I am hardwiring a Valentine 1 in the Z. I found that reading the wire on the left side of car by the resting pedal that there is a wire that reads 12V when the ignition is turned on. I'm curious to know if anyone knows what that wire is?

If you have factory manual it's spot 16A from wire harness M4.

Thanks.

BTW. I tapped into the wire but couldn't get power so I'm guessing that since I had to put the multimeter on the cutout parts in the frame because I think the frame itself is coated maybe so I couldn't get a reading that I may have a bad ground which is preventing me from powering on the radar.

Sorry end of work so I hope I make sense.

 

I would advise against tapping into random wires and would rather see you choose a circuit with purpose. The cigarette lighter is a good one as is the radio's.
