Dash Cam/Lighter Power

[The Demon]

I have a Garmin mini two dash cam and I pulled out the memory card to reformat it but I didn’t turn off the dash cam which I forgot to do. Now it doesn’t work anymore when I plug it into the cigarette lighter. I’m thinking that I blew a fuse and I found some diagrams but I can’t find out which fuse number it is. There is one called auxiliary body module but I don’t think that’s it. Any help would be appreciated. When I bring it into the house and plug it into my Mophie it works just fine.

Im sure you already checked the cig lighter outlet but just in case you forgot plug something else in and make sure it is still working, just a reminder in case you forgot. as you didn't state you did

Actually I hadn’t done that because the dash cam worked when I brought it into the house and fired it up on a different power source. The power source in the CIG outlet came with my Garmin. So I did go out there and I plugged in my car vac and a couple other things and they all work just fine. But for some reason the camera will not even though it works on other power sources so this is really weird to me. Obviously it’s not the fuse because other things are working. Maybe I’ll try a different memory card because that one might be shot which makes it not work.

cig works with other items, camera works with other power source, check "The power source in the CIG outlet came with my Garmin" usually when taking memory card out it messes up the card but sometime it can be reformatted.

Does the cigarette lighter adapter that came with the Garmin have a built in fuse? I've seen some adapter that do have a built in fuse, so it could be that.

I will check that but the adapter is working with all other devices. I’m down to the thought that it’s the memory card was corrupted. I’ve bought a new one and I’m gonna see if that works.
