Fuseboard Tap For A Dashcam

[whowantstwoknow]

Have a 2006 galaxy mkIII, and would like to feed a fuse tap to the dash camera so that it only is turned on with the ignition. I found what I thought was a suitable fuse but it turns out it was the ABS fuse and has created faults on the ECU.

 

The booklet doesnt go into much detail on the fuseboard under the passengers footwell, so does anybody know which fuse would be more suitable for this purpose?

 

Thanks in advance

Cigarette lighter is best. It also comes on with ignition and goes off on a timer after you lock car - timer is several minutes but it does go off.

 

I used a fuse piggy back thing. Chunky wires feed this so should be fine. I fed the wire into the back of the glove box and put a cigarette lighter socket and twin USB adapter in there to run devices off.

 

Good luck... :)
