Backup camera image upside down

Hey everybody, just recently purchased a 2011 F10 535i and the backup camera image appears upside down.

After lots of researching, I found out that this is definitely a software glitch and one person mentioned that "The dealer had to re-initialize combox" to fix the issue.

Can you please explain how to do that? I do have a ESYS cable and just did some basic coding. Although I'm not familiar how to do the re-initialize process. Please point on the exact steps if possible!

VO coded TRSVC module, no change. I was hoping that would reset the module, but no luck
Any ideas on what else could be done?

Sounds like a reasonable solution hahah
Unfortunately it's impossible as the camera module has it's own triangle shape and it just won't work



Coding gurus pleeeeease
Any ideas on what can be done? Based on the information I have so far it's a software issue

You need to run an initialization with ISTA, nothing you can do with esys.

Speaking of the back-up camera...


I've scoured the OM and the interweb and can't find the answer. Anyone know the distance between the lateral distance lines on the camera?
