Thanks for adding so many details. The only video that actually shows HOW to install the hardwire kit!
Thanks a lot for the details in the video, it answered all the questions I had for the parking mode. I will purchase the 2ch for now and maybe consider adding the interior camera afterwards.
You actually produced a really good content here, youtube algorithm didn't let me down. Thanks a lot.
Thanks for your comment. Glad you found the video helpful!
I brought the powercell because of his channel and used his link hope he got a commission
Thanks for the incredibly detailed and incredibly easy to understand video!
Thanks for your comment!
Excellent video. Thanks so much!!
In many cases, the airbag extends backwards above the door, so placing the cable as shown here may have unforeseen consequences if it inflates. =Make sure that the wires do not cross over the side airbag. The wires should follow the right side of the airbag and then cross the pillar below it. From there, continue downwards.
Well done 👍🏼
Great video and explanations!
Thank you for this great video, it was very clear to follow and you voice is coming very clear.
What a great video.
Thank you for this video! So much information in such a short time and combined with so much knowledge and ability. It really helped me. Greetings from Germany.
Thanks for your comment. Glad you found my video helpful. Cheers!
thank you
Very good video. Could you please show how to install using a specific auxiliary battery for dash cam? Thank you very much
ua-cam.com/video/e1lSGgr3KAY/v-deo.html
Thank you found out it was a bad tap wire …fit it work but my camera doesn’t go into parking mode immediately after car shuts off … I have the settings you recommended
great video, which dashcam battery pack do you recommend for this dashcam?
Hey, I love the video!
How were you able to discern that PWR SOCKET ACC 1 was ignition 12V and ELEC PARTS was constant 12V without using a multimeter? I don't have a muiltimeter on hand, but if that's the only way to find out I guess.
Also, how did you know which way to put in the fuse tap? You said that in that vehicle, the voltage comes in through the right side and out the left, but how do I know if that's different in my vehicle? Or is it the same in all vehicles?
Final question, is there a specific way to crimp the wires? Some people say wire crimpers are the safest way, but I saw you simply just squished the wires together with the pliers. Does that cause any issue?
Thanks!
Since I test a lot of dashcams on my channel, I have done many videos where I showed how to test the fuse with a multimeter to find ign 12v and constant 12v. I did not show those steps in this video, but yes you definitely need a multimeter to test the fuse circuit and find out which fuse you can tap into.
Hi. Thank you for the very informative video. Can I please ask how you plug the a139pro to the 8 power cell battery? When plugged to the battery do we need the parking mode cable? Does that mean we need use fuse tabs for the parking mode and the battery as well? I’m so confused. Any help would be great appreciated thank you 🙏🏻
If you want to connect this dashcam to the Powercell 8 battery pack, then make sure you order the correct USB-C output cable when you buy the Powercell 8. You will use the Powercell 8 output cable to connect to your dashcam. The Powercell 8 is connected to the fuse panel using fuse tap. The dashcam gets power from the battery pack and not the car battery. See my review/install video of the Powercell 8 ua-cam.com/video/e1lSGgr3KAY/v-deo.html
I'm a little confused. First you put the 10 amp fuse in the socket and then you did it with the 20 amp fuse. Why did you do this?
Interior cam also record while parking?
Good Info, question, do I have a choice to shut off the other 2 cameras if I want to if I purchased the 3 channel Dash Cam Bundle?
Once the cameras are plugged in, it will recognize the 3 cameras and begin recording. If you want to turn off the interior or rear camera, you need to disconnect the cable to it (power dashcam off first before disconnecting).
Recently I had A139Pro installed . Next found it will only able to perform at 2K front camera when the parking mode is enable. It came with the latest un published firmware.
Thanks for the video! Do the Interior Camera LEDs glow red when they are activated (like at night) or are they not visible? Thanks!
They are not visible, they are infrared so even when you have them set to on they are invisible to the naked eye
Such a great video! Would you mind explaining, the part where you install the fuse in a certain direction, why is that and what would happen if connected vice versa? Thanks!
The reason you need to find out which side of the fuse slot has the voltage coming in is because the current has to flow 'through' the fuse. If you install it incorrectly, the device will still get power and operate BUT it will not have fuse protection. So looking at the fuse, one side will connect to 12V source, and the other side will go out to the device. If you install it incorrectly, the 12V source will be connected directly to the device side.
