wiring diagram + fusebox + 12v live

Post by psmpayne »

I know its been asked before (i did a search) but does anybody have a wiring diagram for a 6N?

Failing that, does anybody know how to remove the fuse/relay box inside the cubby under the steering wheel? I can see a grey clip that releases on the left and there seems to be one on the right but its out of sight and won't budge. Does it then lift out?

Finally if nobody knows that, where is the best place to get a permanent 12v live inside the car?

Many thanks

what will the 12v live be used for?

you can bring one in directly from the battery through the bulkhead - it's an easy job. otherwise you can easily access the radio permanent 12v too. it really depends upon what current draw your 12v needs.

Indeed, if the draw is only small, could just share the radio wiring, prob best to run anew fused line direct from the battery though :)

I'm fitting a remote central locking kit. Obviously this needs a permanent 12v live (rather than ignition switched).

I'd thought about using either the radio or fag lighter for the feed but would prefer something more substantial. I just wondered if there is a way of tapping into the permanent live in the fusebox.

I'd thought of taking it straight from the battery, where is the best place to bring it in through the bulkhead?

Its a 96 1.4CL if that helps

Many thanks in anticipation.
