Switched live

[Craig211]

Hey folks quick question. Is there a switched live in the engine bay anywhere or do I have to use one inside the cabin, ie radio or 12v socket

thanks for any help

 

[Craig211]

Anyone?

have you looked at the 2 small fuse/relay boxes next to the battery?

 

[Craig211]

Yeah I was sure I'd find something there but all the fuses are permanent lives and there are no connectors in the relay box just for the single relay that's already fitted, suppose I'll just have to run a lead through the bulkhead, I've noticed a massive grommet near the abs unit that should accommodate another wire

That's the gromet I Fed my Nitrous line through. Had to remove half the glove box and the airbox to get at it though.

 

[Craig211]

Got a maxogen so airbox ain't a problem and I'm sure if I push enough cable through it'll show up in the footwell

 

[Fernandez]

Just by the passenger footwell under the glovebox there is an ignition live, I took my nitrous controller feed from there.

With the passenger door open, remove the rubber strip from around the front, remove the plastic and you'll see

 

[Craig211]

Is that an extra cable or is it already connected to something? Probably have a look tomoro

Already connected but on a terminal point so you can just undo the nut and connect onto that, there's an earth point there too

 

[Craig211]

Ignition live on a nut? What's it powering haha most ignition lives are small gauge haha and I've seen the earth point when changing the glovebox light, thanks anyway hopefully get onto it tomoro

 

[Craig211]

Can't find that switched live, you don't have a pic by any chance? There's a lot of cables in there but all the large ones are permanent lives This is what I can see with the glovebox removed (don't know why they've rotated)
