I have radio interference when the dash cam is plugged inUpdated 3 months ago

If you're experiencing radio interference, try the following steps to diagnose and reduce the issue:

1. Unplug the rear camera – See if the interference goes away when the rear camera is disconnected. If it does, the rear camera wiring may be affecting your vehicle's antenna.
2. Check the wiring route – Ensure that the dash cam cables are not running near your vehicle’s antenna or its wiring. If they are, try rerouting them to a different path.
3. Reposition the rear camera – Moving it to another spot on the rear windshield may help reduce interference.
4. Use ferrite cores – Attaching ferrite beads (clip-on ferrite noise suppressors) to the power cable and rear camera cable can help filter out electromagnetic interference.
5. Try a different power source – If using a 12V cigarette lighter plug, test with a hardwire kit instead, as some power adapters can introduce interference.
6. Ensure secure connections – Loose wiring or poor grounding can contribute to interference. Double-check that all connections are firmly in place.

If the issue persists, testing the dash cam in another vehicle can help determine if the interference is specific to your setup.
