DR500GW-HD
I am beginning to think I have a defective DR500GW-HD. Here's the problem. About once every 3 or 4 times I turn on my ignition my camera does not work properly. The record and GPS lights do not come on and I never hear the "recording message". All I see when the ignition is turned on is a green light where I would normally see the recording orange light. When this happens, no recording is done and the green light stays on the entire time the ignition is on. When I turn off the ignition, the green light stays on for awhile, then finally goes off. I thought I'd ask here first to see if anyone else has had this problem, and for any other help/suggestions before I return camera.

Thanks
 
Check the power plug, it can`t be loose.
Reformat SD card (hold on wifi button for 10 seconds).

Not sure it helps but worth to try.
 
Formatting will not help
Maybe it's the fault
Repair possibly
It is better to contact the seller for replacement
 
Thanks for the feedback, folks. I'm sure it's not the power plug and I've tried a new SD with no success. If it was the power plug, why would the green light stay on continuously while I'm driving. I think it's defective.
 
Doesn't it come with a 1 year warranty? Have Pittasoft fix or replace it.
 
I'll be returning it for a refund. Too bad, because it took nice videos when it worked.
