Have you tried pulling that trunk panel out and checking out the wires?
I did that yesterday to mine to remove the GT emblem to Plastidip it. One thing I did notice was when I put it back together & tested the camera, my lines too were gone with the trunk lid in the up position.
Soon as trunk was shut, the lines were back.

No dealer work was done on my GT. After pressing the magnifer the lines were gone and never came back. When the trunk is lifted to the open position the camera should have no picture & it does. It is glitch in the system. The unit might even be reading the trunk as in the "OPEN " postion when in reality it is closed. A misreading. I did not do the battery disconnect procedure for this reason. Software issue, probable. I have not brought the Mustang in for service yet.

Does yours show "zoom" button when backup camera is on?

It is in the zoom position, the button only beeps. Close up camera shot. My problem started after i hit the magnifier button. The picture will not readjust and the lines are gone. I have few miles on my GT. Probable dealer visit over the summer.

The issue sounds identical. Its got to be internal software issue. I checked my trunk wiring connections to the camera , they are correct. My prior S197 mustangs were ordered without the camera option. Go figure. You are probably in zoom .

Geez, who thinks up this crap??? How about a freakin RESET button or something??? This is as bad as the shenanigans they put you through to attempt disabling the auto locks! I say "attempt" because the ritual never actually works....

Time for the stupid questions.
If the luggage compartment lid is open or the steering wheel is in the straight-ahead position, the active guidelines are not shown.
Manual Zoom
The manual zoom feature is controlled by the rear parking aid video camera and has one level of zoom. If the manual zoom feature is on and the vehicle is shifted out of reverse gear, the manual zoom feature is disabled. The manual zoom feature must be re-enabled the next time reverse gear is selected.
When the manual zoom feature is turned on, only the centerline is present with no other guidelines even if the fixed and/or active guidelines are selected on.
When the driver turns the zoom on or off at the FDIM, the command is sent by the APIM over the HS-CAN3 to the GWM. The GWM then sends the command to the BCM on the HS-CAN1. The BCM sends the manual zoom request message to the parking aid camera via the LIN circuit. The camera then turns the zoom on or off.
When the driver turns the zoom on or off at the FCDIM, the command is sent by the FCDIM over the HS-CAN3 to the GWM. The GWM then sends the command to the BCM on the HS-CAN1. The BCM sends the manual zoom request message to the parking aid camera via the LIN circuit. The camera then turns the zoom on or off.
