Default Installation Part 2 - 10-19-2006 , 08:08 PM


Okay, so now I had to find the wires from the cargo light circuit.

That's easy, you can just pop the cargo light fixture right out and look. Two wires. One Brown with a Yellow stripe and one Red with a Gray stripe.

Uh oh... two Brown with Yellow Striped wires!


Easy, we use the meter or test light before and after the dome light circuit goes out from it's timer.

I found that one is always grounded and one is only grounded when the dome light is on. So, that's the one we need. (It seemed a bit larger in gauge to me also).

I then stripped the hot wire (Red with Gray stripe) and attached the red wire from the inverter. You can see I already covered the wire that will not be used.

WARNING! If you do not disconnect your battery you must NOT let this wire or any tool touching this wire touch the body of the car or another ground source (Brown with Yellow striped wires are ground sources).


I then carefully soldered the joint and wrapped the open joint with electrical tape about four times.

Next the black ground wire from the inverter was attached to the Brown with Yellow striped wire and is ready for soldering.


Next I soldered and wrapped this joint with electrical tape. Again about four times is good. Then I wrapped all three wires again about four times and re-wrapped the bundle with the factory cloth wrap and secured it back down.


Enjoy the road, enjoy the ride, but most importantly... enjoy life.
