Hello again!
Thank you all for your help. In fact, it was so nice that I'm going to ask for some more of it!! Here's my next 3 questions that have come up:
1- I was under the impression that the always-on wiring harness also had a cut-off point so that it would not drain your battery. Is that untrue?
2- does it REALLY matter which wiring harness I use? I've been looking on Amazon.ca, and finding multiple units that all appear to be the same thing. I'm talking about absolutely identical units... except for the prices. Those vary from $9.99 to $84.99, and price is definitely a big factor for me. I know that "you get what you pay for", but these things are IDENTICAL!
3- Installing a fuse holder of the type suggested makes a lot of sense, but what does that wire coming off of it get attached to? (So far I've been working while hanging upside down with my head in the driver's footwell in order to get to the fuse box, but there's no easily identifiable loose wiring down there. I'm not going to have to start dismantling the dash, am I?
Thank you all again; I really appreciate this!
