Fitting dash cam to cigarette socket

Featured Replies

Hello

 

Is my 2019 citigo cigarette socket live always or just when ignition on , want to fit a dash cam

 

thanks Steve

My 2019 Fabia socket is permanently live ,which I use for my dashcam,so maybe the Citigo is the same.

Older Citigos are ignition live, I suspect the latest are as well.

My 2019's socket is switched.

Doesn't it drain the battery? 🤔

Only a tiny amount.

 

Socket only live on 2018/19 spec cars when ignition is on.I have both a front and a rear camera -5v each -running off the socket.

Adapter/transformer carries two usb fittings,just pushed into there,and nearly all cable hidden.I have posted pics on this  on another section here.Can't believe the lunacy you have to face on the roads .Some resent being on a camera -one guy cut up the inside of me in a bus lane the other day to get past.Must have been on route to a burglary.....
