Back up camera-2017 Chevy Silverado

How the heck do I turn off the back up camera? Reason I ask is I can't see behind the truck in the dark. Too much light from the screen in the cab of the truck.

We have two guys at work with the same thing. There is NO WAY to turn it off or dim it. They throw a t shirt or towel over it when it’s dark outside.

Thanks for the reply. I guess I have to get a piece of cardboard and velcro strips. Once installed I will drive it to the nearest Chevy dealer and ask. WHAT THE HECK WAS GM THINKING!!
Better yet take pictures and send to GM corporate.

There is, or used to be, a dimmer control for the dash/control panel lights on the left hand side of the steering wheel near the headlight controls, have you tried that?

If you have a valet mode I'd try that.

Tundras have brightness settings for the display. Not sure about Chevy's.

On 2015 gmc the interior dimmer switch will dim camera

On my buddy’s 2018 that backup camera sucks when backing up when it is dark. It will blind you. They sure did not think that through

i have the same truck and the same problem ! ---- gm has a software update that fixes the brightness --take it to the dealer --



i backed over my own mail box before i got it flashed --cant see nothin

My 2019 Silverado camera is great day or night.

gm has a reflash to solve this problem --had mine done after i ran over my own mailbox -- take it to gm dealer
