Mr12Volt P2000 - Carplay/Android Auto w/M.O.S.T *New Model Update*

BalanBro · 05-17-2024, 08:43 AM

For the folks with their cameras working properly, is it normal to have a long boot-up delay for getting a picture? When I go in to start the car, I wait for the Mr12Volt logo to clear and show the units interface. At this point when I put the car in reverse, the reverse mode turns on with the guidance lines, but there is no picture.

It seems like I have to wait over a minute before the camera actually provides a picture. The camera then works perfectly fine after this initial start-up period until I shut everything back down.

No, that isn't normal.

I would try first making sure the unit is up to date ie microSD.

If that doesn't solve it, check the ground connection on the camera.

Then check all the other connections. The included wires are literally the thinnest possible wires lol. Any connection you made better be spot on.

Personally, mine is definitely not instant. But the picture and teh lines show up at the same time, after a few seconds delay.

and it doesn't work perfect. 80% of the time it works perfect, other times it takes a while, or is staticy and bad picture, and once in a while just black screen. I think My ground connection is weak TBH

Finally got it all wired up. Wiring confirmed. No need for trigger point for auto cars. Also greenyi cam 720p works good. Thanks for everyone’s help. Seems to be working fine. Also key was removing my phone from Bluetooth as it would sometimes lose audio and go to the Bluetooth. Once phones removed from the bmw setup. The mr12volt works fine.
