Hi all,

I am in the process of hardwiring my dash cam in but unsure what permanent live to use - what are you all using?

Thanks.

I see I've got loads of spares with fuses in, could I use one of them?

I can't remember which one I have used but it was one of the spare ones. It's easy to check if you get yourself a multimeter. Open your car, check voltage with ignition off- if 0 turn ignition on- if above 12 volts that's the one😉

I've used the Hazzard Lights for permanent live and USB for switched live.

Can you write which fuse is responsible for the hazard lights in the fuse box in the J12 model? I am looking for constant voltage to connect a dash cam.

Just did an install of RedTiger dash cam. For the switched supply I used the "POWER SOCKET" fuse. I got the permanent supply from the fuse marked "ELEC B" above (although it was marked differently on my diagram.
