Hi. There are various threads addressing how to either turn on/turn off your cigarette lighter/12V socket while the engine is off, however they are not specific to the A3 8P. So my socket is currently always-on, even when the engine is turned off. It never turns off. It's not been an issue for me. However, I've got a dashcam now and want to use that socket, but leaving the dashcam powered on at all times doesn't help (it has a parking mode monitor that comes on and records for 10-15s and turns off, which doesn't require it to the powered during parking.)
On the other threads, I read that moving the fuse to a different position switches the functionality of the socket - from on all-the-time, to on only when car is on. However, I'm not sure if it is relevant to the A3 8P. I want to switch my socket to turn off when the car is turned off.
Thanks for reading. Any help/suggestions are most welcome. Thanks in advance
