    Great guide thank you! However I've got an issue with power getting to the dashcam, I've used a multi meter and identified a constant positive fuse, I've even checked the multi meter again with the piggy back fuse in however there doesn't seem to be power getting to my dash cam.
    Could it be the ground/negative cable?

    • @bigtedshome

      Yes, it might be a good idea to try a different grounding point. This is worth a read: No power going to can, install troubles : r/Dashcam - Reddit www.reddit.com/r/Dashcam/comments/ap5zd7/no_power_going_to_can_install_troubles/

    Thanks mate, do you need one of those metres or could you just check your fuse box manual to find out which one is Live

    • @bigtedshome
      @bigtedshome  10 місяців тому +1

      Yes, you could Google the fusebox layout for your car. Anything that stays on when the ignition is turned off e.g. headlights will have a constant fuse.

    Might be worth noting that some insurance companies may regard a hard wired dash cam as a vehicle modification and may need to be declared. If you use the cigarette/accessory socket to power the dash cam, then that isn't regarded as a modification.

      Thanks for flagging this up. Looking into it, it seems to be a bit of a grey area and company dependent: www.reddit.com/r/CarTalkUK/comments/yaql4k/hardwire_dash_cam_considered_as_modification/

      Because they put the standard hardwiring kit in you need the kit with the yellow wire to use parking mode

    My road angel kit has the black spade connector, but two power connectors, red but also a yellow? What's that one for?

    • @bigtedshome
      @bigtedshome  9 місяців тому

      It looks like the yellow cable is connected to a constant positive and the red to a switched positive. www.appliancesdirect.co.uk/p/hwk5v/road-angel-hwk5v-dash-cams-dash-cam
      It looks like the Halo Pro needs both (your hardwire kit can be used for several models) but I'm 99% sure that you don't need to connect the red cable for the Halo Go.

      @keeleymelia2750 Micro sd cards do wear out, especially when they are being continually overwritten like they are in a dashcam. Replacing the micro sd card is much cheaper than replacing the dashcam and will probably solve your problem. Good luck 🙂
