(I checked the avail info - only alarm-related)
I need an under-hood keyed power source for an injection system. I have a pair of un-used 20A j-case fuses in the BJB that I wish I could use, but there are no fuse taps in existence for j-case fuses. So unless someone can point me to a suitable ACC power tap that has adequate oomph, I will likely feed thru a relay from the battery. But I still need a trigger.
The pump that I'm putting in supposedly has a peak draw of 11A, but it is fed via a controller with 18g wire and feeds the pump through 18g wire...so I would think it spends 99.9% of its time at closer to 1A or maybe 2A.
Please & thank you.

Success! I got going with the test light - probing the tiny contacts atop the array of MICRO fuses in the BJB, and I found a row of four (2 - 20A & 2 - 15A) that come alive with the ACC. They’re labeled “Vehicle Power” which is a mystery, because they’re not for power points in the cabin as I expected. But I installed a relay and a dedicated 10A MICRO fuse...so I should be good to go!
Thanks again for that link! That will be quite useful as I go forward.
Cheers!
