I do occasionally if I’m using parking mode. I have the magic box or whatever BlackVue calls it, I didn’t have issues in my last BMW so I need to find the proper voltage cut off to not have that message.

There seem to be a number of things that stay on no matter what, and I think when it drops to a certain voltage the it maybe finally shuts off and pops up that message.

I haven’t seen it for awhile and I think I have mine set to shut off at 12.7 maybe. I would have to look at the dip switches to verify.

At the end of the day I believe it’s the BMW saying hey you have something drawing power we aren’t aware of.

But all completely guesses on my part
