Anybody know a constant power source under the hood?

 

Under the Red cap on the Fuse box

 

horn

 

to much voltage from the cap but ill try the horn

 

Battery voltage at the post on the fusebox (under red cap), same at horn (when it blowing)

Hmmmm, what you trying to hook up?

 

12v leds

 

inst the post it a 12V source?

you could always tap off the running lights or another fuse

 

There's a map under the fuse box cover. Just read it. Pretty obv which ones are acc and which are constant...

 

If you want power anytime the key is on Acc & Run.
Use a fuse tap on the Sunroof fuse in the fuse box in the center console.
That's what i have my Halos hooked up to so that they are on all the time when the key is on.

Even if you don't have a sunroof like me the fuse is there and has power.

 

theres nowhere safe to get anything other than battery voltage (12v) under the hood or anywhere else for that matter. any of the open "big" fuse spouts in the block will have one spade connector that is hot at all times. If youre running LEDs youll need resistors or ideal a regulated power supply for them (the regulator would use battery power)

 

sorry for the late response but the pole thing under the hood on the fuse box is 12v but when the car starts it goes to around 14v. Leds will blow =\

 

power regulator?
or resistors?

 

I dont wanna add resistors,Ill try the trunk botton fuse

 

there is NO WHERE in the car that you can safely get 12v regulated power in the car. Every 12v voltage source in the vehicle is equal to battery voltage...which varies based on generator output. if you need a regulated voltage source, you need a voltage regulator....period.
