Most other causes for this static is simple electrical interference. Does the problem occur when the car is running, just when the ignition is on but the engine isn't running or both?

If it only occurs when running, check your connections and look for ways to shield the wiring from whatever is causing the interference.

Also if you have anything "bluetooth" running (like your phone), see if the problem replicates without bluetooth OFF. Cheaper cameras can be affected by bluetooth believe it or not.

Please reply to each question separately as my brain just works better that way when we deal with each problem one at a time.

Also please clarify the following sentence as I don't quite understand the meaning:
"And i had to disconnect a reverse lamp. Because when i m in reverse the reverse light works like the orange one..."

OK thanks, yes I understand what you mean on the light problem. This could to be unrelated the the static on your screen so we can address that one later.

The camera you used should be fine.

Do you have the problem when the ignition is on and the car is in reverse, but engine is NOT running? I ask because you want to eliminate interference from the ignition system.

Also, same question with Bluetooth not connected and connected.

Connect the camera directly to the video interface bypassing your wiring
If it still has lines you have a bad or incompatible camera

It would also help if you post a pic of what you are seeing on the screen

Cheers

That Pic does not seem to load, can you edit your post and reload

Also let us know if you tested the camera directly connected to the video interface

Cheers

Camera looks good as you have colour
Some cameras don't have 525 lines producing that type of result

I would Suggest checking the camera on your TV
Also connecting another (ntsc) video source to the navtool to test that

If the camera is OK on your TV try it again connected directly to the navtool and use a battery for power

If the image is then OK you have a cable/power or interference issue
If the camera is the same on the TV you have a bad camera
IF the image is ok on the TV but bad on the Navtool, after doing the above, your navtool is the issue

Its a process of elimination till you find the bad part

Cheers

Bravo!

Would be nice if you could make a tuto (giving the references of the components you used and describing in detail the procedure you used) to allow others to do th same.
