Here are my current notes until I can make a good video. This should help. Thinkware Product: Connect Power to Unit, Black Wire to Ground, tap Red to Continuous Power Source Fuse (Always ON), and tap Yellow to Accessory Power Source Fuse (Only when Engine is ON), got the schematics. basically for the Accessory power, you are going to want to pop the map light holder out and tap into the yellow/green wire. Then splice into the power purchase adapter cable for accessory power. You can also pop of the side window trim as shown in the video and tap the same wire and run down near the fuse box. The park mode of the camera requires a ground, constant power and accessory power which would all be easier to do near the fuse box verses the map light. Now if you are using just the regular power with no park mode then just tap off the map light. I have already ran that cable down to the fuse box and that's where I will pick up constant power and ground. No easy way on this on the ford edge. I didn't want to rip into the dash...it's a pain. Also note, that this same circuit runs to the glove light though, I didn't research were you could get constant power near there. Hope this helps someone else. I guess when I get a chance, I will probably do a video. Really, on the ford edge, there didn't appear to be any accessory power at the fuse box. It's all done through a module...got to love electronics. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EzvQrOL20zc

2014 Ford Edge SEL I have tried using a volt meter on every fuse under the dash. Every fuse measured voltage. I need to find accessory power source so when the ignition is switched to off, it shuts off my Dash Cam. It appears the fusea are directly wired to some control box or relay or something I am not aware of. If someone knows a wire or an exact fuse, that would be highly appreciated. I am probably over looking the obvious. Thanks Rick
