Rear Camera Delay

Is there any way to get the Camera to stay on when placing the truck in park? Was attempting to attach my Boat trailer on a small incline and when i put it in park it rolled a few inches.

If you activate the rear view camera delay (through your settings menu), you will keep the camera view until you put it in park or drive forward over 5 mph.
Unfortunately, putting it in Park will turn it off.

Set your parking brake to keep it from rolling.

I think he means, use the parking brake, so the truck won't roll when you put it in PARK. Then there is no need for the camera to stay on.

You may be right. I took it to mean that he wanted to leave it in reverse (or drive with the camera delay enabled) then set the parking brake and get out.

No, parking brake and in park together. I would never recommend only using the parking brake on an incline and only using it in conjunction with tire chocks for certain types of diagnosing like u-joints.
