TRAILER REVERSE GUIDANCE –
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What does it mean if the system
does not detect a trailer that is
setup with a sticker?
• The system could be having trouble
identifying the sticker. The system
requires a clear view of the sticker
placed on the trailer. You must keep
the camera lens and sticker clean for
the system to correctly operate. If the
system cannot initially detect the
trailer, it could be necessary for you to
change the lighting conditions by
moving your vehicle and trailer or
waiting until the conditions change.
See Applying the Trailer Reverse
Aid Sticker (page 438). Deleting the
trailer and repeating the setup and
calibration could improve performance,
but some trailers are not compatible
with the sticker and camera system. If
the system consistently does not
detect the trailer with the sticker setup,
you may choose to setup the trailer
with a sensor.
Note: The system is designed to be used
with the same trailer connection every time
you choose the trailer from the touchscreen.
When using a different drawbar or a
different pin hole on drawbars with more
than one, connecting the drawbar to your
vehicle affects the trailer position and you
may need to repeat the trailer setup and
calibration process.
Why does the trailer not reverse
straight?
• The road conditions, such as road
camber and road slope, could affect
how straight the system can reverse.
You can compensate for the trailer
drifting to the right or left by slowly
turning the knob until the trailer is
following your desired path and then
holding the knob in that position.
• Other factors, such as the hitch
connection or trailer suspension, could
affect how straight the system can
reverse the trailer. You can
compensate for the trailer drifting to
the right or left by slowly turning the
knob until the trailer is following your
desired path and then holding the knob
in that position.
• The sensor could be incorrectly
installed. Make sure the sensor is
correctly installed.
What does it mean if the system
remains on one message for an
extended time during calibration
when setting up the system with
the sticker?
• The camera could require cleaning.
• You could have a blocked sticker. Verify
the sticker is in the proper location. See
Applying the Trailer Reverse Aid
Sticker (page 438).
• The drawbar could be outside of the
allowed range of 4–19 in (10–48 cm).
