Dead SG9665GC V3

[Feitelijk]

It just doesn't do anything anymore, tried three different power sources (including wallsocket usb adaptor) and 3 different cables.
No lights at all.
Yesterdays drive isn't on the card either although I have seen the screen on for a bit when I started.
Was running beta33

Is there anything I can try?

 

[jokiin]

not sure what's up with that, having no lights at all is odd

take it you've pushed the reset switch already?

 

[Feitelijk]

Yes, with power connected and without, no joy.

 

[jokiin]

same result with or without memory card installed?

 

[Feitelijk]

Jup.
Doesn't smell funny either.

I was wrong here, I don't see any lights go on.

I had it on the computer to take the movies (which worked fine), took it to the car and installed it.
You can just see it on the right on this rear/side cam

as you still have your V2 to use maybe send the V3 to @niko as he is the closest to you and we can work it out

it wasn't an order, it was a sample I sent but if you can have a look at it would be appreciated

you weren't connecting the camera directly to the PC were you?

 

[Feitelijk]

Yes I was.
Still worked on the beta 33 for the last two weeks I've been running it. (and has worked on the V2 for 1,5 years )

ok, may be part of the problem, we include the card reader for good reason, USB ports are below spec for our purpose

I had a powershortages and reboots while in mass storage a few times in the past when connecting too many devices on one USB module but not recently.

Do you suspect the USB fried the cam?

 

[Deacon]

Not to derail, and I'm sure you've probably told people before, but what kind of car is that? The only possible reference I can come up with for anything modern is a left-hand-drive Morgan, but that's probably wrong.

 

[Hombré]

Gotta love a Morgan and yeah, check power connections for proper and constant contact

under voltage situations can be just as bad as over voltage, it could have damaged something, we don't ever recommend connecting to PC USB outlets for this reason

Ok, I won't do that anymore.

It's a Westfield kitcar.

Ah, very nice! Looks like it was inspired by the Lotus 7?

 

[wozzzzza]

full racing harness, nice. I had one of them in my VN V8 commodore when I was a P plater.
