+ wire near fuse box? (99' civic EX)
My pf mirror project is almost finished. The + wire on the relay linked to the + of the switch does not give my relay power. I linked my relay + wire directly to the + battery terminal and my mirrors fold in and out. I need help finding a good + source near the driver side under dash fuse box(preferably). This may be a little difficult because there are over 100 different wires. Thanks
From our discussion in this thread, I state:
and later I state:
This information is what you need to provide power to the relay. I posted the PFM wiring diagrams for an EK in that thread too, and though they are in Spanish, they are EXACTLY what you need.
PFM RELAY
Yours looks like this:
____|----|____
[1][2][3][4][5]
[1]GRN/YEL
[2]WHT/BLU
[3]BLU/YEL
[4]BLK
[5]GRN/RED
Since yours is a 6th Gen, and you do not have a blank spot on your under-dash fuse box to connect to (I've checked the diagrams), what you need to do is use a T-Taps connector and connect your WHT/BLU from the PFM relay to one of these two sources for power, both of which should be WHT/BLU wires, also: the Heater Control Panel or the Stereo Radio Tuner. These wires should pass through the under-dash fuse box somewhere ... they don't (shouldn't!) come OUT of the fuse box, they will be on a pass-through connector from the wiring harness that comes from behind the dash to the one that runs along the dashboard and behind the cluster

- GRN/YEL and GRN/RED you extend to BOTH mirrors (ie., split the wires and extend them BOTH to EACH mirror)
- BLU/YEL arrives from the PFM switch
- BLK is extended to ground
- WHT/BLU gets +12V power .... SEE MY NOTE BELOW!

Also, as I suspected, WHT/BLU for the folding relay is fused by No.47 - same one as for the Heater Control Panel and the Radio.
I tried using a fuse tap with the radio clock slot with no luck. I also tried the heater A/C relay and it didn't give any juice. What should I do next. It seems like my best bet will be to tap into a + wire. Anyone have a suggestion? This is the last step I need for this project. Thx
