I know nothing about dash cams. I borrowed someones car and inadvertently unplugged the dash cam when wanting to charge my phone. I immediately plugged it back it when I realized it. It appeared to be recording as the red dot flashing, however the date / clock were not advancing. I made the mistake of starting to mess around with it to try and fix this. At one point is flashed a message to insert an SD card although the SD card was never removed. The screen indicates the SD card symbol. The date and clock are now advancing and it appears to be recording but now there is a flashing icon on the bottom right hand corner and I don't know what it means. I'm attaching a crappy picture. I do know that when I unplugged the first time it kept running on its own power but now it needs to be plugged in. I don't know much about the cam except it was cheap... Its described as HD 1080p car DVR 1.5 inch screen. I also know its running at 720p if this is helpful. And thats about the extent of my knowledge. If anyone could offer some insight as to what this icon is and what I need to do that would be great. I would like to have it running properly before I return it. Thank you in advance!!
