hardwire

Hi there. I need to hardwire a dashcam, radar detector, and a laser jammer. I just bought a 2025 Buick Envision and both the interior and exterior fuse panels are always live. I tested this after the car was off for a considerable amount of time, the key fob wasn't close, everything, and I can't...

Just wondering if anybody has hardwired a dashcam to their 2022 Chevy Bolt EUV Premier yet? I have got an A119 V3 from VIOFO that I would like to install, but I am not sure the cigarette lighter (Power Outlet) fuse is labelled in the Instrument Panel Fuse Box schematic... Also, I am interested...

Hi everyone, I have posted this on Reddit. But I am making my rounds. But I am trying to wire my dashcam for my 2015 Lincoln MKZ. I am running into some issues. Mainly tapping into fuses. It appears that Lincoln and Ford have Retained Accessory Power (RAP), which means that some fuses remain...

Viofo A119 Mini 2 dashcam hardwired with HK4 kit. All connections correct and verified. Sometimes it worked properly and mostly it did not. Stayed in parking mode while driving. Thought it was the dashcam or GPS module, but switched out a new one with the same results. Firmware update, no...

I need to install a couple of fuse taps into an already crowded fuse box (I have a disability hoist installed), which is causing me some issues. The main one is that the fuse taps overlap the fuses in the next slot, meaning that I can't tap those fuses, so I'm either going to need to take power...

I'm going to add a hardwired dashcam and reversing camera to a 2017 MK7 Golf. Most of the instructions that I've seen say that I should use a piggyback\tap fuse holder to spur off of an existing fused location. I have two accessory fuse locations that are completely empty, neither have fuses...

Hello, I recently bought a A229 Pro - 3CH. I also bought a dashcam battery: Energywell P6 96WH. The battery is hardwired using Fuse taps to the car battery. The Dashcam is connected to the battery using USB cable (not using the HK4 hardwire kit, but USB output of the battery). I have two...

Hello, I'm using Viofo a119 V2 with HK2 kit. Over 2 years had no problems, but suddenly the hardwire power stopped worked. The camera turns on using the lighter port with no problems, but when plugged to the hardwire it doesn't turn on. Checked the fuse - it's ok. Checked the voltage in the...

Hi all, I have just installed my Vantrue N4 pro dash cam in my car and have got to the stage of hardwiring. The hard wire kit I got, is one provided by vantrue, is a 3 wire system and the camera requires 3 wires for parking mode etc. My car is an economy vehicle therefore it lacks any of the...

I'm getting myself prepared to do a hardwire kit install for the 70mai a810 dashcam in my 2016 Honda Pilot. In looking at the fuse box diagrams, I purchased a couple circuit fuse tap adapters as I wasn't sure if the slots without fuses were active or not. Tonight I did my best with a multimeter...

Hi all I am after some definitive what to connect where not totally ignorant on the subject of electronic work, so after some research, I came up with ALFATRONIX PT10-T Battery Voltage Discharge Protection 10 Amp to replace the Blackvue PMP as they seem unreliable so far! PMP has switched live...

Okay, I went cheap. Despite that, the RedTiger F7NP seems decent. Crisp footage, always records, locks files with ease and seems decent with low-light footage, too. I have it connected to my 2022 Skoda Superb Wagon. I got the F7NP on sale on Amazon, with the Redtiger Hardwire Kit for the F7N /...

Hi all, First time poster here so let me know if I have breached any rules or etiquettes. In November 2022, I purchased a Viofo A139 with the HK3 hardwire kit. I did all the wiring myself and everything was working fine until now. My camera now refuses to turn on. After some diagnosing, I...

I wonder if I could connect VCC and ACC (red and yellow) cord of 70mai HW kit to single Lighter fuse (using piggy back adapter) I don't want parking surveillance mode and also do not want to power my dashcam when ignition is off due very sporadic car usage (my lighter socket is powered only when...

So I just got my blackvue battery installed and while it is working fine, I keep getting a low voltage error. The incoming voltage fluctuates between 9-14 volts. The amps never drop below 9amps and it appears to be working besides the error popping up every thirty seconds. Has anyone ever had...

Hi All, I hardwired my Wolfbox T10 (I've confirmed that it's getting ACC power and BATT (always on) power) and it starts when I turn on ignition but the settings menu doesn't have anything about Parking Mode or Time Lapse recording (please see attached photo). When I turn off ignition, it powers...

Hi, I recently bought a car Honda Civic Type S 1.4 and also bought this dashcam that replaces the rearview mirror. After watching loads of videos I thought I would give it a crack. So firstly my hardwire kit has a constant fuse wire and an acc wire. Using a multimeter I was able to determine...

If you want to power your dash camera using a dash camera battery pack as its power source, you may need to purchase a dash camera battery pack output power cable or make one yourself. I show you how you can connect your dash camera's hardwiring cable to most of the popular dash camera battery...

I'm considering buying either a VIOFO A129 or a Blueskysea 4K dashcam. The VIOFO one has a HK3 hardwire kit (link) which doesn't seem to include fuse taps. For the Blueskysea 4K, I see that the wiring kit includes fuse taps and is cheaper (link). Can the B4K hardwire kit be used in place of...

Hi there, Complete beginner with dashcams and vehicle electronics here trying to hardwire a Viofo MT1 to a Caterham 7. The camera was recommended to me by the organisers of the championship that I will be racing in this year as a novice and I have since seen that they posted on this very...
