Turn my camera off and when I go into my truck the camera is on. This happened a few times, now I will need to unplug it when I pull into my driveway.
What do you think is going on here? I wait for the led to start to blink knowing it will go off, but it comes back on!
 
I will check it again, I did this once already but I will check and get back, thanks

You're tapped into a fuse that controls another system. Had exact same scenario when I first hardwired my car. I'd shut camera off, or so I thought, and come back and find the camera turned on. Wrote it off initially as forgetting to power off camera when parked in garage. But then I noticed when I hit the power lock to lock doors and fold mirrors, camera would turn itself on.

Long story short, I found another fuse to tap and problem went away.
