Kevin Gilmour Posted April 8, 2021 Posted April 8, 2021 Hi I have a 2019 Forester eBoxer and I am going to instal a dash cam system (front and separate rear camera) which requires a permanent feed (even when the car is locked) and a switched feed (that only becomes live when the engine is on) Can anyone tell me the best location to make these connections please ? Thanks, Kevin.
jimboy Posted May 1, 2021 Posted May 1, 2021 Try this info. https://dashcameras.net/dash-cam-subaru-eyesight/ The fuse box is under the steering wheel. Lots of info on YouTube or Google I had this https://www.thinkware.com/Products/Dashcam/F800PRO installed by a mobile fitter, supplied and fitted for the cost of the camera on Amazon!! Only took him about 20mins Front camera fitted behind the rear view mirror, EyeSight works fine. Jim 1
PeteB Posted May 3, 2021 Posted May 3, 2021 I ran a fused line direct from the Battery into the cabin (my live also powers the GFB electronic boost controller, wideband and boost gauge) The switched live I got from the fuse box with a fused jumper https://www.halfords.com/technology/car-audio/stereo-fittings/autoleads-blade-add-a-fuse-576436.html Found a switched live using a multi meter. On my SF5 it was fuse 9 I believe. My 10 inch display also automatically switches to rear view full screen when reversing, I did this by splicing into the reverse bulb signal wire. 1
MackL98 Posted May 14, 2021 Posted May 14, 2021 Mine has an Amazon supplied plug into the OBD socket to power the camera. Simple, neat and tidy.. 👍
