FAQs

Can I install this kit myself?

Yes, it is a three-step installation process, though it does require knowledge of how to use a multimeter and identify fuses in your vehicle's fuse box.

Does this kit work with non-Botslab dashcams?

This kit is specifically designed for the Botslab G980H series using a Type-C connector; compatibility with other brands is not guaranteed.

Will this kill my car battery?

No, the kit includes built-in under-voltage protection specifically designed to monitor your battery and shut down the dashcam before the battery is depleted.

What tools are needed for installation?

Typically, you will need a fuse tap adapter, a multimeter or test light to locate fuse positions, and a socket set for the grounding bolt.

What is the cable length?

The cable is 9 feet (approximately 2.7 meters) long, which is sufficient for most standard sedan and SUV installations.

Troubleshooting

Parking mode not activating

Verify that the red wire is connected to a fuse that stays live after the ignition is turned off.

Dashcam shuts off intermittently

Check the grounding point for a secure, metal-to-metal connection and ensure all fuse taps are seated properly.

Vehicle battery drains quickly

Confirm that the under-voltage protection is active and the wire is not connected to a critical high-draw fuse.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Enables constant, uninterrupted power for parking modes
Protects car battery with built-in under-voltage monitoring

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation follows a three-step process: grounding the wire to the vehicle chassis, connecting the constant power line to an always-on fuse, and connecting the accessory line to an ignition-switched fuse.

Compatibility:

G980H
G980H Pro
3-Channel Models

Care Instructions:

Regularly inspect the cable for any signs of fraying or pinch points near the door seals.
Ensure the grounding point is free of paint and rust for the best electrical contact.
If storing the vehicle for an extended period, ensure the camera is powered down to preserve the longevity of your car battery.
