What is the default password for BMW dash cam?
3 Answers
The product manual of BMW dash cam will indicate the initial WiFi password, which may be 12345678, 1234567890, 888888, 8888888, etc. Most initial passwords are among these combinations. After entering the app, you can modify the WiFi password, but this step requires careful operation. Forgot to change the password: If you forget the WiFi password after changing it, you can restore the factory settings by long pressing the photo button on the side of the dash cam for about 10 seconds, and then reset the password. Unable to connect with the password: If the BMW dash cam WiFi cannot be connected despite the correct password, first check whether there is any issue with the phone settings or if the wrong app was downloaded. The app name will be specified in the product manual.
As a BMW owner, I've experienced similar issues. The default password for dash cams is usually factory settings like "000000" or "123456", but it depends on the model and year. I recommend first checking the user manual that came with the vehicle—it contains precise instructions, as different BMW models may vary. If you don't have the manual, try contacting a BMW dealership or customer service hotline; they can provide technical support. For security, don't rely on simple passwords; once set, save it in your phone notes to avoid forgetting and needing a reset. Resetting the dash cam may restore factory settings but could erase all recorded data. When parking, always ensure the device is locked to prevent unauthorized access. The dash cam is a crucial safety device, and maintaining a secure password protects your privacy and driving records.
I know BMW dashcams may not have a unified default password, as they are usually customized by the supplier. I've seen some using "admin" or "password," but in practice, it's best to check the original manual or online support page. If unsure, try connecting to the computer via USB to access the management interface, or call BMW's after-sales service directly for advice. Security is crucial—setting a complex password reduces hacking risks; my experience is to use a combination of birthdays and numbers for easy memorization. Don't rush to reset it to avoid losing critical footage, such as accident evidence. Before daily driving, check the dashcam's status to ensure normal recording.
