Hi All...

just purchased a Toyota Celica (2003 model) and fitted a 'snooper' speed camera to the 12v supply (from cigarette lighter).. problem is.. works fine until i switch the headlights on then the power goes off.... BUT i can use the cigarette adapter and it works fine.!!!

Anyone offer a solution please!!!

You say you used from the cigarette lighter , but then you say used the cigarette adapter also, Isnt that the same thing , did you hard wire it behind the lighter ? dont use the green or GREEN/ black wire which is illumination ,behind the lighter . i bet you tagged that instead, if you want to hard wire witout adapters , use the ORANGE / BLACK in the ign harness is ign