You can watch another video I have showing the install, and you can skip to 5:05 in the video where I talk about the in and out of the fuse. ua-cam.com/video/Me0idM8MW4Y/v-deo.htmlsi=bBrnEPIJL9gRMA3B
Sincere thanks! It is a pretty straightforward explanation. Really appreciated the time you took to answer in such a detailed manner. Have a wonderful day and thank you once more!
Question: How will I know which Fuse Tap I need for the job?
Fix title. Love the video
Thank you! Fixed
Nissan Pathfinder 2017 uses low profile fuse type ?
Hi Thanks for your videos.
I m looking at getting this dash cam
I have the Viofo A129 pro is my hardwire kit compatible with the A139 pro or do I need to renew all wiring and cables
A129 hardwire kit is not compatible with the A139.
Does the interior camera have motion recording?
can be connected directly to the battery
Thanks for the video. I have fuses in my car insurance box from 5 amps to 40 amps. Does it matter which one I connect to using Fuse tape.
10A or 15A will work
love the camera and i have it hard wired . but im having issues with the app. the app doesnt even show a live view at all and seems to be real glitchy across the board when messing with the settings and files. i have an iphone12
Please disable the VIOFO APP from accessing cellular data. Turn on airplane mode if the issue persists.
im looking to buy the 2 channel one and would like to know how long it lasts with the car off. i know car batteries are different just want to know roughly if its worth getting the parking mode cable
How long the parking mode runs depend on how many event recording gets triggered, and the health of your car battery. With the voltage cutoff set to 12v, you might get 2-3 hours of parking mode. If you set the cutoff below 12v, you can get longer runtime, but you are draining the car battery more.
Do you know of a good way to mount the interior facing dashcam so it can be adjusted towards either the drivers or passenger side in the event of a police encounter?
The interior camera does not swivel left or right. If you want one with interior camera that swivels, then check out the VIOFO T130 that I reviewed ua-cam.com/video/Zv3XfKl0WSo/v-deo.html
I would think it's a matter of finding a suitable universal mobile phone holder which can swivel left/right. Perhaps a magnetic one, where you stick/glue the loose magnet (intended to be mounted on the phone) onto the original camera-mount's stickypad.
Speaking of mounts, I don't understand why Viofo didn't run all connections (power, auxiliary camera signals, and GPS) for the main/front camera through its mount. Separate cable connections are always good, but an additional quickly "unclicking" connection would be nice when you constantly remove and mount the camera.
Hi I have a question about the infrared interior camera. How does the camera works? Does have a light that stays always on when it records cause that’s what I don’t like about it.
IR LED is not visible to the human eye. So it's not a bright light that is on at night.
Did you have to remove the A pillar trim? I didn't see if you could tuck the wire or not on your install.
Here is a more recent video of another install I did, and it shows how to run the wires ua-cam.com/video/fEOtavje3pg/v-deo.html
Hi,witch fuse u use for front and rear dash cam,10A more or less...
You can use a 10A fuse for 2 channel dashcam.
Does this dash cam record while parked? In case of a hit and run? I am also looking for a connected can system for four sides. Can this work like this?
lol, guess you don't know what "parking mode" means....
Does the camera just record all the time or only record of there's an impact while in parking mode?
Records with ignition on
Great explanation. That part I"ve done, but now want to add a battery. Please help. Where does an accessory battery connect to the hardwired bundle.
Get a dashcam battery that has output connection for the 3 wires: gnd, batt, ign 12v wire. So instead of connection to the fuse box, you connect to the dashcam battery.
Thank you!
Is the camera removable from the sticky on the window? In other words, is the camera detachable if I want to take it with me?
You can detach it by sliding it to one side and it comes off the base.
Hi there! First your video and knowledge is awesome. So when I am choosing which fuse I want to connect the dashcam circuit, it’s a bit easier for me because I have spare ones. However, they come in all different voltage. I learned that factory voltage must be always bigger than Dashcam voltage. I see that you chose 12V and 10V - is that big enough? In other words, what is the voltage of VIOFO A139 Pro? I’d appreciate your help!
