rear camera monitor

in our old 2006 sunova the monitor is still cathode ray tube (CRT)
always worked before. today after sitting for a year it showed nothing. vehicle has about 20K miles on it.
pushing on/off got some light flashing on the tube.
what does a new modern one cost? maybe it is the camera of course.
as everything is Chinese made junk is there a least bad model?

voyage observation system VOM-7SN

thanks all

    Before you start replacing parts, check to see if the connection came loose on the back of the monitor. From what I understand it's quite common for the manufacturers to "forget" to put on a clip that prevents the wire from working itself loose on the Voyager systems.

    IF we have to replace the old monitor...
    it hangs from the ceiling.
    do modern ones have that feature? of course it is where the wires are.
    thanks

    I mounted mine from the ceiling which puts the monitor upside down but there is a "flip" setting that inverts the picture. I think most do that but I'd verify to be sure.

    Were you able to find a cure to the ailing monitor system?

    I saw nothing obviously wrong - it goes to the tech next wwek.
    thanks

    replacement kit

    okay we have the kit.
    does anyone have a picture of it replacing our old monitor that hangs from the ceiling?
    I wonder where the aluminum bracket is supposed to go.
    thanks all
