Possible Moisture Inside the Furrion Vision S Wireless RV Backup Camera System  

Question:

After washing the RV with the hose, brush, dry, now the backup camera has moisture inside the lens. Cannot see a thing other than what looks like I am inside a cloud. Any recommendation to get rid of this moisture?

I suggest first off to ensure that the washing hasn't simply placed a fog over the lens caused from a residue. You may be surprised how often this is the cause opposed to actual moisture inside the device. Hopefully you find this to be the situation and then once cleaned, I suggest coating with Rain-X, # SLMRX11806D or a similar hydrophobic.

If you do have water within, I have found that the best way to remove acquired moisture from electronic items such as the Furrion Vision S Wireless RV Backup Camera System, # FOS43TASF, is to use a desiccant of some type. Place the item, in this case your camera that has been removed from the RV, in to an air tight container along with the desiccant for an extended period of time to draw out that moisture. Some have had success using a quantity of dried uncooked rice, placing the rice, being used as a desiccant, in the oven on low until evenly and thoroughly warmed. Submerge the electronic item in the rice, cover and seal so that the rice only draws out the moisture held within the electronic item and not ambient content as well. I suggest placing the camera into the desiccant in an orientation that allows gravity to pull the water toward area of the housing that allowed it to enter in the first place, making for an easier exit of the moisture.
