Can a Broken Dash Cam Plug Be Replaced?
1 Answers
Yes, a broken dash cam plug can be replaced. Typically, dash cams operate at a universal voltage of 5V, while car voltage is 12V. Most dash cam plugs contain a voltage reducer that steps down the 12V car voltage to the 5V required by the dash cam. As long as you ensure the cigarette lighter USB adapter outputs 5V, the dash cam plug can be replaced with a USB one. The method is as follows: Cut off the original dash cam plug, revealing red and black wires. A USB plug has four wires: red, white, green, and black. Simply connect the red and black wires accordingly. A dash cam is a device that records video and audio information during vehicle operation. After installation, it can document the entire driving process, providing crucial evidence in case of traffic accidents.
