The connections come apart from the video receiver cable for the actual camera, this is gonna need someone else to service anyway. Must've been weak already, as I opened it a second time today and it broke apart.
-
Also the burnt video balun seems stuck and I can't remove it.

@tomcctv will a 12V 10A CCTV power supply be suitable for the cameras? They've got that power supply unit and it comes with the socket. My wire strippers have been horrible and wouldn't strip the wire properly so could I just use this one instead? 12v 10A CCTV Power Supply Box Battery Backup UPS 9 Channel With AC Plug for Surveillance Camera Access Control LED https://www.amazon.co.uk/Supply-Battery-Channel-Surveillance-Control/dp/B09SPRR47W/

cool thanks ill order the parts in.

I'm assuming you mean here do this for each wire to accomodate for each of the cameras? so one channel has 1 orange and 1 orange/white in + and 1 blue and blue/white in - another channel has the same for the other camera, 1 orange and 1 orange/white in + and 1 blue and blue/white in -?
-
Thank you. I'll get to it.
-
Thank you very much. Can you let me know how to actually hook up the power supply unit?
-
please can you tell me everything i need to get - i may be able to get Amazon prime on most items and be able to service the CCTV tomorrow. what do I need to power the supply with? im assuming some power cable that I strip into live neutral and ground and wire up as theres no socket. how do I connect the cameras up to the supply? am i using those wires seen in the 2 way terminal block above? all i need is - power cable - wire cutter - wire stripper -power supply - replacement video baluns and that's it? let me know how to connect the cameras up to the supply.
-
is this what i need to power the supply or do i need something else? the supply doesnt come with a socket or lead.
-
How do I connect this up then? Because I've got the exposed CCTV wire from the existing power supply. i guess buy this https://www.amazon.co.uk/C2G-Metre-Power-IEC320C13-Kettle-Black/dp/B002CZQ3G6/ cut it in the middle and wire it up? I'll need to get a wire stripper and cutter from local place to wire it up.
-
I'd rather replace the supply tbh, would it burn baluns again? Was also making a buzzing sound every time it was plugged in/out, no idea if that's safe. Nah I don't have a multi meter. I'll rewire everything as you said. I can test it beforehand without buying a new balun as I can just swap the back cam DVR one with the front can burnt one.
-
This is the DVR connection. I think it's the same situation with the two wires.
-
Is it not? I thought that was normal. DVR boots up, checked it first before realizing the cameras were dead. Power supply connection. Looks like they've stripped the supply cables with the camera cables.
-
on second thoughts mate how would I do this? looks like theyve got some sort of wiring connector, theyve stripped the power supply wires and stuck them in that connector with the CCTV wires on the DVR side. u know how this works?
-
ah no problem, ill service them tomorrow if i get the chance. can you recommend a wire stripper or is it not needed? can i jus use my fingers cuz its that small. im in brum, ive got 2 cameras.
