Fitcamx 4K Dash Cam INSTALL and TEST on 2022 Toyota TACOMA 

No problem hope it helped. Been very happy with the camera so far. Hopefully we never really need to use it but nice peace of mind.

Thank you very much!

Thank you for the kind words. Hope it was helpful. I have been enjoying the Dash Cam so far.

Awesome! Congrats. I’ve been very happy with it and it’s easy to recommend. No issues yet. Good luck with it!

Your welcome. Thanks for using the code as that helps me out as well! Good luck with yours. I’m still happy with mine.

👍 good luck with yours. Been happy so far with mine.

Your welcome. Good luck with yours. So far I’ve had no issues.

Awesome! Good to hear. Been happy with it so far and impressed with the picture quality as well. Love the fact that you don’t notice it’s there.

Was the rear camera easy to install?

@@denniskeokot1232 It took a little time and routing of the cable as well a drilling a hole near the rear of the bed, then cable ties to hold the wire in place under the bed, but it wasn't difficult, just time consuming.

Does anyone know how the rear camera mounts and connects on the tacoma?

@@goldblueberries326 I do not know unfortunately.

All valid points. I still prefer this for its looks. But from the drivers seat I don’t know if it’s on or not. Rear view mirror blocks the light indicators. And as you mentioned no audible indicator. Room for future improvements. I honestly forget I have it sometimes. As far as it breaking, it’s still working for me. We will see long term.

Thank you. You don’t have to hit the power button to turn it on. It automatically starts recording when you start the vehicle. It does NOT record when the vehicle is off.

Thanks. Good to know. I think I saw in the manual about formatting every so often. I’ll have to check it out again.

Thank you. I believe it should. According to their website it shows it fitting a 2018 Tacoma. I know the one I have is powered by the ACC power supply. Maybe email/text them to confirm if you need anything else if your Tacoma doesn’t have ACC

Still good man. Have had no issues with the camera. This had no effect on the safety sense operation. This just piggy 🐷 backs off the power supply.

Sucks that happened to yours. Hopefully the process with getting a new harness was smooth. Thanks for the tip. It’s a good idea to check everything to make sure it works prior to installing it on the windshield. Let us know how you make out. Good luck!

@@automatereviews yeah, the company literally sent me a new y harness within a day of me emailing them. Got it today and everything fired right up, great dash cam, I cannot understand why anyone would want any other dashcam. Seems to me that people forget what a dashcam's main purpose is, determining fault. Too many people are thinking you need to be able to watch your dashcam like a video platform.

@@donniev8181 awesome. Good to hear. The OEM look is my favorite part along with the great video quality. Longevity remains to be seen but so far so good. Good luck with yours.

Hi Phuong. This particular model does not have a parking mode. Not sure if Fitcamx offers one with it. The power supply to the camera piggy backs off the power supply to the safety sense module, so you only have power to the camera when the car is on. It came with a 64g micro SD card. I’m sure it can accommodate a larger card. It loop records so when the card fills up, it deletes the older recordings. You can change the loop recording time intervals between 1, 3, and 5 minutes.

Power button turns off the camera when the car is powered on if you want it off. The camera button resets the camera back to factory settings. Once you set it up it’s really hands off. Car is on and it records. That’s it.

Thank you!

No there is no specific app on a Mac or pc, just the standard file viewer software on the computer. The micro SD card is inserted into a standard SD card adapter. Then that standard size SD card is inserted into the computer. It comes up as an MOV file on Mac, haven’t tried PC.

Does it interfere with Apply wireless Carplay?@@automatereviews

@@49ers49ers I don’t have wireless Apple car play but don’t see how it would interfere with it.

It does not. It’s only recording when the truck is on.

I believe this particular model does not have it. I’m not sure if they have any that do.

Hi Raymond. As far as downloading the app to your phone, maybe the storage is full on your phone and you don’t have enough space for it? Try restarting your your phone. Once you down load the app, the phone connects to the camera via wifi. Your car needs to be running in order to get power to the camera. The camera is almost like a wifi router, you connect to that in your settings first. Once connected, go back to your app to connect to the camera to use its features, see your videos etc. in the app you can download videos to your phone directly. There is a micro SD card in the slot on the right. To get that out, you have to push the card in and it should click out. Could be a little hard so might need something thin like a pen. That micro SD card is inserted to the “USB thing”. You can plug the usb into your computer to download files that way. I haven’t seen the cable thing for parking? What is that? Hope this helps. Let me know how you make out.

@@automatereviews I made and a few mistakes, my wifi was misbehaving but when I went down the road and tried again, it worked. Then I was able to download the app. And my car was not running previously. I figured out that the USB was a courtesy and I found the SD port. I was able to see the first recordings and it is working fine, thanks for your help. But I still think they could do a better job of preparing an installation guide, several points were not covered.

@@Raymond-mk8cb I’m glad you got it working. I agree, the instructions could have been a little better, especially for some folks who may not be tech savvy but RU-vid is a great place to figure stuff out!

I’ve had no issues with the camera itself. The app could be better as far as connecting to view your videos. Sometimes just takes too long. I prefer taking the micro as card and putting it in my Mac if I need to.

Awe man that sucks to hear that happened to you. That is one con of this particular camera but I guess something is better than nothing. I like what Tesla does with there vehicles with the Sentry mode. Hopefully more automakers adopt it.

I'm sorry to hear that happened to you. There are different features to this camera. If you use the rearview mirror then you won't get parking mode however when purchasing you can let the seller know you want that feature and you can purchase the hardwire kit which allows that.

I heard it doesn’t matter cause dash cans usually can’t even see plates and most parked hits you’ll never get clear sight of plate

Hey there. My particular model I believe is only 30FPS. I don’t see a way to change it to 60FPS in the settings with my model. Resolution is as high as it will go which is 3840x2160. Keep in mind my video edit and upload was only at 1080p so you are not going to see full resolution on your end. Also the type of screen you use has to have 4k capability when viewing it on your phone( direct WiFi connect to the camera) or PC with the SD card. I would say when I viewed it on my PC the resolution was very good and legible in most cases. But having a camera vs no camera is better than nothing. Even a cheap model. This model is on the higher side but paying for the OEM look. Having a camera is good in multiple scenarios, such as if you had a green light and someone runs their light and T-Bones you, etc.

I haven’t seen what they have for 2023 Accords. The particular one I have has a fixed lens which has a slight fish eye effect. There is no adjustability.

@@automatereviews thanks for your response. Fitcamx shows the camera on their website for the new Accord, but their instructions are for the previous model. I don’t why they would do that since the interior is totally new.

@@kennglee no problem. It could be a mistake or maybe Honda is using the same Honda Sensing module which I wouldn’t be surprised. The interior is new but something like that could be a carry over. Maybe try emailing Fitcamx?
