Re: Switched live piggy back fuse

Finally got around to sorting this out. Managed to neatly use cigarette lighter and the washer pump fuses. Cheers for advice ;-)

Re: Switched live piggy back fuse

Cheers for all the feedback and suggestions. I hope to have another look at this later today or tomorrow. I'd rather piggy back off fuses than cut into the looms. Hopefully the headlight washer for switched live and front lighter for permanent will suffice the needs of the power magic pro. Cheers ag...

Re: Switched live piggy back fuse

Cheers for replies
Struggling with concept of using footwell wiring.
Cigarette lighter, using this as it's constant 12v
I'm using the blackvue power pro to monitor battery level which requires another feed when the ignition is on.
Any ideas for an old school switched live ?

Switched live piggy back fuse

Good evening. To avoid poking about in the fuse panel, any of you good folk know which fuse can be used as a switched live for my blackvue using one of those piggy back fuse connectors ?
Cheers

Re: Over run / crackle option

I also have mrc stage 2 with crackle and love it but occasionally it does draw attention when perhaps not appropriate lol You'd like to think that the crackle map could be linked to the sport button. I'm no expert on this but my S button changes throttle response which I'd have thought is part of th...

Re: Standard ride height

Might be a bit late but if it helps I'm on H&R springs with DRC
Rim to arch on Front is 75mm with 60/65mm on Rears
Personally I'd normally prefer to see it level but happy with the way it sits on the springs

Re: CTEK Battery Charger

Connected mine up in the boot now. Positive to the battery terminal and negative to body. Used what would've been the spare wheel mounting point by battery in the well. Already has a threaded hole, so just used a 5mm bolt and washer. Routed cable to come up in the boot side pocket making it easy to...

Re: CTEK Battery Charger

This is a great idea. Definitely going to look at doing something similar to avoid removing that horrible scuttle panel.
Good job :-)

Re: CTEK Battery Charger

Found this video, perhaps it's not that straight forward.

Great link for bits by the way
