Can the driving recorder lens be replaced? Methods for handling camera anomalies in driving recorders

Can the driving recorder lens be replaced?

The lens of a driving recorder cannot be replaced under normal circumstances. Under normal circumstances, the lens is integrated with the driving recorder as a whole, and if replaced, there may be technical difficulties. In addition, replacing the lens may cause a decrease in the performance of the driving recorder or prevent it from working properly. Of course, there are also some high-end dash cam models designed with interchangeable lenses, but such products are relatively rare. When purchasing a dash cam, if you have a need to replace the lens, it is best to consult the seller about whether the product supports lens replacement.

What should I do if the camera of the driving recorder is abnormal?

There are usually various manifestations of camera abnormalities in the driving recorder, such as inability to turn on, blurry image, and inability to record. Let's take a look at common solutions:

(1) Unable to power on

For situations where the power cannot be turned on, first check if the power connection is normal, which may be due to issues with the power cord, DC power interface, or device power module. Secondly, check if there are any issues with the memory card or formatting errors, and try replacing it with a new memory card. If there are no issues with the above, it may be due to a hardware malfunction of the equipment, and it is necessary to contact after-sales service for handling.

(2) Blurred image

If there is a blurry image, it may be caused by dirt or scratches on the surface of the lens. It is recommended to try using dust removal gas or lens cleaner and lens paper for cleaning first. If the image remains blurry after cleaning, it may be due to internal damage to the lens or focusing issues, in which case it may need to be repaired or replaced.

(3) Unable to record

If the dash cam displays that it cannot record, it may be due to insufficient memory card space or memory card errors. It is necessary to regularly delete some unnecessary videos or replace the memory card with a new one. If it is not a memory card issue, it may be a hardware malfunction of the device, and after-sales service needs to be contacted for assistance.

(4) Abnormal screen color

The abnormal color of the screen may be caused by the lens camera module being continuously illuminated by strong light. You can try turning off the device for a period of time and then restarting it; If there is still a problem after shutting down and restarting, it may be due to hardware damage to the camera, and relevant after-sales service needs to be sought for resolution.

Kind reminder: If your device is still under warranty, it is recommended to directly contact the manufacturer or after-sales service for processing. If it is already out of warranty, you can seek professional repair services for inspection and repair.
