Power Magic Pro in the Mazda 5

[dpapas665]

Has anyone put one in a Mazda 5? Looks like, from testing like all of the fuses in my 2012, the interior box are all ACC+, no BATT. What's the best option to place the yellow wire? I assume not running through the firewall to the engine compartment fuse box.

Interesting. Don't see anything marked thus on the diagram (below). Also, none of the fuses tested live with the ignition off.

if your cargo compartment cig socket is live constantly (a lot are) you can use fuse 6 for constant power, everything else in that list that you might otherwise look at is likely switched/accessories only

by alarm Alex might be referring to the the hazard light circuit, that would be on a different fuse panel in your vehicle going by the details you have provided

Didn't seem so, but I'll double check. Assuming 6 isn't live, what would plan B look like?

probably look at the other fuse panel if you want an always on circuit

Sneaking a wire through the firewall usually isn't that hard. Can usually get it through a rubber boot/grommet somewhere.

Very good, thanks for the feedback all.
