Land Cruiser 150 + Hard-wiring for Dashcam

Bought the same hard wire kit for the Land Cruiser as I did my MK5 golf and while it woks perfectly in the latter, I'm having no luck with the Cruiser.

Kit: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07KZGM9LS/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I was first just trying to get the ACC connected but the camera wasn't getting any power from the fuses I tried.
- ACC
- P/OUTLET
- Washer

Obviously had the ignition turned on when testing the power up.
Any help or pointers would be greatly appreciated.

The ACC is just the switch, did you have the other wires connected properly?

I only had the acc wire connected.

Hadn't hooked up the constant power or ground yet.
Should I connect everything up first?
If so what's best for constant power?
Thanks.

Take to someone who knows what they’re doing, a professional auto-electrician & let them install it safely. If you still have the Golf ask them to check whatever you did when you installed the camera to it.
