    Let’s talk DashCams

    I have the VAVA dual dash cams in both my truck and wife’s MDX. Bought it after being rear ended in my wife’s old vehicle and getting sandwiched, followed by getting the front end collision pinned on me (queue personal injury lawsuit…ugh). I wanted one that had both front and rear facing that...

    2018 Geiser and Deaver Questions

    Thanks for this explanation. I knew as much for the progressive Geisers, but it makes sense regarding a softer ride with the Deavers. I ended up going with the Deaver + 3, Icon Bump Stop Spacer and Geiser front. Should be getting them installed in the coming weeks. appreciate the help and...

    2018 Geiser and Deaver Questions

    Any chance maybe the 17/18 springs are progressive without having the live valves? Mine specifically is an 18, and there were numerous posts that stated they were progressive springs, but perhaps they were wrong - or I misread.

    2018 Geiser and Deaver Questions

    I’m looking for some advice and feedback on swapping my front springs and rear leafs. I imagine a lot of these questions are pretty basic, so I apologize as I am not as well versed as the majority on this forum. 1: after looking through various posts, I think I have decided on Geiser springs...

    GEN 2 How do I lock doors without setting off alarm?

    @NV Paul put it right. If you don’t want to leave the truck running you can change the security to perimeter only. If you look at the overhead lining near the lights you will see a couple indentions that almost look like pocket lights, but they are actually interior movement sensors. There...

    Dumb Question of the Day: What Happens If I Disconnect The Battery?

    For mine, I only needed hot and ground, so only one fuse. Unfortunately my dashcam had an in-line GPS and terminates in a male USB. I didn’t want to cut the line in case I upgraded later so I bought a female USB to Female USB connector then bought a generic hardwire kit. Allowed me to keep...

    Dumb Question of the Day: What Happens If I Disconnect The Battery?

    Literally just went through this. I have a dual channel dash cam and was able to quickly and easily tuck the wires from the back all the way to the A pillar up front. After that I ran it along the headliner to the dash cam. The power cable went down the A pillar after popping it off (two...

    Dashcam Hardwire Question

    The cover wasn’t an issue for me. The space down there is tight, but I was able to easily find a location to wrap up the excess wiring and had no issues with the trim panel. My issue was getting the tap to seat properly in the existing fuse slot. As @zwexpress mentioned earlier I may need...

    Dashcam Hardwire Question

    You are likely right. Didn’t think it through well on the first post. I’m also not sure how long the power delay is, but that would be the only way - unless you find something else online that indicates otherwise - to determine with certainty which fuses are ignition only. Fuse 36 seems to be...

    Dashcam Hardwire Question

    I think there are quite a few - just based on description. Maybe try 16 (Tailgate Release), 21 (Temp and Humidity Sensor), 23 (Window controller) or 27 (moon/vista roof). I tried to test quite a few but all were coming back hot and I was rushing so opted not to wait out the delay after...

    Dashcam Hardwire Question

    Thanks - I had originally tried 4 (trailer brake control), but after testing it appears that it is switched based on, what I assume, is a trailer hook up. I will try shaving off some plastic around the edges and seeing about fitting in in 36 as that appears to be what I want. I don’t mind it...

    Dashcam Hardwire Question

    I bought a dashcam and hardwired it to my 2018 today, but as I was putting in the add-a-fuse kit I couldn’t get it to seat properly with the layout of the interior fuse box. I ended up pulling fuse 5 and fuse 28 to allow it to fit and using slot 5 with the add-a-fuse. Both are 20A slots and...

    Gen 2 Gas Mileage

    I have a stock 2018 SCREW and typically get around 16.5-17.5 mpg. I run 93 typically and have the tires around 34-36 cold. Just made a long drive through the center of TX and I expect fuel economy to fall off hard any time above 65. I could probably pinch pennies and get around 19-20 by...

    Cabin beeps changed

    Thanks for the reply. I don’t recall turning the audio system on but perhaps that was the cause. When I left work all seemed back to normal - so perhaps what you described happened unknowingly. The sound coming from the IPC makes sense and it did sound like an 80s video game. Appreciate...

    Cabin beeps changed

    This morning when I got in my truck (2018 SCREW) I noticed the sounds changed from the normal slow beeps and dings to what sounded close to the alarm when you put the parking brake on when the truck is in gear. My parking brake was on, but was not in gear. At first I thought I was crazy and it...
