They are infrared lights, you won't see them light up. They are on all the time the unit is powered.

They are not LEDs, they are infered bulbs that you should not see any more then a faint red glow from. Try using the camera at night if u can see in the dark they are functioning.

They are infrared leds they are hard to see if they are on . Turn camera on and look at it with it cuped in your hand or in a dark room you should see. Them faintly glowing if your wiring is correct

They only come on in the dark, and there not super bright. I bought two cams and this one makes night into day for me. I use it as a rear view mirror in my truck. It's hooked into a 7" screen

Start over again. Uninstall all drivers, software etc. Then restart PC. Once it has restarted attach received to another usb port. Not the one u have currently plugged it in. If the received still does not show an LED. U need to have it replaced.

I did have two issues with unit after install: the camera did not work, and display will shut off when it warmed up. But unit still was working. Is your entire unit not working?

Im sorry... No suggestions... That sadly is exactly what happened with me. I just threw it away after about a week of it not turning on showing any motion with the lights. Maybe flip the black switch on the bottom and it may work.

Mine does that the LED power meter, though it doesn't appear to light up at all. As the other person responded, is better to have the power meter icon in your system tray in lower right corner, easier to read, more informative, etc.

I agree with JR, check/swap your wiring/power supply. If it still doesn't work send it back. Quality control on this camera is not good, Ordered 2, one was bad right out of the box.

You've got to keep some light off of the screen or possibly tilt the screen and hold the camera higher. This is a normal probelm with most digital LCD or LED screens.

Mine does not either. However, it still may be secure. The only way to tel is to plug it in, power it up, and hit the record. You may want to wait after powering up for it to complete booting. LED lights should be stable. Click the record button, if the red LED does not blink, then you have a bad, sd card, or the it is not seating properly, or the camera board is bad. If it blinks, then you are good and off to the races !, just make sure you click the button before taking power off (disconnecting battery) or you will see a corrupt image file on the SD card

I could get the IR lights to come on but the camera didn't seem to work in the dark even with them on. Followed instructions from a u tube video. If you look at the watch thru your cell phone camera in the dark you will be able to see the IR lights if they are coming on.

Mine just arrived. I can't make the light work no matter which way I put the batteries in, nor is there a switch or button to push to turn it on if it did work. What's the story with the "5 LED" light?

Brilliant! I had the same issue, cleaned the LED screen, and now it is working. Thanks Lloyd Wilson!

We have the same problem. Turn on, count one, and lights turn on. An LED thing?

THere is a led which illuminates when pushed, but does not stay on. The camera chirps once for starting recording and twice for stop and makes a shutter sound when snapping a pic with the remote. I hope that helps. I have never had the remote not work very responsive.

The lighting on the LED numbers can be dimmed. It sounds like this could be happening. Have you tried hitting the "snooze" button? That will dim the numbers each time you press it until you can't see it anymore. Press it again and it should light up bright. Hopefully that helps!

the only thing I can think of is that one of the camera's don't work. Maybe you can return the unit for another one. good Luck.

The LED lights turn a dim red at night when the camera is on. They are difficult to see and not very bright. I have not reviewed the instructions to see if there is a day only option. I have mine setup to turn on when the vehicle starts and turn off when the vehicle turns off. The LED on most infra red cameras do the same thing, I install them for a living..
