Bulldog and Design Tech said that the accessory wire for this car is YELLOW but Commando wiring diagrams said the Yellow was the second ignition not the accessory. I did verify that by using the volt meter try to test the YELLOW wire. It does not have power at (I) accessory, only get power at (II). If it has power at (II) It should be the ignition wire not accessory. What is the accessory wire for this car. I see there a wire WHITE/ RED at ignition harness. Could anybody double check with me with the above information. Thank you

I have yellow as the acc. wire. Do you know the difference between an acc. wire and an ignition wire?

First of all, i want to correct the mistake on the first post. Designtech said that the YELLOW as the ignition 2 wire and WHITE/ BLACK is accessory but i cannot find the WHITE/ black wire for acc. at the ignition harness. while Commando and Bulldog said it was the accessory wire. Was my above testing method correct if so Yellow gonna be the ignition 2 wire. Can you tell me the different between ignition and acc. wire? The car all hooked up and work fine. But i wanna my radio work too so i need that accessory wire. I measured with the voltmeter. It did not show 12v at (I) or accessory position.

-ignition should metre 12 volts in the on, crank and run position

-acc should metre 12 volts in the on, not the crank and the run position
