Hi:
What is the best location to tap ignition status signal in F-150 XLT model year 2002. I am trying to use ignition status line to switch a GPS navigation system ON/Off when the vehicle is turned ON/Off using ignition key.
Thanks in advance!

If you want to be able to turn on the nav. unit without actually "starting" the rig, use an accesory wire. Grey / YELLOW.

If you want the rig to HAVE TO BE STARTED, and running, use Blue/Green
