Hi guys
Been a long standing member. Need some help with regards to installation on a Toyota Prado (2000).
This is the 3rd vehicle I've installed dashcam on using Power Magic Pro, no issues with prior two sedans.
Red ACC +
Hooked to Fuse 1 - Cigarette lighter, radio and player, clock, air conditioning system, airbag sensor assembly, remote control mirror switch, seat belt
15 AMP
Yellow BATT -
Hooked to Fuse 6 - Emergency flashers, horns
15 AMP
(Have used a multimeter to test this, receives power when ignition is off)
Ground
Hooked to bolt near fuse frame which touches the chasis
(Have used a multimeter to test this when touching RED ACC fuse and ground bolt)
PMP buttons
Set to default 12.5v and 6hr
Problem
- No light on PMP after installation (when PMP switch turned on and ignition not on)
- PMP light turns on once engine is ignited
- When PMP is switched to on and engine is ignited, PMP stays on after ignition is off when no camera is attached
- When PMP is switched on and engine is ignited + camera is attached, PMP turns off after a few seconds when ignition is turned off
I already know that there's an issue with the PMP, it's meant to switch on even if ignition is no (except first time after installing)
My gut feeling it's something to do with voltage not set properly (or PMP buttons). Perhaps because it's a heavy vehicle?
On the manual for heavy vehicles it says 22.8v or 23.2v. Not sure how to interpret these.
Can someone please advise?
Thanks
