Ignition sense to power relay?

Hello and forgive me if this has been posted before I searched and couldnt find anything about it. I want to install my Escort hard wire kit into my Dodge Dart but like with all the newer vehicles finding an accessory wire is like a finding a needle in a haystack. According to the DEI wiring information it states the accessory wire is (-) but for accessory sense only. My question is can this be used to power a relay or has anyone tried it? 85 - the (-) accessory sense wire 86 - 12 volt 87 - 12 volt 30 - Output Thanks

Theoretically that should work. Don't you have an (+) ignition wire, say at fusebox you can use, removing the need for a relay?

Are you trying to put a radio in a chrysler vehicle?

Is there a power outlet in the console? Mopar shows a pink / YELLOW as a fused ignition/accessory there.

The (+) ignition wire says its ignition sense only and I thought the power outlets were all constant but ill check again. Thanks for the help.

I do not know about the Dart, but it is common practice for Chrysler to have 2 positions for that fuse in the fusebox. One position is constant and the other will provide switched power to the outlets. Read the last post in this thread. https://www.the12volt.com/installbay/forum_posts.asp?tid=139478
