Rear view camera and tank monitors kuput

Getting ready to leave for Durango and when I turned on the monitor this is what I get! AV 1 is the tanks and propane and AV 2 is the rear view camera. Has always worked fine up until this morning. The camera was installed in August of 2013. It and the tank monitors still use the original Audit 2U9 system. No fuses blower and all connections are good. Coach is always plugged in when home. Haven't done any electrical work so I'm stumped. Any thoughts? Could a 2U9 computer have just failed? TIA!
 UPDATE! The tank monitors are back as they should be!

Try a different monitor. Your input may be bad. Try switching the two inputs. Try a different camera.

Switched the inputs and no joy. Don't have a spare monitor or camera to swap out. Time restraints have me taking coach to a car audio shop in the morning. Everything points to the camera. We shall see.

I was not a fan of the audit system in my coach (terrible graphics), and it didn't work from what I could see anyway.  The camera didn't work either.  I ended up replacing with a wireless camera setup and See Level tank monitors.  Not a quick fix while you are on the road.

Richard : Welcome to the club. Spent 4 hours at cummins RV repair in Bakersfield working out a charging problem. Solved it without their help thanks to Chad at Foretravel tech support. As usual pilot error ( mine ). Hooked up the new alternator and mistakenly hooked up exciter wire to regulator instead of positive lug. Will fill you in on all the details in Durango.

Took coach to a small car audio shop close to home. They were kind enough to squeeze me in on Tuesday to look at it. Took the tech 10 minutes to determine the camera was not working. Bought a new camera and had him install it and used my existing cable.
 All told was a little over 1 1/2 hours work. Left the next day for Durango.
 Steve, spending the night in Holbrook then on to Farmington Elks lodge then Durango. Steve, see you and Lori saterday.
