Im just double checking with you guys. Im doing a 791xv on my buddys 2003 ford escape and Im looking for the igntion wires. The only ones I have found are small guage wires but the color matches up according to directechs. They are even metered correctly. Does this vehicle have small guage ignition wires or what? Im kinda hesitant to hook my relay pack. They are the wires coming directly out of the key cylinder. I have tried following them back to find bigger guage wires but no luck.
Where are the bigger guage ignition wires at? Or does this not have big guage igntion wires. I will avoid my relay pack right now and hook up the rest of the alarm
Thanks fellas
Just make sure your unit doesn't require more than 30 amps to operate....which I doubt
