Walmart is a renowned retailer known for its wide variety of backup cameras, including car backup cameras. It employs a third-party to install the backup camera to the vehicle at your selected time and place.

What is a Backup Camera?

1. Label

Backup cameras are not the backup of anything. They are cameras designed for the safety of toddlers and senior citizens. The monitor turns on when you reverse your car and shows you the area right behind the number plate. It should not be confused with a rearview camera, which can be turned on at any time; anyhow, backup cameras only work while reversing the car. ..

2. Position to Install

The backup camera is a device that is installed either below or on top of the windshield. The camera is pointed in an earthward direction and it is designed to see objects sitting behind the car. The objective of this type of camera is to make it easier for you to look at the scene from the back of the car on the front fitted monitor without turning around or adjusting the mirrors.

3. Power

The backup camera in your car uses the same battery as your stereo. The camera takes 1-2 amps and the monitor takes 4.5 amps. However, using the same battery does not usually cost a fortune. However, it is recommended to install a separate switch ON for the camera to avoid draining the battery.

4. Monitor and Camera purchase

A monitor and backup camera can be purchased separately, depending on the vehicle’s demand.

5. Price

Walmart is currently offering installation for its backup camera service at a price of $139.99. This price includes the installation of the backup camera by Walmart’s own in-house specialists, so you are not expected to pay any additional fees. ..

6. Warranty 

Walmart offers a lifetime installation warranty for cameras that have been bought from Walmart stores. The warranty is three months if you want to change the product or refund. Once the warranty time has passed, there is no way to return the product.

How to Install Backup Camera?

  1. Open the car’s door and remove the battery cover.
  2. Remove the screws that hold the car’s front and back glass panels in place.
  3. Pry off the adhesive backing on each glass panel and remove it from the frame.
  4. Place one of the glass panels on top of the other, so that they are both facing outwards (you should now have two glass panels).
  5. Place a screw into each of the gaps in between the two glass panels and screw them into place (the screws should be facing down).
  6. Replace both front and back glass panels, making sure to reattach adhesive backing where necessary.
