Last night I spent 4 hours looking for a 12V Switched source for a turn on lead, and ended up using the dreaded toggle meathod instead. The customer wants to retain the stock head unit, but added an amp and sub with a converter. I have never come across this problem, and endless searching has brought me here once again.

The only thing i can find in the database  is an accessory wire in the ECM (brown i think). Im sure i tested it, but the night is a little fuzzy.

Has anyone had experience with this particular vehicle? Or point me in the right direction.

Thanks

Go to the passenger kick panel and pull the fusebox there is the retained accessory wiring it's either yellow or yellow/black from what I remember. You can also use the brown or pink at the ignition harness, but you MUST add a relay.
