Where to hook a fuse box to in a F3????

[bscrive]

I am wondering what switched wire I could use to hook a fuse box to? Anyone know a good power wire to use that is not being used by something else?? I would need the colour combo and where it is. Or, does anyone have the wiring schematic that they could send me? I want to hook up a Shark stereo and a couple of other things and I want to use a fuse box instead of tapping into random wires.


Thanks,

Brian

I don't know if there is the same wire I used. I have an RS see my post SHARK AUDIO
on the aux fuse block and Shark 6800 jtpollock

I put my Shark amplifier in the frunk and used the fused (10 amp) accessory connection located behind the frunk liner. You will have to drill/cutout a small opening in the frunk liner to feed the wires through.Only potential drawback is power is only provided with the motor running.

Why not run directly to the battery? No risk then of interfering with the Canbus or VSS.

This is not a good idea when dealing with stuff that can drain the battery if accidently left on, if someone plays with the buttons when you are not around, like when you are at a hotel, or can have a constant power drain. I always put stuff like stereos to a switched power source.

I have a FZ-1 fuse block. It can be configured for either switched power or always-hot.

Use the accessory wire behind the Frunk for your switched power.

Anyone care to post a pic of the accessory wire.... Or identify it by color?

If you check out the Manual, it shows you how to find all 3 Accessory Conections.

It is covered by black tape, with a label on it saying accessory.....not sure what color the wires are under the tape.
If you remove the bucket in the Frunk and look to the right above the battery you should find it.
