Default Back up camera stopped working

I have had my truck for almost 6 months now and just the other day i put the truck in reverse and the camera didn't automatically come on....so i put it back in park and tried it again, and nothing......it worked perfectly up until a few days ago.....has anyone had any issues like this with theirs?

There's a harness that runs up into the tailgate. Might want to make sure the wiring didn't get pinched or the harness disconnected.

Kinda obvious since the lockpick has to do with dvd in motion and mostlikely your rear cam is hooked to it?

I had my truck for about eight months and my nav and radio went blank a few days ago, I also have the lock-pick. After a few hours of trouble shooting I finally decided to disconnect the battery for about 10 minutes and all is well now. First time that ever happened otherwise the system runs flawlessly.
