Can I Get a Replacement Camera for the Hopkins Smart Hitch Backup Camera and Hitch Aligner System
Updated 11/28/2022 | Published 11/27/2022 >
Question:
Hi - hoping you can please help. I have a HM50002 system and the camera has failed likely due to Michigan weather. The monitor is fine I believe. Can I purchase just the plate camera of this product? Can you please let me know? Thanks in advance.

To replace the camera on your Hopkins Smart Hitch Backup Camera and Hitch Aligner System # HM50002 you will unfortunately have to get the whole kit again as Hopkins doesn't offer the camera only as a standalone replacement part. The good news is that the wiring should be plug-and-play and you'll have a spare monitor, but the bad news is that it's not as cost-effective as it should be.
We do have other backup camera solutions available (see linked selection) but most of them are at a higher price-point than the Smart Hitch system.
