Hello fellow dashcamers,
I have recently bought a Viofo A119S from eBay. Everything worked perfectly well for ... a month and a week. Yesterday, I noticed that my dashcam failed to registered. I looked at the screen and this is what I saw (cf attached picture). The camera is now stuck, sometimes I have access to the menu, but the camera freezes the moment I try to do anything. Only way to reboot is to unplug/replug it. I had no accident or shock that could explain this sudden failure.
I have tried to plug the camera directly to the wire (not through the GPS module), tried a different cable, tried to reset it, tried to format the SD card and finally tried without any SD card, all of this with no result. I have contacted the seller on eBay who asked me to open the camera and try to "re-insert the display cable". I have done so (although the cable was already perfectly in place) with no result. I am now worried that I have broken the warranty by doing so ...
Do you have any idea on how to fix this ? I went for a Viofo because I heard good things about the quality and reliability of their dashcam, all I got now is 100€+ spent on a dashcam that lasted 1 month ...
Thank you very much for your help .
P.S : Please excuse my english as it isn't my mother tongue.
