Have a dash cam in my auto. When I plug in my dash cam the stock radio get a ton of interference making the radio not useable. Have to listen to CD's. I use the cigarette lighter for power. I have tried wiring right to the fuse box but get the same results. Engine does not change the noise.

There’s no reason a dash cam should interfere with your AM, FM, or Satellite radio.
I wouldn’t waste time tiring to find a way to suppress the noise it is making. Its defective and you should exchange it for another one or return it and get different brand or model.
If you do want to pursue suppressing the noise it, listing the make and model of the camera you have would be a good idea along with what band (AM/FM/Satellite) you are hearing the interference on. -

What happens if you use a different charger for the dash cam?

I had an issue with the power cord that came with my KDLinks X1. I put a split bead right at the cigarette adapter and my noise went away. But it was BAD. it would kill AM and FM signal.

Alot of the powersupplies are terrible noise makers. The cheap 12v usb hubs at gas stations are the worst
