There are numerous reasons why the rearview camera on your Subaru Outback may not be working. The primary issue is often related to a software glitch, which can usually be fixed by resetting the software or seeking assistance from the dealership if needed. Start by trying to reset the system yourself and then move on to the next step. The next step involves checking the fuse for the camera, as it can frequently blow and may be the cause of the problem. If that doesn't solve the issue, other potential culprits could include a faulty switch for the camera or compromised wiring near hinges and moving parts. Additionally, camera failure itself can occur, particularly if water seeps in around the lens seals.
