ok, what i am needing to do is power my screen and my dvd player, they both take 12V. my idea was to use the remote line coming from the radio and tap into that once right up front by the radio for the screen power, then once in the back ,by the amp, for the dvd player power...
my question is, would this be ok to do or would one unit be drawing power away from the other two...
OR is there a better way I should get the power...the main thing is that I don't want to have to physically turn of the DVD player and the screen indivdually or have to use a switch or anything...
Just post back whatever here or you can AIM- MrNiceGuy1437...
I would stay away from the remote wire. It typically on supplies .5 amps of power anyway. Instead I would recommend Putting a T-tap on the yellow wire coming from the back of your head unit. This is your 12volt constant wire. Connect the t-tap before the fuse if it is a fused line. You can then run the wire to both your dvd player and screen. Keep in mind though that they will always have power running to them and it could possibly draing your battery. If you want them to turn on when the key is in the accessory position, connect to the red wire instead of the yellow wire. Follow the same process as with the yellow wire.
Good Luck
