I have a DDPai mini 3 dash cam that requires hardwiring. I have a Ground wire (connect to body), a yellow wire (VCC) and a red wire (ACC). To which fuses can I safely connect to within the passenger fusebox? One is for constant power and the other is switched with the ignition. I've looked on Google, read the instructions and watched some videos, but still confused. I will tap P/OUTLET No.1 (15A) as the ACC (Turn on when car engine on) but not sure why fuse for VCC (permanent live). Thanks.
Do you have a multimeter to check for voltages ? I have hardwire all my dashcams to my overhead dome light and mirror/sensor. What you do is for the VCC (constant 12v) wire that to the Red wire of the overhead dome light connector and for the ACC (key on 12v) check which wire will give 12v when turned on with multimeter from connector from the rear view mirror (homelink/garage door open) or sensor that is by the rear view mirror such as lane departure. One quick question is dose you dashcam hardwire kit come with a box to shut off the cam when the car battery drops to certain voltage ? It should otherwise you will drain your battery dead / see picture below there is switch/box to set voltage to shutoff.
Old thread - interested in updates if folks reading have done this. Wolfcam in question w/preference to keep it hardwired at the ceiling vs. tapping fuse box.
