The fuse with the hardwire kit is 2A
ABOVE: OR should I cut behind the fuse and simply wire it to the AAF without the extra fuse. Basically I'm wondering if the double fuse would cause any issues.
Thanks for the help! |
DO NOT CUT ANYTHING.
EVERYTHING YOU HAVE IS PLENTY
The escort wiring system is fine for a radar detector. All you need to do is tap to power from the mirror (I forget what wire color it was but I'll find out) and then find a ground (simply a screw) up by the headliner and mirror and you have power with a fuse. This wiring harness doesn't need to be ran to the glovebox. That is the beauty of it.
