Frequently Asked Questions

Vantrue dash cam recording in parking mode but not in drive mode — why?

Check that the regular recording mode is configured to start automatically on power-up. In some Vantrue models, recording mode and parking mode have separate activation settings.

Vantrue N4 front camera recording but rear camera not — cause?

Check the rear camera cable connection at both the camera body and the rear module. A loose cable on the rear sensor is a common cause of the rear channel not recording on multi-channel Vantrue models.

Vantrue dash cam started recording then suddenly stopped mid-drive — what happened?

A sudden stop during recording usually means the SD card failed, the SD card became full of protected files, or the power supply cut out. Check all three causes after retrieving the last recorded clip.
