Hi all
Wondering if anyone has come across an issue with a dashcam and hardwired batterypack, this is in a Ford Focus ST.
I'm having major issues and 2 x Blackvue B124 batterypacks swapped out (although no fault found with them)
I have a case open with the vendor, but what I'm experiencing is the dashcam doesn't get power. and the batterypack stops showing up on bluetooth for me to connect to it. (verified with Android and Apple phone)
I have checked the car battery and alternator and everything looks ok (battery does drop to 9.6v on crank) but other than that all values are perfectly normal. Voltage going to the batterypack from the fuse board (hardwired) is as expected as well.
I have a suspicion that the cabling between the batterypack and dashcam is fault and therefore the batterypack turns itself off when there is no draw from the camera and Ive asked this of the vendor. However, just wondering if anyone else has come across this.
