THE 15% OF THE TIME PROBLEM SOLVED
Sure there are some that will ask you why don't you just shift it into reverse to get the camera to turn on. There's some pretty good situations where you just want to verify what's behind your vehicle and don't necessarily want to back up.
- Pulling through a parking spot and making sure you clear the parking spot behind you
- Pulling into a garage with limited space and making sure you will clear the garage door
- Verifying there is space behind you when pressed for time
- Verifying your surroundings
There are actually a good number of situations where you don't necessarily need to reverse or don't have the time to keep on putting the vehicle in reverse and drive over and over again.
A simple push of this button will activate your reverse camera. When you're done, push it once more to turn the camera off. When your vehicle is in reverse the camera will still come on automatically.
NOTE: This harness will also activate the reverse lights when used.
