Hopefully someone might be able to help me here, fitted a second möbius camera to he rear of my wife's VW Tiguan the other day and the DAB signal to the car radio is now non-exsistant, it's connected using a dual 12v to 5v USB splitter with the möbius 3m cable to the camera and mounted just below where the antenna is on the roof. When unplugged the radio is fine. Would an interference filter clipped over the cable help or do I need to look for an alternative mounting position?
Cheers in advance.
 
The Mobius has been known to cause interference when place closed to GPS and other radio devices. You could try shielding the case with aluminium and see if that helps or, as you mentioned, relocate the camera. They do make a shielded case if you have it set in a good location.
 
So it's more likely the camera itself rather than the power lead?
 
Yes, it could be.
 
Cheers for that! I did search but nothing came up:(
 
I've ordered 10 ferrite supressors for £2.12 on eBay from China. I'll double them up in the cables, I've got a rear one to go in my car too, I'll try putting some tin foil on the underside of the mounting case too, you never know!
