Hi, trying to locate the ignition fuse on our e46 330ci convertible so we can hardwire a dashcam. It isn't listed on the fuse guide with the car and can't find it online. We want it to come on and off when the car is started/stopped. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks Amanda.
Do you have a diagram of the fuse panel? The fuse panel is horizontally divided into 2 sections: power at all times and power when the ignition switch is in any position except off. I believe the top row of fuses has power onlybehrn the ignition switch is not in the off position. You could use one of the unused fuse slots. You’ll have to buy the parts that go in the fuse panel, though.
Some dashcams are motion sensitive, so if somebody messes with the car while parked it will start recording. In that case you want power all the time.
