I'm trying to find the wire that powers the ignition key ring light (the blue/green key ring light)...

Actually, I'm looking for a wire that will have power when you unlock the doors and will go out after the 30 sec or if you start the car. I think only the key ring light and the dome lights both have this behavior... but the dome light seems to be also connected to the door open switch sensors so it might not be what I want..

Any ideas where to locate this wire? somewhere near the driver's footwell/fuse box would be good... I'm trying to put in some LED's for footwell lights...

 

use the domelight supervision wire or just take the steering coloumn cover apart and look the that wire.

domelight = green/red - rear of fuse box, lt. grn 5 pin plug

 

what you looking gto do ?

 

so how does the domelight supervision wire work? gets power whenever the domelight switch is on or when the door is opened if it's switched to 'door' position?

and I'm assuming green/red wire is the supervision wire you're talking about, right? Would you have a pic of it?


huckleberry, I'm just trying to put in a few LED's for footwell lighting that will work the same way as the domelights/keyring light (turns on for 30 secs after unlock, and turns off when the car is running or after 30 sec).

 

sorry no pictures but it works when the doors all unlock and goes off after 30 seconds or when lock or start the car. also it's on when one of the doors are opened.

 

ahh ok, that's exactly what I'm looking for

Let me go try and find this wire...

 

Just put footwell lights into my tsx today, although, I wanted them on with the other ambient lights..like the rl and tl footwells .so I wired them to the light in the compartment. I got the 4 led accent lights.. i almost feel like they are too bright... I will post pics tommorow if I remember
