jeapskibum Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 I have my Radar System and there is a central box that needs to be hardwired. I tried snaking it through the grommet to battery and I failed. I Broke off the fuse section inside there. yeah I have a ground and 4 radar wires going through the same grommet hole. So now I want to tap into an Acessory power line where the passenger keeps their feet. I am clueless with car electrical and I did a Search. So I only want this on when key is turned. Where should I tap in?? Thanks!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim1969 Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 will the wires reach to the lighter outlet from behind? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeapskibum Posted August 8, 2005 Author Share Posted August 8, 2005 I only want the radar to power up when the car is turned on or at least accessories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NutBucket Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 Cig lighter works for that; this isn't an American car where they're always on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim1969 Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 exactly. I have my Escort 8500 X50 hardwired from behind the cigarette outlet. It's a switched 12v source. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
