Ford Escape Backup Camera Replacement | 2013 - 2019

[@JohnFuller-bp3lf]

Wow, absolutely perfect instructions. Ford wanted $700 to replace it ($450 for camera and $250 labor. With your camera suggestion and on point instructions, I did it for $167 and 45 minutes. Big thanks

[@BigBensCarsAndCycles]

You're very welcome!

​@@BigBensCarsAndCyclesDoes all 2013 Ford Escape have a backup camera?

[@TerryMcWhirt]

Thanks for the video. I followed your directions and it now works great. Got my camera on Amazon for about $55. Took me less than an hour and I have never done anything like that before

[@BigBensCarsAndCycles]

Awesome!

[@cduncan1128]

Thank you. I was quoted 700 parts and labor. I bought the part for $35 and it took me 40 minutes.

[@MisterT2212]

Excellent video. The fact you took the time to go through the panel removing process was awesome. Kudos.

[@j4yma1ette]

Great video thank you! My backup cam is failing and I was hoping the job was something I could do in my driveway. This gives me confidence to tackle it. 👍

[@BigBensCarsAndCycles]

Awesome! Glad to help

[@markszumowski1488]

Superb Instructions!! Loved that he told you what size Deep Well socket and Torque screwdriver were required. I have a 2014 Escape Titanium Version with Powered Lift Gate. There is a Button on the hatch you push to close tail gate. When removing the Large cover, there is a short cable to the connector for this Button you need to pay attention too. Other than that, the rest of the step-by-step instructions made the camera replacement a breeze to complete!!!

[@BigBensCarsAndCycles]

@markszumowski1488 glad it helped! Yeah there should be a connector on the other side of that

[@danielgag8852]

Great video. This helped me do the repair. It only cost me $25.00 for the part on Ebay and 45 minutes of my Saturday. It couldn't have been much easier. I did have to unplug the auto close button for an option your car didn't have, but otherwise video was spot on. Thanks for the help.

[@SignakoPro]

Thank you for the tutorial. Father In-Law and I were able to replace this in 25 minutes.

[@BigBensCarsAndCycles]

You're welcome. Glad to help!

[@bcc63]

Super easy to do! Didn't even take 30 minutes! Great video!

[@quinmccarthy4414]

Thank you! This was super easy to follow. Just like the other comments. Took no time and just some money for the camera

[@tonyrodriguez9670]

Thank you for this video. Very helpful. The way you explained help me a lot.

[@GenePicciafoco]

Fantastic instructional video. This actually gave me the confidence to tackle this project. Thanks.

[@BigBensCarsAndCycles]

@@GenePicciafoco you're welcome!

[@danobrien3695]

Great video! As an added step, I'd definitely, do some cleaning 🙂...

[@brianchurchman7948]

Awesome video. Thanks for taking your time and explaining everything!

[@InsecureCrab]

Thank you for the video, sir. Saved me a bunch of money.

[@PoirotFanGirl]

Awesome video! My error message for my 2017 Ford Escape says "camera unavailable" so I'm guessing this fix would work.

[@BigBensCarsAndCycles]

Glad it helped. Yes, most likely.

[@PoirotFanGirl]

@@BigBensCarsAndCycles really well done video, I'm going to attempt this fix on the weekend 💪

[@FranciscoPena1975]

Thank you very much for this video, it will be very useful to me since I have to change my camera and the good thing is that it is the same model in your video... I have a question now I have to change the gear lever, do you have any model What can I buy?.....any suggestions?

[@BigBensCarsAndCycles]

Hi, it really depends. I found one on ebay for 2013-14 escape 2.5 with select shift, but please make sure its right for yours www.ebay.com/itm/286009736301

[@kendavis1198]

Is this process the same on a 2014/2018 FORD EDGE???? CAN YOU USE THE MOTORCRAFT (I THINK) XG12 DI ELECTRIC GREASE???

[@BigBensCarsAndCycles]

I believe it is a very similar process. Once the lift gate trim panel is taken off any variations should be obvious

[@Clake52]

My camera works some of the time. I wonder if it's a loose connection on one of the plugs.

[@Shdwcst48]

Ours does the same thing. Ford told us it just needed a new camera. They wanted $950 to do it, hence why I am watching this video now lol. I’ll let you know if it actually fixes it.

[@matthewennis849]

Following this too!

[@Shdwcst48]

So far, so good on the new camera I installed! I bought the Dorman brand off Amazon. It was around $100-$150 Fixed the intermittent issues we were having.

[@jackhu2049]

What size of the tool do you use to remove 4 bolts inside of metal back panel, sir?

[@BigBensCarsAndCycles]

@@jackhu2049 10mm nuts hold that back panel on

[@jackhu2049]

Thank you so much!!! Literally at Home Depot and your reply coming in! Much appreciated!

[@jackhu2049]

@@BigBensCarsAndCyclesgot it replaced and functioning! Thank you!!!!

[@GreyRockOne]

Thank you, on my 2016 Escape, the image displays upside down, is that more likely the camera or something more involved? Thanks!

[@BigBensCarsAndCycles]

Thats most likely the camera

[@GreyRockOne]

@@BigBensCarsAndCycles Thanks, that would be the easiest fix!

[@jeanluc4220]

What issue does this fix. My camera glitches out, inverts, stays on reverse cam after I shift to drive then I get message to have technician look at it. Feel like it started doing this after I did radio SW update. 2014 Escape Titanium.

[@BigBensCarsAndCycles]

Typically those are symptoms of a bad camera

[@DK-gg3mw]

What tools did you use to take the 10mm nut off since it’s so deep in there

[@BigBensCarsAndCycles]

extension + 10mm socket

[@DK-gg3mw]

@@BigBensCarsAndCycles thank you! Would a racket screw driver work as well?

[@DK-gg3mw]

@@BigBensCarsAndCycles the 10mm socket is not working for me. Do you need a Deep socket ?

[@bigfish3238]

Can't remove those two screws on my 2017 mkc (on the handle) , try the torx 20 screw driver can't fit in, it's hard to see the screws also, any suggestion?

[@BigBensCarsAndCycles]

@@bigfish3238 I'd shine a flashlight on the screws and see if they're a different size

[@michaelgray3494]

Does the 2013 ford sel have the harness. I have one and want to put in a camera. Is there any steps to it or is the harness there

[@mikekelley8216]

What's the camera part number, I can't read it.
