Please can somone enlighten me. Where have you guys been drawing switched power from??

 

Are you refering to things (electronic accessores) that you want to run when the car is switched on so you dont have to make separate switches for them?

 

If you want a true ignition, then you HAVE to go to the 10 gauge black/yellow wire on the fusebox or the ignition harness. A true ignition has power while the starter is cranking, as well as when the key is in the 2 position before and after the engine is running.

If you just need an accessory 12v, which is like ignition except there's no power while the starter is cranking, then you can go to far left option output on the under dash fusebox.

 

Ok can you guys give me some more details please. I want power when key is in position 2.

I have to power 10A to my hondata solenoid and 35A max to a Bosch ultra-compact waterpump via a relay.

I also need to power a PLX M300 from insde the car from the under-dash ignition power.

Where should I be splicing?


Cheers for your help guys.

 

BUMP!

 

go to vatozone. buy a small automotive light bulb... I used a turn signal. buy the socket for it...run two wires from the socket....Put your key in the number 2 position. Go underneat the dash and there is like 6 or 7 open spots on the fuse bux with male terminals on them. find your 12v ignition source there. Just make sure the source loses power when you turn the key off.
