Stop/start dashcam hardwire help

Post by JohnMcD »

Hello from the Isle of Man (quieter now the TT is over). I have hardwired my Philips dashcam to the fusebox through a video off YouTube, however, as my car is a stop/start, every time I stop at lights etc the power to the camera goes off when the engine cuts out. Has anyone found a solution to this, as I can’t seem to find a suitable fuse to piggyback onto that stays live when the engine cuts out, I don’t want to wire it to a permanent live so it’s on 24/7. Many thanks and 🤞.
