Constant Power and Ignition wires

Almost all power and ignition wires can be found behind the key

cylinder under the lower drivers side dash panel. Using the

appropriate hand tools, remove the lower dash panel using care

not to break any parts. If the panel does not come off easily

check for any additional screws you may have missed.

Once the lower dash panel has been removed, locate the ignition

harness at the back of the key cylinder. This is usually a group of

thicker wires. With the ignition harness exposed, use your digital

multi-meter to find your power and ignition wires.

Place the black lead of the meter to a clean metal surface in the

kick panel area and secure it. Put the meter in the DC voltage

position, then take the red lead of the meter and probe one of the

thicker gauge wires. The color and identity of your specific

vehicle wiring can be obtained at www.diyhornet.com. With the

key in the OFF position, test the suspect wire. The constant

power wire will read between 11.00 volts and 13.00 volts regard-

less if the key is on or off.
