switched 12V

Where is everyone pulling the switched 12 for the MS from?

Hmm you know what that wire goes to? I dont like tapping into random wires...

Well after looking over some wiring diagrams it looks like my best bet would be to tap into the no9 fuse thats used for the airbags. I dont think there should be any issues with using this line for switched power for my Inovative WB and my MS

I would say it depends on where your running your cables to, and if you're cutting them.

I ran my MS cabling all the way to the stock ECU location and connected there. Switched 12V would be the third connector from the top (I don't remember if that's C1 or C3) pin 11. It will be Blue with a Red stripe. NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH TOP CONNECTED PIN11 WHICH IS ALSO SWITCHED 12V, AND IS BLUE/ORANGE STRIPE BUT CONNECTS TO A/C COMPRESSOR.

Don't make the same mistake I did. That's all.

For the WB, since it's going to be in the cabin, and I don't smoke; I used the swtiched 12V power for the cigar lighter. It's easy, it's already there, its fused, I will never use it for anything and it's 12V. Win-win.


Good luck!

I think Floyd is asking in reference to his 2.0L ngc. If that is the case, the wire is blue with a white stripe. There is also a blue and white wire going to the fuse block that you could use.

Ok ill look into this and see where this wire goes. And yes its a 2.0 NGC
Im looking to hook up the MS inside the cabin (one less to pass through the wall) and keep the WB power stuff outside where it is.

Remember I have to power the gauge and the actual "brain" of the WB also.

Ok the DB/WT wire goes to fuse 11 and its 10amp. It goes to the cluster RKE and the sentry system.Ill power my MS from this source.

I don't know if its been said but that 12v needs to be on during cranking. If you do a quick search on neons.org someone made a digram with pin numbers for 00+

Yea I know this circuit has power for "run" and "start" only so im good
