[QUOTE="boomzilla, post: 5081263, member: 587708"] I burnt out my switched 12v wire awhile back because of a faulty Ipod cord that shorted for my Pioneer h/u, and took my 12v switched wire with it. No popped fuses, or relays, I've checked 4 times, checked the h/u fuse, it's fine. So it has to be the wire. The way my Cavy is wired, the stock harness needs a module plugged in for aftermarket h/u's, which I have, and the 12v switched, constant 12v, and ground are seperately wired somewhere within the depths of my dash. I can't and wont take it apart, so what I've done is pulled a switch from an old welding machine, used a 14g wire from my distro block to the switch, and from the switch to my remote on my amp. Is this ok to run for an extended amount of time? My dealership said they'd need a special tech to come in and work on it, and that's too much money. Any input? Cliffs: Burnt switched 12v wire, im running a switch to turn on my amp, is it ok for an extended amount of time. [/QUOTE]
