Accident would probably trigger event and be saved in different locatio. Are you sure camera wasn't recording?
Only startup. 5 seconds, 10 seconds and off. FW A119V3 ver 2.0 Build 20200711I'm not sure if A119 has the shutdown delay setting or not without checking...
I think you need to look at two separate issues.Ok guys I got nowhere trying to resolve this and now an accident happened, and guess what it wasnt recording! Looking at recordings, the main time it doesnt record is at the start of SOME journeys. It just never starts, but occasionally starts mid journey. (not associated with a bump in the road etc). Some 45 min trips fail to record at all, then an hour later 3 trips record fine.
I have changed the memory card, checked all wires (hard wired in). I cant find another fuse to use that isnt a safety critical one. It cant be the start/stop that I originally thought an issue because that isnt used on start up .(you put the fob into its slot and push in to start the car.) Yes it is still triggered when stop/start switches off at traffic lights, but then often doesnt restart the camera when the ignition restarts. I have tried various delays in recording start time, with no difference.
You write that there is a cabling problem. What do you say in my case. Everything was recorded, except for one that I wanted to manually secure while driving. I have an empty RO folder.I agree with the posts above that this is 99% a wiring issue.
It's not always easy but you need to find an ignition controlled power source that is not affected by the cranking of the starter motor. Any ignition source that is will put the dashcam into shutdown mode and if it's still performing the shutdown when power is restored it will continue to shutdown.
The next stop/start will then likely power it up until the next one giving the impression it's only partially working.
The only real DIY answer is a multimeter and go along the fuse metal dots one at a time. Unless your fusebox, like mine, has a separate dedicated accessory pin that is unaffected by stop/start. All Hondas have them for example.
I tend to not have any g-sensor settings activated.
I just let mine record sequentially and if I need to find anything I know where it is. Not moved or hidden away in another folder.
When using HK3 it is mandatory to be connected to a permanent power supply and separately to a switched power supply. Even if the parking mode is not used.
The phenomenon that happens to you I met in the situation where both red and yellow threads were tied together.
You mean HK2?I am only using a 2 wire hardwire connection
Check also the GND.When using HK3 it is mandatory to be connected to a permanent power supply and separately to a switched power supply. Even if the parking mode is not used.
