Thank you all. Ordered the parts I need to change the fuse ends and add taps. Awesome advice as always.

Hello everyone, I am installing one of the OEM type dashcam's recommended by Zalvern in this thread: http://lincolnmkzforum.com/topic/2811-hardwired-dashcam-in-a-2014-mkz/ Link to product: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1920-1080P-Special-WIFI-DVR-for-Lincoln-MKZ-MKX-MKC-Deluxe-Model-2015-Hidden-Installation-Control/32711348212.html?aff_platform=aaf&cpt=1500992958907&sk=VnYZvQVf&aff_trace_key=edbffb743d4641fa9dfe3549ec5f0f0d-1500992958907-05745-VnYZvQVf I have a loaded 2014 MKZ and was wondering if anyone knew if there are available spare fuse slots for both battery connection and ACC connections? Normally I would check them all with a multi-meter however the fuse box is not easy to get to any I am getting old. I could order a few piggyback fuse adapters and use known slots shared with other components, but I really don't like doing that. The manual does not clarify battery or ACC for the spare fuse slots. I need them to be the dual micro slots because that is what's on the end of the wiring bundle included with the cam. I would just ask Zalvern what he used, but he has a 2017 and pretty sure the fuse layout is different. Anyone know how to find this info without checking them by hand? Thanks

Thanks Laminar. That was a helpful thread. I have downloaded the 3.8 update from a link in that thread and it installed perfectly. Seems to be faster response of Sync all around, but is most noticeable on the touchscreen. I don't have an iPhone, so I can't use the new Siri stuff but overall 3.8 (Technically 3.08) seems to be much better than 3.6. I will use 3.8 for a few weeks and then perhaps update to 3.10. If anyone is interested, this is direct link to download the 3.8 update. Just run the EXE and extract it all to a blank fat32 formatted USB drive: http://givisivsustorageprod.blob.core.windows.net/swparts/Gen2v38build15128serviceNARev2.exe

Wondering how your talk with the service manager went about the seatback issue? Thanks

Please let everyone know how it goes especially if they recommend replacing another part. Thanks

I also have this issue on my 2014 MKZ. The dealer has ordered the seat back panel, but does that correct the problem or is there another part related to the under lying seat frame that is needed to be replaced also? Thanks
