[Solved] My F770 just stays in park mode.. [Solution: ACC cable wasnt connected]

[Merko]

Hello.

After some months my F770 didnt power on anymore, so I got a replacement unit from the seller from Ebay (very fast and quick service).

Now when I got the replacement unit, it doenst look like it work properly.

When I power on the engine etc, the camera doesnt power on. When I power it on manually using the on\off button it starts up, connects to GPS and says something like "Continues recording starting" or something similar. I can also enable the Wi-Fi. But after 15-20 seconds it says "Entering Park mode", then shuts down Wi-Fi etc. No matter what I do, it wont leave the park mode. If i turn the camera off and on again, samething happens after 15-20 seconds.

Any idea why it does this?

have you checked both the power wires, no fuse issues, good earth etc?

The ACC wire isnt getting power. This wire tells the cam that the car is on otherwise it will go into parking mode.

Check the connections and the fuse.
