The disassembly method for a dash cam: 1. First, use a blade or card-like item to pry open the front panel, then you can see the screw holes inside the dash cam; 2. Use a screwdriver to remove the screws, and the display panel can be taken off. There are clips around it that can be pried open with a screwdriver; 3. After removing the panel, you can see the circuit board. There are four screws around the circuit board display in relatively hidden positions. After removing these, the back cover can be taken off. A dash cam is an instrument that records images, sounds, and other related information during vehicle travel. After installing a dash cam, it can record the entire process of the car's journey in video and sound, providing evidence for traffic accidents. For those who enjoy self-driving tours, it can also be used to document the process of conquering difficult and dangerous roads.
I often tinker with car accessories myself, and removing a dash cam requires patience. First, make sure the car is completely turned off and disconnected from power, unplug the cigarette lighter or connecting cable to prevent short circuits. Then, check how the dash cam is mounted: if it's suction cup-based, gently twist and remove it; for adhesive mounts, use a heat gun or hairdryer to slightly soften the adhesive before slowly prying it off. Before opening the casing, find a clean place to keep the parts, use a Phillips screwdriver to unscrew the screws—if there are no screws, it might rely on clips, so carefully pry it open with a plastic pry tool. Inside, there may be batteries and various wires—avoid touching them randomly to prevent damage. It's advisable to read the manual or search for video references before starting, as different models have different structures. After cleaning dust or replacing parts, reassemble and test if it works properly. Safety first—if you're not confident, don't force it; it's better to seek professional help.
