    5 Stars. Great.

    I have Thinkware FA200 2 channel dash cameras on my 2016 Nissan Rogue & 2017 Ford Escape Titanium. Unfortunetly, a lot of newer vehicles have 12v outlets with constant power. Its a better choice to have the dash camera hardwired to the fusebox. Professional installation is reccomended. Hardwiring also allows parking mode, but I have it disabled, as I only want the camera to record when the engine is on. Another benefit is the same hardwire cable can be used when upgrading to another Thinkware camera.

    Simple Product, Does Its Job. Quality Harness

    This worked great on our Q800 Pro installation. Had no problems with it. Wires are decent quality, though I am not a fan of the barrel style fuse holders as they add bulk to the harness. Regardless, I was able to fairly easily route the harness from the rear view mirror of our 2015 BMW X5 to the necessary fuses to tap. Simple product that does its job. Better if you can get it on sale like we did.

    Installation easy but not specific on wiring

    The installation was easy even with very generalized instructions. The instructions don’t say where to attach each wire. At first I didn’t see any labeling on the red and yellow wires, but on the fuse holder for the red wire it says constant 12v. So I attached the red wire to a constant power source and the yellow to an ignition on power source. The park mode on the dash cam wouldn’t work with this hook up. Then I reinspected my wiring and saw a small black band on the red and yellow wires with a microscopic font saying the red was for ignition and the yellow for constant power. After switching the wires, the dash cam worked perfectly

    Does what it’s supposed to.

    The thinkware cable does what it’s supposed to and that’s to hide the wiring and hardwire power so you don’t have to plug it into a socket. This is also required for parking mode to work as the cable has a constant, switched and ground connection. The wire is plenty long enough. I am a professional 12v electronics installer and have installed many of these cables. The wiring is plenty long enough and the constant and switched are both fused at the end of the cable. Not much else to say about this product.

Questions & Answers

  • The accessory cable is not long enough. Can I extend the lenght of the 3 wires? Also which side of the fuse should I connect the red & yellow wires?

    Hi Ernesto, We do not recommend modification to our products, as they have not been tested for compatibility and reliability with our products. If you wish to do so, please do so with discretion and with the help of a trusted expert because damage to your dash cam or vehicle from improper installation is not covered by our warranty. Professional installation of the hardwiring cable is highly recommended. While yellow usually refers to the B+ and red to the ACC, the colors of the cables are not reliable indicators. Please inspect the cables to identify the cable. The B+ needs to be connected to a fuse that remains powered on when the engine is off while the ACC needs to be connected to a fuse that will turn off when the car is off. Please also be reminded that you need to enable Parking Mode in the settings to activate Parking Mode. Thinkware Customer Support
