2010 F150 Rear Sensors and Camera failed

My 2010 F150 backup camera and rear backup sensors both went out at the same time. I searched this site and I did find where others had backup camera or a sensor that went out but not both at the same time. I did try locating a common fuse but I cannot locate a fuse for either in owners manual / google or in this site. I did see on other threads suggesting fuses for the backup camera alone. I checked these and they are fine.... The reverse lights still operate fine..... I am curious if anyone can help solve what they have in common that would take them both out at the same time? Is there a switch in the console? Appreciate any help

Mike

I would check the connections.

IIRC, the backup camera and the sensors are on the same harness. There could be corrosion or it got unplugged.

I appreciate that feed-back! Are you aware if this harness is located under the bed or is it in the console?

Judging from the picture, I'd be confident to say the connections are under the bed which end up connecting to a main harness.

Thank you... After removing the spare, I traced wires to connectors where I unplugged, cleaned and inspected then re-connected the ones I could reach. The rear sensors ARE working and I can't be confident that was due to this process but they are working. The issue remains that the back up camera and the trailer lights are not working. This is how I discovered the rear sensors worked as I backed up to the boat trailer to test the connection. I have replaced the fuses that have any label to do with tow or trailer. The trailer light harness is the same as the rear sensors but the camera is on a different harness. I am trying to learn if there is a circuit breaker for the trailer lights and hope it is the same for the camera. Another note: Last week when I started the truck the dash lit up with warning lights indicating multiple errors. Then it cleared to the ABS light staying on. I shut off the truck, restarted and it cleared all warning lights. I suspect there is an electrical issue somewhere and I am lost on where to search next. Appreciate any other thoughts or clues you may have.
