If it's possible, power the camera and monitor directly from the battery with the vehicle off. That will eliminate any interference from the vehicle's charging system as a cause.
If you were not running inverter/converter, overhead lights, etc, it may be a bad monitor. I'd still try it hooked directly to a battery that is not connected to anything else. If it still has the problem, I'd be asking for a replacement.
