The moment I remove the Acc wire from the fuse slot it goes into parking surveillance mode.
Please help me with this and how to solve the issue.

Have you tried tapping into some other ACC fuse? If not, give it a try.
Otherwise you are right, the hardwire kit itself might be faulty.

Hi, I have bought a 70Mai A510 Dashcam for my Creta and was researching on DIY installation and came across your post. I am highly sceptical to route wire around the airbag module (irrespective of DIY or assisted installation) between A--> B and B-->C pillar and liked your approach a lot of taking it near the scuff plates. Few questions:

1. Have you found any issue till date due to routing wire this way?
2. Were you able to get the wire routed up in the C pillar for the boot headliner access easily?
3. Did you have to open the A pillar completely or was able to use the prying tool to get the wires down?

Thanks for your help

70Mai dashcam rear camera comes with 5.5 meters of wire, sufficient for midsized sedan/suv/crossovers.

1. No issues so far. Both camera recording working fine.
2. While pushing through headliner from C pilar to rear windshield, used a rigid wire; tied the end of dashcam wire to it and first pushed the rigid wire through headliner and then from the other side pulled the whole thing routing the dashcam wire too through the headliner. You can use the sprint that electrician uses to push/pull wire through concealed pipe. Be gentle while pushing/pulling the wire thing, without damaging the headliner in the process.
3. opened the weather seal (black rubber bidding) and routed through it. From headliner into A pilar - just used two prying tool, one to create a gap in A pilar and 2nd to gently push the wire through that gap. Did not open A pilar completely.
