Hi, i am needing some help, I hard wired my dashcam in to fuse 47, in my 23plate superb.

But what i am finding it that when the rear wiper is on about 5 mins later it is blowing the 2amp fuse..

I read that on the piggyback that the original fuse goes at the bottom and the 2 amp one on the top.

And there is a correct way to have the piggyback as and to make sure the the piggyback is the right way up. Positive and negative.

Just wondering if anyone has had the issue of a fuse keep going, as it did not do this in my last superb. .

Would be great if someone could post a photo of the orientation of how you have it.

Thanks.

This is how mine is fitted to 48. They aren’t positive negative. Both sides of the tap are positive. I suspect you have the dashcam and piggyback fuses in the wrong slots

Hi, thats great, thanks, yeah i think i had them the wrong way, had the 2 amp closest to the fuse box

why 48 and not 47, just asking as mine is empty,

Thanks

No reason. Just were it would fit. The whole of that row of large fuses is switched so any can be used.

so i could just put the piggyback in to 48 with just the 2 Amp?

Yup And put normal fuse back where it belongs.

great, thanks for your help

Hey, Im also trying to wire my dashcam and Im bit confused, how to do it without reaching other side of fuse box and trying to plug in a lower part of 47 fuse or its a propper way to do this?

You need a fuse tap. Most dashcams come with them. They piggyback existing fuse positions

I have a dashcam, its powered via usb. I have ordered 12v to 5v adapter and piggyback fuse adapter. Thanx for help!
