This topic has been covered here before, but in this case I'm looking for a very simple, ie one or two component solution that is not mission critical if it doesn't work every time.
Essentially I have a small relay that triggers a switch on a reversing camera setup when the car is put into reverse. This works fine, however I don't want it to trigger the relay when car is taken from park to drive. There is a split second where the shift lever passes through reverse that I don't want to activate the relay.
I am a complete novice, but figured that some sort of resistor capacitor combination would give me the split second delay I need, especially since I am only driving a relay and nothing else.
I can purchase a time delay relay but I'd rather use the relay I already have and have something that fits inside the existing box.
Thanks,
Mark
