Answer:

It is really hard to say for sure what is happening there. If they all worked fine before but now they are not?

I would try some troubleshooting by taking all the cameras off line and testing them one at a time to see if you can tell a difference.

It could also be that some moisture has gotten into the cameras as well so I would check for that.

I would test all your cables as well. Again just go through several steps to see if you can narrow down or eliminate the problems.
