There could be a few reasons why the backup camera in your 2013 Ford Explorer isn't working. The most common issue is a blown fuse, which would typically trigger a no signal warning. However, this alert could also be caused by loose wires or a camera that needs to be reset. If the display shows a black and white static image resembling an old TV show, it's likely due to wire problems as some wiring is in close proximity to the ground and may fray or get damaged. If the screen is completely black, this is usually because something isn't connected properly. Make sure the camera is plugged into the video feed, not the aux cable, especially if the car recently underwent auto body work or detailing. If the picture appears but is distorted or blurry, simply cleaning the camera lens with a microfiber cloth should solve the problem.
