Need to install a gauge
and it needs 12v power
the instructions state to 'connect to a switched 10-18 volt power source utilizing a 10A fuse'
now i have the fuse setup, just wondering on a point to tap for the power in my EF8 Crx?

Plug it straight into the front of the fuse box with a female spade terminal attached,to one of the spare terminals there.
Should be about 5 spare terminals,1 or 2 of them will be switched on with ignition,keep changing the wire until u find which one is switched.
referring to these crxer??:

should i just use a 12v test light to verify if they work on ignition?
seems to be some weird wiring from them for a parker switch setup, are they normally all free?
Yep,those are the terminals.
U can use a test light if u have one,or just use trial & error as i said previously.
If i remember right ,one is a constant supply,one is an accessory switched supply,two are ignition switched supplies & the other is a light switch switched supply as u mentioned.
They are normally all free unless someone has hooked some other accessory up to them.
thanks for the info :)
I did my gauge, buy pulling out a fuse, sticking the gauge wire in the fuse holder and then sticking the fuse back in there. The fust holds in the cable, so no soldering required.
