    When I start the truck, HU is normal.
    Switch to drive, all is normal.
    Switch to reverse, all is normal.

    Switch from reverse (with camera) to anything else (park, drive, etc), screen goes black. Shortly thereafter, HU will reboot. Radio quits, then returns after the reboot. Phone reconnects, etc.

    Anyone else having this issue? What did you do to fix it?

    I reread your post and saw that it is after you use the camera. So the camera works normally then when switching back screens it reboots. If this is correct then you are dealing with a software issue. More than likely. If you have the ability to do a firmware update on the deck by USB flash drive or whatever is available, this is more than likely nothing more than an error in the software like when a phone freezes up and reboots the Interface to fix itself when it is unable to force close it.

    This issue never resolved itself, but disappeared when I replaced the battery.

    Probably just coincidence, but I’ll take it.
