B010F covers actuator F. On 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban and GMC Yukon with the rear camera mirror (RPO DRZ), GM service update N202311260 found the hose feeding the rear camera nozzle kinked behind the tailgate trim in about 630 vehicles; technicians test the wash, shorten the hose to 127 mm at most and slide an 85 mm split sleeve over it. A kink starves the nozzle without any electrical fault, so it would not explain B010F; the code points to the actuator circuit. The camera itself falls under FMVSS 111, which demands a rearview image within 2.0 s of selecting reverse and tests external camera parts for corrosion and humidity, yet sets no rule for a washer. Which camera F means is not published; no maker documents B010F.

Likely causes

Open or shorted circuit to valve or pump F
Wiring pinched or unplugged during tailgate trim removal
Actuator F itself defective

Symptoms

  • Camera mirror or reversing image stays dirty because the rear camera wash does not work
  • Rearview image itself is still shown when reversing

Repair estimate

DifficultyMediumDIY possible
Parts and labour€20–300
Time0.3–1.5 h
