Door open warning

Hi

Recently installed a front and rear dash cam with on of these, https://dongar.tech/products/porsche-keyway1

All works as it should but the rear passenger is showing as open and it's not. Could I have disturbed anything when I ran the cable that way?

Thanks in antcipation

Re: Door open warning

At least on early i3's, the rear doors sometimes need to be shut with some force to avoid the door open warning. The door sensor must be pretty sensitive, so you might have disturbed something during your dash cam installation. Try shutting the door with more force to see whether that eliminates the warning.

Thanks but no joy :(
