Review on πŸš— Rear View Car Camera Monitor with Alarm Parking Sensors System, Reverse Safety Distance Scale Lines, Waterproof Night Vision Angle, 4.3" LCD Video Display for Vehicles - Pyle (PLCMPS48) by Bret Wong

Revainrating 1 out of 5

The monitor is poorly constructed and only lasted a day. The monitor is poorly made.

I won't buy anything from this seller again. The backup system monitor stopped working after a day. The camera works great and looks good. The monitor is made of thin plastic and comes with a ribbon cable that allows the monitor to be slid from its closed position. This cable is very thin. I connected another monitor to the system and the system worked proving that the monitor was the failed component. I contacted Revane and the seller to have the monitor replaced. The seller refused to replace only the monitor. The seller informed me that I would have to remove the camera, sensors and wiring from my car and return everything to fix the monitor. The installation wasn't difficult, but it took a lot of time and of course I already drilled holes in the bumper for the sensors. It wouldn't be worth the time and effort to remove the backup system, return it, and reinstall the repaired system. It would only be a matter of time before the repaired monitor stopped working. The camera and 3 out of 4 sensors work great. A sensor has a very short range. Monitor design errors due to ribbon cable location. I salvaged the system and replaced the monitor myself.

Pros
  • PROTECTIVE DESIGN: The car DVR works well no matter the weather conditions. Maneuver down the street in a storm with a fogproof camera and IP68 waterproof rating
Cons
  • Not bad
