What Are the Reasons Why a Dash Cam Fails to Record?

[IvanAnn]

Here are the specific reasons why a dash cam may fail to record;1. Motion detection is enabled: If motion detection is turned on, the dash cam will not record when the scene is static. Try turning off this feature and using the dash cam again.2. Issues with the memory card: The memory card may have insufficient speed or encounter errors while storing video files, or it may have other inherent problems. You can choose to format the memory card or replace it with a high-speed card. It is also recommended to restore the dash cam to its initial settings.3. Loop recording is not enabled: Loop recording divides videos into segments of a certain duration and stores them on the memory card. Once the memory card is full, the oldest video segments are automatically deleted. If this feature is turned off, videos will not be deleted automatically and will continue to be stored in the dash cam until the storage space is full, which can also cause the dash cam to stop recording. Enable loop recording and set the duration to 3 or 5 minutes.4. G-sensor is enabled or the sensitivity is too high: If the G-sensor is enabled, the dash cam will automatically detect a collision and make the video segment from that time period undeletable. If the sensitivity is set too high, even a sudden brake can trigger this function, leading to many undeletable videos and filling up the dash cam's storage space, which can cause the dash cam to stop recording. You can choose to turn off the G-sensor or lower its sensitivity.
