hardwired a Viofo A119 mini 2 dash cam to my 2010 acura mdx (tech version) with a viofo hk4 hardwire kit to the fuse box on the driver's side, and set the battery protection option to 12.4V.
dash cam was added with a viofo hk4 hardwire kit to the fuse box on the driver's side, wired yellow to ACC Socket and red to passenger's power recline which is constant power. dash cam records fine but my car wouldn't start after a week of being parked in driveway. had to jumpstart my car, i suspect it's because i had parking mode on and it drained the car battery (parking mode setting between auto event detection and time lapse 3fps but still noticing battery drain).
now i turned parking mode off and unplug the dash cam when not using my car to prevent battery draining. any idea what could be the main culprit to it draining car battery? i think i had the hardwire done right by watching many different installation instruction on youtube. appreciate any feedbacks.
