Setup and Installation

Proper installation is crucial for the hardwire kit's functionality. If you are unsure about any steps, it is recommended to seek professional assistance.

Before You Begin

Ensure your vehicle's engine is off and the ignition key is removed.
Locate your vehicle's fuse box. Refer to your vehicle's owner's manual for its location (typically under the dashboard, in the engine bay, or in the trunk).
Identify the correct fuse type for your vehicle. The kit includes Micro Mini, Mini, Small, and Medium fuse taps.

Wiring Connections

Connect the B+ (Yellow) Wire: This wire provides constant power. Connect it to a fuse in your vehicle's fuse box that has continuous power (e.g., hazard lights, dome light, or radio memory). Use the appropriate fuse tap.
Connect the ACC (Red) Wire: This wire provides switched power. Connect it to a fuse that only receives power when the ignition is on (e.g., car radio, cigarette lighter). Use the appropriate fuse tap.
Connect the GND (Black) Wire: This is the ground wire. Securely attach the U-shaped terminal to a metal bolt or screw on the vehicle's chassis that is part of the vehicle's ground system. Ensure a good electrical connection.

Connecting to Dash Cam

Once the hardwire kit is connected to the vehicle's power, route the Type-C connector end to your dash camera. Plug the Type-C connector into the corresponding port on your E-YEEGER V100, V100Pro, or S50 dash cam.

Use the included pry tool to neatly tuck the cables along the vehicle's trim and headliner for a clean installation.

Operating Instructions

24-Hour Parking Monitoring

With the hardwire kit correctly installed, your dash camera will receive continuous power from the vehicle's battery, even when the engine is off. This enables the dash cam's parking monitoring features, allowing it to record events while the vehicle is parked.

Adjustable Low Voltage Protection

The hardwire kit features an adjustable low voltage cut-off to protect your vehicle's battery from excessive discharge. When the vehicle's battery voltage drops to a preset level (either 11.6V for 12V systems or 23.2V for 24V systems), the hardwire kit will automatically cut off power to the dash cam after 60 seconds. This ensures enough power remains to start your vehicle.

The low voltage value can be adjusted to suit different vehicle types and battery conditions. Refer to the control unit for specific adjustment methods, typically involving a switch or button to cycle through voltage settings.

Maintenance

Cable Inspection: Periodically check all cables and connections for any signs of wear, damage, or loose connections.
Fuse Check: If the dash cam is not receiving power, inspect the fuses in the fuse taps and the vehicle's fuse box. Replace any blown fuses with ones of the correct amperage.
Cleanliness: Keep the hardwire kit's control unit free from dust and moisture.

Troubleshooting

Problem	Possible Cause	Solution
Dash cam does not power on.	Loose connection. Blown fuse. Incorrect wiring (B+, ACC, GND). Vehicle battery voltage too low (low voltage protection activated).	Check all connections to ensure they are secure. Inspect fuses in the fuse taps and vehicle's fuse box. Replace if necessary. Verify B+, ACC, and GND wires are connected to the correct power sources and ground point. Start the vehicle to recharge the battery. The dash cam should power on once voltage is sufficient.
Parking monitor not working.	B+ (constant power) wire not connected correctly. Low voltage protection activated. Dash cam parking mode settings not enabled.	Ensure the B+ wire is connected to a constant power source. Check vehicle battery voltage. Refer to your dash cam's manual to enable parking mode.
Dash cam turns off immediately after engine is off.	B+ (constant power) wire not connected, or connected to a switched power source.	Verify the B+ wire is connected to a fuse that provides constant power, even when the ignition is off.