The numbers you are referring to is amperage (A) for current, and not voltage. The car operates on a 12V system, but the current draw is different for different circuits in the car. The dashcam will work with a 5A or 10A circuit. That's more than enough to power the dashcam. FYI, the dashcam requires less than 0.5A.
@@dial2fast Makes sense, amazing. Thank you so much for your fast reply!
Is there any special way to disconnect the camera cable from the rear cam or does it just pull out?
It just pulls out.
Ok so admittedly I am new to all of this and knew nothing before I ordered this dash cam and a blackvue battery pack (130x or something). I had it professionally installed and the dash cam works but only while driving? I bought the hardwire kit for it to be hardwired to the blackvue battery, and to my knowledge it is because if I switch the battery off the camera won’t turn on. However, the camera absolutely refuses to record in parking mode. I ordered a cable that is supposed to fix it but it doesn’t have the usb c on the one end and it’s just very different than the original hardwire kit I got for the a139pro. What should I do?
The original hardwire kit is still needed, and please make sure the battery pack comes with spliced output cable to connect to our hardwire kit.
Hello great video! I had one question, If Im tapping into a empty fuse slot for the hard wiring, what size fuse do I need? I need to insert two fuse into one tap.
You can use at 5A fuse to power the dashcam.
@@dial2fast thank you so much! two 5A fuse into one tap correct??
@@aykay711 The fuse rating should be able to handle the current draw of the circuit. A dashcam should draw less than 500mA, that's why the 5A fuse will work fine. As for the other fuse, you can also put in a 5A fuse, but you need to check to see what current draw other devices use on that circuit.
@@dial2fast thank you so much for the clarification!
I've got this same pro dashcam. My problem with the parking mode: Sometimes it records 2-3 hours or 6-7 Hours. But most of the time it turns completely off after some seconds...and I don't get it why...What could be the problem? Can you help me please.
Sounds like your battery is dropping below the threshold voltage and turning off the camera. I’d get a battery check which is free at most auto parts stores and see what you come up with there.
@@jasonhannsz Hello thank you for answering. UA-cam informed just yesterday about your answer...but no matter now cause it works actually fine now. 11-14 hours hours can my dashcam record now :)
@@zarbon18 как решили проблему?
DOES THE REAR CAMERA ACTUALLY DETECT MOTION AND START RECORDING LIKE THE FRONT/MAIN CAMERA?
Yes, it does.
Hi
Do you get an notification on your phone if the camera detects any kind of contact to the vehicle while in Parking Mode ?
No, this camera has no mobile connectivity, and all footage is stored locally on the SD card.
@@Spurdospaerde692 whoa, so if a thief breaks into and robs the stuff in your car in the middle of the night, and of course steals the camera, would you have any evidence?
To anyone who owns this 3ch setup, on average how long will this last in event detection parking mode (if set to 12v). Thank you in advance.
How do I determine what fuse size to use in my fuse taps? Thanks!
Never mind, I just saw a 5A fuse will work!
@@Shawn-im4pm Yes 5A will work fine since the dashcam will draw less than 2A.
Do you have a link for the polar filter?
Here is the filter amzn.to/3Lq5uTc
When in parking does the Rear camera record also?
Yes as shown in this review.
@@dial2fast How about the interior camera ? Does it record all 3 channels in any of the parking modes ? Thanks for all your videos and helpful comments
@nirajverma5088 With the example he showed, it seems so (Publix parking lot).
@@nirajverma5088lol of course
Can you use the parking mode without the hardwire kit?
No because the dashcam needs to have power after you turn off the engine.
Like the review, hate the camera parking mode service // Why sell an item with parking mode, but the cables needed to use those features needs to buy additional hardware, so scam from Viofo.
Have you ever had the hardwire kit or work ? Because I can’t get power in the dash cam with the hardwire kit and when I use the 12 volt port in the car the dash cam works … so I know the dash cam works …
Unless the tap is wrong but I tested for constant and ACC … in a 2022 IS350 which fuses would you chose ?? Thank you
It is better to use a multimeter to test a fuse that can supply constant power and connect the red cable to it. Then choose an accessory fuse that can detect ACC ignition and connect the yellow cable to it.
