lost dashcam power from OBDII port

[Dakster]

I had blackvue 650 connected to OBDII port for over year, worked great. I just noticed today that dashcam isn't getting any power. I am guessing fuse blew.

Is the OBDII fuse location on the fuse box on right side panel as shown in this video? I believe this car has multiple fuse boxes, so want to make sure I open up the correct one.

Interior Fuse Box Location: 2012-2017 Tesla S 2017 Tesla S 90D Electric

Just to be safe I am planning on avoiding using OBDII port and plug into the 12v cigarette adapter, may be get battery pack.

UPDATE: It was a loose connection beween OBDII cigarette lighter adapter and blackvlue. All working now.

Where did you get the ODBII to 12v cigarette adapter?

I haven't installed my Blackvue 900 (in transit) but have these parts for it; I intend to plug the BV directly into the socket (when that is attached to the OBD). You could wire them directly together, but there is supposed to be a fuse in the BV's plug (at least the 650's had one).

see the link boaterva posted.. I bought those two, cut the other end of OBDII cable and connected it to the female cigarette adapter. Blackvlue provided adapter then plus into this.

Why aren't people using the power connector in the rearview mirror?

I’m not because it’s an X for me.

For an S, no reason not to get that cable with the ‘disk drive’ (I believe) plug and carry on. Far as I know that is still usable.

Oh the X's don't have the extra connector?
