What to do if the dashcam can't work normally during parking mode?

Scene 1: Turn on the parking mode on the cam but there aren't any parking videos.


① Hardwire kits connection issue:


Please check if ACC cable is connected to ignition fuse tap and BAT to the constant power tap,

use a multimeter and test: ACC no power when ignition off and BAT constant power ignition on or off.

② Use the original car charger or short cable to enter parking mode:

Take the dashcam home, plug it into a household socket, and put it in a corner without any motion or sound.. 

After 5 minutes, the dashcam will enter the parking mode automatically.

You may check by the files recorded in the card or the signal on the screen to confirm,


③.Card issue:


Format the SD card on the cam or use a new card as suggested, Samaung or VIOFO card.
