Guys, are you sure you have installed the Thinkware Dash Cam correctly?
The dashcam must be permanently powered by the car battery.
When you turn off the car, the dashcam must still have power.
If your installer connected the dashcam's power cables incorrectly, i.e. not always powered on, the dashcam will make those screeching sounds.
To check if your dashcam is permanently powered, you can use a tester to check if the voltage is available even when the car is off.
If the power supply to the dashcam is not permanently connected then you must go back to your installer (electrician) and ask him to connect your Dashcam in a point where it is always powered.
In this way you can also successfully activate the parking mode and if you use the radar (purchasable as an accessory), the dashcam will only start recording if someone passes in front of the windshield and therefore you will save battery.
Okay?
