Hi All, My car has a reverse camera mirror fitted, earliear it gets switched on for reverse gear without any issue. But now it is not getting on for reverce gear. But if I manually switch it on after putting the reverce gear I can see it is working. When I change the gear the display does not get off (Shows empty blue screen) and I have to manually switched off. Can sombody help me to figure out the issue. Thanks, Pra.

Thanks for reading my post. We got a Mitsubishi L200 Double Cab which runs with a 4D56 non turbo engine, and a manual transmission gearbox. The odometer says its done 500 000+ kms, but I think in reality its done a lot more, since we bought it second hand. It has been the workhorse of our family for years. The problem we experienced is when the reverse gear is engaged, and the clutch is released, the vehicle suddenly stops as if we press the break very hard. It does not stop the engine, but the vehicle abruptly seize to move as if we are pressing the break paddle hard. When I tried it myself what I felt is that something gets stuck in the gearbox, clogging up everything. I did not dare to fully release the clutch because I was afraid it might ruin the whole gearbox. The gear leaver position does not change, and pressing or pulling on the gear leaver had no effect. We replaced the clutch and pressure plate, and replaced the gear-oil about 3000km ago. We started to experience the problem last week and its been happening more and more often by the day. Does this mean that we'd have to go for a new gearbox? or is this repairable? Gee... that's one weird explanation of the problem. But I guess its as weird as the problem itself...
