My A118c suddenly won't record anything. When powered on the screen stays on and the record light flashes but the time seems stuck. If I remove power it appears to just slowly run down the remaining power and turns off instead of actually shutting down

I had the same problem before when swapping cards so I assume I have a bad SD card? Last time I had to format the microSD to "fix" it.

I see this guy had the exact same problem https://dashcamtalk.com/forum/threads/a118-stuck-on-not-recording-cant-turn-off.9138/

I am running: A118C.20160316
 
How does it act when powering on and off without a card inserted?
 
It works properly without the card - time works and it shuts down properly
 
Would indicate a card issue then.

What brand cards have you been using?
 
When was the last time you formatted it in the camera?

Are you able to enter the menu to format it?
