any one no of a good place to tap into for constant power? i dont really want to tap in with the amp. anywhere around the dash will be a good location. i need it to hook up my dvd player. any suggestions will be helpful. thankz

 

wait, what exactly are you trying to do? how about hooking it upto the battery?

 

im trying to hook up my dvd player. i dont really want to run the wire all the way to the battery. i just need constant power on so when i turn off my car the dvd will turn off, but when i start my car, the movie will be right where i left off. instead of starting all over again. get it?

 

is this a DVD headunit? maybe you can run the power to one of the fuses in the fusebox?

 

yes it is. are you talking about the fuse box thats under the hood? is there any good location under the dash?

 

Why not use the amp power and ground? You know it's fairly clean... : )

 

i was thinking about it, but im using the one next to it for remote already and i dont want to squeze in for the power. its kind of tight around there.

 

if you don't have navi, you can tap into the navi fuse pretty easily.

 

i have navi. im getting my navi to tv on wednesday.

 

so u dont wanna hook it up via a wiring harness?

 

i dont want to if theres another place for me to hook the power some where around there. but ill hook it up there if i dont have any other choices.

 

TSX559 can you clean up your PM box a bit. thanks



So connecting to fuse still does not provide constant power right ?
For constant power it must ne direct connection to battery ?

 

don't connect it to constant, you want to connect it to ignition so its not on all the time

 

fuse slot number 18 is open for my 2004 tsx with nav. it is hot while key is not inserted. You can use that one, that is the one i am using right now.

check with a multi-meter and you will find that slot is hot.
