Is there a way to wire a relay up with time delay for this unit. I want to be able to make changes to the GPS while I'm driving but you can only do it with the parking break latched. I tried a relay that goes ground using the remote turn on lead but that did not seem to work. Any suggestions on how to do this?

Is there a lead for a neg switching parking break? If so just permanently ground it, problem solved.

Amateurs assume, don't test and have problems; pros test first. I am not a free install service.
Read the installation manual, do a search here or online for your vehicle wiring before posting.

That doesn't work. The unit resets the "green ground" when it turns off. I have seen people run toggle switches but to me that does not look right.
