Accessory Affected by Car Engine Cranking
Hi all,
I have a Chinese GPS that turns on automatically when it senses power from a USB plug. My problem is when starting the car. The sudden voltage drop triggers the GPS to go to sleep mode. In other words, when I start the car, the GPS goes on and within 1 second, it would count down to sleep mode.
My Garmin doesn't countdown to power off as I think it is able to sense that the power is back on.
Our Benz C300 seems to control the voltage drop better so that the Chinese GPS doesn't get affected and count down to sleep mode. Any suggestions on what I can do with my Lexus IS250?
Thanks!
