Back up camera - no picture after disconnect

Just picked up out coach from some post delivery PDI repairs, and a few tweaks. This resulted in a full battery disconnection.
I noticed that the Pioneer CD/Radio/Camera Screen combo's radio set stations were gone, and that the picture to the rear would not come on. Figured it would just need some fidlin to get up and running. I've pushed and stroked and turned and talked to, just about every combo of buttons and knobs on the radio head - still no picture. And, no Pioneer manual or 'how to' reset the radio/camera to work with each other again. (Got most of the manuals, a few were missing.)
I did call the dealer, and they said to bring it back by and they would help re-program the unit. But figured some of you might be able to save me that drive, and tell me the 'secret set of buttons' to push.
As the dealer has offered to help me, please don't take too much time if it is not a simple thing to explain. I'll just go back in and take good notes...
Thanks,
Smitty

The default mode is off when battery is interrupted. Go to menu in setup and turn camera on. It will be off when you find it. Have done this many times.

At work now, but I don't recall seeing a 'setup' menu ever pop-up as I went thru different buttons. I used Source quite a bit, is their a combination of buttons that need to be pressed (or possibly held, I counted to 10 on several buttons) to get into menu?
Don't know the model number. This a Pioneer head unit, that has the CD player in it, as well as the 12 multi disc and XM. No TV Tuner option. The screen folds into the unit at power off. Suppose I could get the model number when I get home, and see if I can find and online manual. I think the camera is not part of Pioneer, but is a TV 2 station, or Aux Input type RCA plug in. Does that sound right?
Possiblity as the dash area was worked on, that besides the power loss, a cable could have been shook loose of missed when rehooking back up...

Appreciated the input!

Press A.Menu on remote to bring up the configuration menu Select initial Settings
Select rear speaker

Press the right arrow button on remote to set S.W. Control to External Press and hold Source button on radio to turn the radio on Press A.Menu on remote
Select Audio

Select Non-Fading

Press the right arrow on the remote to change level to +6 Press the Back button untill the screen shows the main menue Select Setup

Select Video Settings

Press the right arrow to change the Video Source to Backup Camera Press the back button on the remote to exit programming menu.

Now, you're in business.

Good luck.

Thanks all! Picture is restored, I can now go backward as fast as my investments!!
I had the full '1 1/2 minute' demo by Holland RV's Master Tech Billy! Wroted down the combo of buttons, and just made a copy of Georges reply too.
I went back with the coach to review a few more things, and was laughing at myself at how quick and easy Billy made it look...
So a remote comes with this too? I have one for a Garmin that was not in the rig. Wonder if the 1st owner has a Garmin he's trying to control with a Pioneer remote!!

Best,
Smitty
