You get what you pay for, I guess

This is a fairly low end unit and overall it seems to perform ok, however, I guess I wasn't ready for one of these flip up units to require the user to manually pull out and flip up the screen. The documentation is poor, at best, but I could not find anything that said that you had to manually pull the screen out. Every one of these I have ever had or seen has a motor that opens the screen and closes it. I thought it was broken but in pulling to see I could not feel any kind og resistance as if there was an inactive motor there. The second issue I'm having is that it does not want to remember the correct time. I keep setting it but it keeps going back to a day later (as if the setting for the time zone was wrong but it only lets you set that once during the initial setup since I can't find it anywhere else in the settings mode) The other issue I had was that the power wire to the camera within the cable somehow broke while feeding the cable towards the front of the vehicle. I had tested it and everything worked until it didn't. I had to run a separate wire for the backup signal in order for the camera to work. I won't buy any more stuff that doesn't have some reviews already. I guess I was the guinea pig on this one ;-)
