Usb And Lighter Sockets Always On

[Weeked]

Hi,
I own a 2018 T6 Trendline for about 2 months now and I noticed the usb and cigarette sockets are not turning off after I remove the keys/lock the van.

Is that normal? I'm using a dash cam and is quite annoying to have to unplug/plug it every time I drive or to always make sure nothing is in if I don't drive the car for weeks.

Thanks for help.

Hi @Weeked! Yes, this is normal.

Thanks.

Well I should look at the positive side....permanent CCTV

Normal...

If you need to change it you need a hardwired kit fed from the ignition feed on the center fusebox.

No good if it drains your battery if away on holiday for 2+ weeks and airbag light comes on when battery recharged ... mate of mines did and cost trip to steelers to reset airbag.

I Have the T6 Highline 2018 and the USB turns off with the key removed, it does come on when you open the doors for a few seconds, but shuts down again when the door is closed.
So I have my camera plugged into that.
The cigarette lighters are on all the time.
Hope this helps
