Using the reversing camera at any speed?
Evening all,
Does anyone know if theres a way to prevent the reversing camera being disabled when above 10mph? (of whatever the speed is) Would love to be able to use it to keep an eye on my trailer when towing as it's too small to see in the mirrors, always nice to be sure no straps have come lose or anything. Thanks |

Its controlled by software, using speed data over the CAN bus
So rewrite the vehicles software to change the behaviour - which of course you cannot do. Can a passenger activate the camera when at speed for a brief period? I am not sure.

You can use a dash cam placed on the rear window and wired to your infotainment system,can't you.

Only if the Volvo infotainment system has a spare AV IN port you can use.
