If it's cold the camera doesn't work for the initial reverse out of drive, rest of the time perfect
I just think JLR electronics and more sensitive and prone to gremlins than other marques
Agree with cj10. My old XF used to do this. If it was damp or cold the reversing camera would not come on. My FType does the same. With the XF once it got over 21 degrees outside all the electronics and the boot opening worked fine. It is like it said "I can't be bothered today"

Figured it might have something to do with CarPlay so switched off the IPhone and stopped the engine and restarted, still nothing other than the sensor, no camera. Parked it then switched off, shut everything down and then started again, still nothing. Will have a look later when I go home but anyone else come across reverse camera not engaging in reverse gear? Have I inadvertently switched something off? Is it a known fault?
Did you get to the bottom of this. Still happening to me on occasion. No idea why.
