I am disappointed in the quality of the original black and white monitor and 3 back-up cameras in my MH (2008 Itasca Suncruiser 35L). There is not enough contrast or brightness to actually see much in most situations.

I would like to upgrade to a color monitor. Does that also require replacing the 3 cameras? I assume that the installed cables would still be usable.

Any thoughts?

I foresee a couple of problems.

A multi-camera setup needs some sort of video switcher. This may be part of the monitor. If you replace the monitor you would also need to add a switcher.

Power to the cameras may come from the monitor. If this is the case, the video signal and power may use a single multi-wire cable.

Make sure the image on the monitor is a mirror image. Some monitors and cameras can be switched between normal or mirrored.