My dash record all time and this wrong i need only record while someone motion mode on my car can u help me?
привет друг! я настроил регистратор , порковочная запись по собитии. регистратор в режиме парковки работает пару минут и выключается. когда есть движение , событие, регистратор не включается. G сенсор не работает кажется
Извините за проблему. Какой режим парковки вы используете? Попробуйте устранить неполадки шаг за шагом: 1. Убедитесь, что кабельный комплект подключен правильно. Красный провод должен быть подключен к предохранителю, который стабильно обеспечивает питание 12В при выключении автомобиля, а желтый провод должен быть подключен к предохранителю зажигания. Черный провод должен быть соединен с землей. 2. Если соединение правильное, проверьте настройку переключателя отключения напряжения. Если вы выбрали 12,4 В, уменьшите его, чтобы камера работала дольше (пожалуйста, подтвердите, может ли ваш автомобильный аккумулятор обеспечить достаточную мощность во время парковки). Если вышеуказанное не помогло, откройте тикет здесь, чтобы получить дополнительную помощь: support.viofo.com/support/tickets/new
So sorry for the issue. What parking mode do you use? Please try to troubleshoot step by step:1.Please ensure the hardwire kit has been connected correctly. The red wire shall be connected to the fuse that consistently provides 12V power when you turn off the car, and the yellow wire shall be connected to the ignition fuse. The black wire shall be connected to the ground. 2. If the connection is right, please check the setting on the voltage cutoff selector. If you have chosen 12.4V, please lower it to make the camera work longer (please confirm if your car battery can provide enough power while parking). If the above cannot help, please open a ticket here to get further help: support.viofo.com/support/tickets/new
@@ViofoDashcamOfficial ок!
@@ViofoDashcamOfficial can be connected directly to the battery
I can’t understand why my dash cam keeps on going out every few seconds, and I’ll keep on getting a black screen on the application. I have the same thing you have mentioned in the video, 3 channel a139 voiofo
It runs very hot and it keeps on popping my fuses too and it keeps on turning off if I plug it directly into the car USB luxury car I don’t know why he doesn’t want to keep the dash cam on and the keeps on turning off on the Wi-Fi off and on and I don’t have any picture at all on the app, but A blank a black screen and that goes for all 3 channels. I hooked it up as directly as you shown in the video but I think there’s something else does this Dashcam have internal battery inside of it what I mean by that is internal battery when the dash cam is getting used and powered it up? Inside a battery that’s built inside the dash cam like an internal battery you know how cell phones have internal battery and you can unplug it and you can still use it the same idea applys to a dash cam
My cam always turn off after 2-3 minutes in parking mode. Someone knows why?
Please set the voltage selector to 11.8V to confirm if it can work longer. It seems that there is no enough power supply from your car battery.
@@VIOFO-CS thats an good point i'll try later. i'll let you now. thanks mate
@@plo0p1 You are welcome, it is our pleasure!
Please. Do you know if it is possible to locate the car on the map and remotely access the cameras?
No it doesn't do that.

I can not get parking mode to activate
Does your camera turn off when your car is parked even if you have turned on the parking mode in the setting? If yes, please check if your hardwire kit has been installed correctly. The yellow cable shall be connected to an accessory fuse that can detect the car ignition. The red cable shall be connected to a fuse that can supply constant power even if your car ignition is off.
@@ViofoDashcamOfficial It is ALWAYS on? Always when i park and turn off tge vehicle nothing changes. It never says parking mode activated. As well there are NO vudeos in app under parking tab. Parkibg mode will not activate. Yellow wire runs to radio fuse which after 1 click of ignition turns on. Red wire is straight to the battery?
@@speakadatruth7907 If the camera is always on even if your car is parked and has not entered parking mode, the yellow cable must have been connected to the fuse that can supply constant power. It is better to use a multimeter to test and choose a fuse that will only supply power when your car ignition is on and then connect the yellow cable to it.
I have the red cable going directly to the battery. I have the yellow cable going to a fuse but only turns on once the key is turned in the ignition. It's in the same fuse is my radio in my radio isn't always on
Maybe you guys labeled the wires incorrectly
