Hi I just bought 552gw nextbase dash cam and hardwire kit : And after connecting red wire to 10a fuse that only works when car is on and yellow wire to 10a live fuse my dashcam keep working all the time and wont switch off. Any idea why ?

hi Guys, New to this forum, wanted your expert opinion for the dashcam. requirements. 1. Dual Channel (front and rear) and should have audio recording. 2. It should be as discrete as possible. If it has a screen,, it should be small enough to not be a distraction to the driver. 3. Parking...

Hi Guys! I'm glad i found this community. I received my new car recently so i wanted to install a new dash camera with parking monitor feature. I chose VanTop H610 and bought Vivilink (Vantop and Vivilink are basically the same company) Hardwiring Kit. I have visited a local automotive...

Honest admission at the outset, I am not someone who has done a lot of DIY - in many ways, hardwiring my dashcam is my first project simply because I want to be more handy/practical/DIYish and have to start somewhere. Sorry if this is long! I've been through loads of videos and guides online and...

Hi I have 2013 Ford Focus and a akeeyo aky v360st mirror camera. I want to hardwire it. There are two blue fuses on the wiring harness but they’re too big for my car. I have empty fuse slots. I think they’re micro fuses. How do I convert the original ones to fit my car? Thanks

Hi folks, Looking for some help with a 522GW and the hardwire kit. Installed it myself in a Ford Tourneo Custom van, and am having a problem with the dashcam rebooting when the engine is turned over or when the van restarts from the stop/start feature. Its not that the dashcam is shutting...

Hello everyone, thanks in advance for the help. I recently bought a new 2022 Kia k5 gt line w/premium package, and was trying to hardwire the SG9663DCPRO+ cam today. (I bought the correct fuse tap kit, micro 2 fuse taps and got everything set up.) However, the L-shaped fuse tap doesn't fit...

Hi all, Need some advice on hardwiring the dashcam. The local garage I'm taking my car to has suggested that they will run the wire from the rear dashcam to the front through the gap between the headliner and the car roof. Is there any problem with this approach? Also, they have suggested that...

I have a ThiEYE Car View 2. Powering it through the cig lighter works fine but now that I have hardwired it it resets itself everytime I turn the car off. (VW Golf Mk3) Removing the Mini-Usb cable while its on also doesnt cause this issue. Thanks Simon

Hi All, I have recently bought the Blackvue DR900X-2CH front and rear dashcam, and fancy fitting this myself. As I have zero electrical experience (I did managed to hardwire my wife's Fiesta ST with a NextBase 622GW front and back), so I would say I'm OK. However, my car is a bit more premium...

A couple of weeks ago I hardwired the A139 into my BMW and thought I would just do a bit of a write up as it may help others with hardwiring their cameras especially given the issues that are sometimes encountered as a result of the battery management systems on modern vehicles. For the...

So, not an owner of a Viofo cam myself, have been going through nightmares trying to install one with my father. First - this is not a 129 issue, this is a HK3 hard wire kit issue. Posting here as the related camera is an A129 Pro Duo First install resulted in a camera that functioned for...

Hi everyone, I wanted to hard wire my dash cam using a power bank. I have a Poweradd Pilot X7 power bank which allows for charging passthrough, meaning it can power devices whilst being charged itself. It uses Lithium Polymer batteries inside and has a capacity of 20,000mAh. I have attached a...

Hi there I have a U1000 (2ch) and the iVolt battery. I've noticed that even in energy saving parking mode with the radar, the battery doesn't seem to power the dashcam for as long as I expected. The Thinkware Dashcam Store suggests up to 24 days of recording before powering down but when I've...

Hello, brand new to this and I’m a little confused on hardwiring a cam. Looking at the BlackVue DR900 and I’d like to wire the camera up to run when the vehicle is on. Can I just purchase the fuse tap and that’s it or do I need to purchase something like the Power Magic Pro? Apologies if this...

Hey, I'm installing this dashcam for my dad and several unfortunate circumstances led me to be working for well over 15 hours and yeah - it's still not working. My current problem involves the hardwire kit. The cam works and turns on, but only if the ACC and the Battery both get a current at...

I have purchased hardwire kit which comes with fuse tap and 10 Amp fuse . Is it too high and should I use only 5 Amp/7 Amp? Please advise.

Hi All, I have a Hyundai i30 and an Aukey DR02D setup hardwired into the car taking a tap from the front power socket in the fuse box. When the car stops and stops the engine, the dash cam continues to record as you would expect. However, the restarting of the engine causes the camera to turn...

Hi, I'm hardwiring a Viofo A129 to a Lexus hybrid but the current my voltmeter is showing in the fuse box is 14v opposed to 12v. Will this cause harm to the camera and will the 12.4v that the battery could drain to cause any start up problems with the hybrid engine? Thanks for any help.
