2019 Karoq hardwire dash cam

Featured Replies

I’m planning on hard wiring a dash cam and I just need some help as to which fuses to use. Just need to know where would be a good place to connect the red and yellow wires and I’m guessing the earth wire can go on the bolt in the second picture? I’ve got an early 2019 Karoq right hand drive. This is the fuse box from behind the glove box. I’m wondering if I can use any of the empty fuses and if so which ones can I use for the red and yellow wires?  Thank you.

If you have a Nextbase Dashcam the Nextbase OBD port power cable is an easy fit and doesn’t need an earth connection.  Costs the same as the Nextbase fuse box hardwire kit.

There's a fairly thorough thread already about it on the Guides sub forum, visible below.

 

Give it a quick read, and please note the position of the curtain airbags if you decide to route your cable like that.

 

Most people use fuse 47 for ACC(Rear wiper - ignition switched), fuse 40 for BAT(Rear 12V socket - always live). 

The GND is a bolt, visible in the thread's first post, just below the main fuse box.

 

Alternatively, you can use the suggested OBD port power cable as suggested above for an easier install.
