Hi,
Daft problem which at first I put down to a build up of snow which fell recently but it seems since then (don't know if coincidental) I'm frequently finding the reverse camera covered in bubbly screen wash & a big pool of it sitting on top of the bumper. Doesn't seem to do it everytime reverse is selected and it happens without having used the rear wash wipe.
Any explanation to when this is supposed to operate or to why it doesn't seem to be working as it should?
Thanks

Ben, just enter for example „Rear Camera Cleaning System“ in „Search“ and read through the Old Posts. It sounds like you have System Problem if it is in fact installed on your QQ. There were more photos originally posted on these but some have been omitted. At least these facts might help you as it is also an „Auto“ and not „Manual“ Cleaning - Dave

Ah so it's an "intelligent self clean" system interestingly linked to the blind spot monitoring as this too has been alerting me to lots of fresh air beside me from time to time.
If I wipe of the excess screen wash dispensed the image is crystal clear so puzzled as to why the system thinks it needs cleaning. Perhaps explains why after clearing this excess accumulation of bubbles it stops trying to clean it. Maybe to air blower is blocked & unable to clear it automatically.

Ben, could be like all Computers sometimes they have a mind of their own. Incidently I had a big problem trying to convince our Nissan Dealer that there was in fact this system - Dave

Here is an explanation on this system from a Nissan Note (2013) which might interest you. Obviously the Dealer is not going to be nice as the QQ is now out of Warranty but £500 does seem hefty although guaranteed the Nissan Part Cost is also high - Dave

Assuming you have had serviced regularly at a Nissan dealer, you could ask them to make a goodwill claim under warranty.

What a rip off !!
If you were near by, I would diagnose it free of charge for you and if indeed a pump was an issue, you could buy one for fragment of cost from crashed J11. I believe you wouldn't pay more than £50 for all.
