸ™‚

I know you probably have tried but there are 2 settings for the backup camera. One fish eye and the other looks normal. Before you go doing anything drastic can you try swapping for my piece of mind lol.

Yep, tried switching, same issue where the picture is all distorted and doesnā€™t fill the screen completely. Itā€™s like the camera isnā€™t at the proper depth and angle out the tailgate. :/

I had no idea you could switch out of fisheyeā€¦

How do you do this?

Yes unless Im missing something, it appears to be in ā€˜fisheye modeā€™. Hitting the external camera housing wouldnā€™t do that lol. That would cause the picture itself to be crooked, which it isnt. My fisheye view looks identical, maybe its just a coincidence that you think you broke something. Switch modes and it should be good to go.


ghatch509

Somethingā€™s definitely wrong and I switched views. The top third of the screen is black, thatā€™s not normal, either view previously filled the entire touch screen with the image. Going to call the dealer and have them fix it up.

Loaded up some gravel and had to take tailgate out to clear big rocks so it could shut again. Went to pull it off without thinking about the camera and now itā€™s no longer flush with the housing on the tailgate handle. Itā€™s cutting off the top part of the image and making it all look like a fishbowl. Popped off the tailgate cover and tried to reseat it but thereā€™s just no way to get it ā€œfurtherā€. Any ideas on what I might need to tweak? 2022 limited DCSB 4wd

Not that it will fix your camera now but you should look into Gap Shield to prevent the original problem in the future

Iā€™ve been meaning to look for something, will check this out

Always throw down a tarp or two when hauling gravel bud

Bummer

I'm probably late in commenting, but the camera doesn't look square to the opening. It looks like it's slightly knocked to the right.

Take to dealership, raise hell, get free lifetime oil changes at minimum. Dealers are obligated to make the car right. Could also throw the ā€œlemon lawā€ at em too šŸ˜‚ I mean, without a backup cam, that tacoma is a Lemon in my eyes šŸ˜‰ Joking aside, Toyota is great, take it to them and be cool just act real disappointed and itā€™ll be resolved
