The rear view camera on my car stopped working one day.
A look inside reveals why.
Size comparison:
High resolution:
Basically, many years of road grime was seeping inside the poorly sealed camera capsule.
The PCB seems fine, but several components are corroded.
New one cost around $400, or $150 from China.
Which is a little too much for a $0.001 worth of problems.
So, i want to fix it, and step one is cleaning up the corrosion.
At least to see what is connected and what isn't.
What is a good way to do it?
I don't want to scrub or touch it much, since many parts are dust sized.
Soak it up in isopropyl alcohol?
Wash with orthophosphoric acid?
Something else?
