Hi S! The adapter pulls power from the mirror area of the vehicle but the actual function from where power is pulled from depends on the vehicle. The vehicle shown on the video for example uses power from the ADAS system which drives lane detection (my mirror itself is not powered). You're installer can confirm if your vehicle has power going to the mirror area of your vehicle. I also placed the link to the adapter for Honda in the video description, Cheers!

If you unplug the land departure sensor from the original cámara you would have to calibrate the cámara!
@AlexAutoFunКүн бұрын
Hi C! While mine did not require re-calibration (I'm often disconnecting things in this area for different installs and maintenance), I do think this is a critical component that requires a professional installer to determine the proper procedure when plugging and replugging the same sensor (I follow my service manual, mine again does not require it). Additionally, there is the potential something could go wrong during the installation and/or later during the life of the product. Finally, there is also the issue of an aftermarket device and its effect on the vehicle's warranty. And here is my alternative method for those who want to avoid pulling power from the mirror area kzbin.info/www/bejne/j3bOnaBvi5urj6c Cheers!

@AlexAutoFunКүн бұрын
Hi M! Yes while the scanner supports IMMO access being able to add a key will depend on how many keys you have, if your car requires a new pin code, if you are adding a new key fob or a used one etc. In some cases a dedicated IMMO tool will also be needed if you are trying to re-use a previously assigned key fob where you need to make it "virgin" again using the dedicated IMMO tool, or if you are trying to clone a key outside of the vehicle (and other locksmith level functions). Thinkcar does accepts VIN numbers if you want them to check if it will be able to perform the function you need. Cheers!

Looks like a nice camera. The night time shot showed a car in the distance and the headlights looked extremely bright. Night time test with approaching oncoming traffic would help tell us if it just completely washes out.
@AlexAutoFun2 күн бұрын
Hi R! Ah the camera has automatic exposure control (most backup cameras have this now) so it decreases exposure when there is brighter objects to reduce overexposure (washout). You can kind of see that if you look at the night sky, notice how it changes from light to dark when there are brighter sources in the image. Now that being said, if there are car headlights directly behind you, aimed straight at the camera, yeah definitely the image will be affected (what I describe as someone shinning a light directly at yours eyes lol) as basically it exceeds the capability of the image sensor to compensate with exposure control. This is something we see commonly in dash cams since those are used while driving around where bright headlights directly behind the vehicle are common (such as in stop lights). This is actually a very interesting topic since it comes up in dash cams often and I have a video in the works covering this in more detail, stay tuned, Cheers!

Hi J! Good point, probably would make sense to set the dash cam to limit the amount of park monitoring to help that case also (some dash cams allow for specific recording time duration). The other thing I do to reduce power consumption and extend park monitoring is: use low bit recording, use motion detection only, use time lapse, decrease the resolution, turn off any unneeded channels, enable screen time out, just really depends on the dash cam that I'm using, some can be configured more or less.
