Need help installing radar detector and dashcam
Hi all - new member here. Got my trailhawk just a few days ago and I was wondering how to go about installing my radar detector. The user manual is pretty useless and I wasn't able to find a diagram, and doing a Google Search yields no results as far as getting a KL specific fusebox diagram.
Here's what I'm trying to do: I want to install my Escort 9500ix the same way I had it in the A4. The radar detector basically tapped into a fuse slot using an add-a-circuit connector. Hooked it up to ignition so the radar only turned on when the car was on.
The DVR however was hooked up to an always-hot fuse slot so I can use its motion detection/parking mode functionality (for up to 30 or so hours). I did use an uninterrupted power supply with it, so it would turn off the camera if it detected my battery voltage has dropped to 11.6v. It was a great setup that made everything automatic and kept me from waking up to a dead battery.
Can someone help me locate which fuse slots are always hot and acc? I'd greatly appreciate the help! Looks like jeep forgot a lot of things.. there aren't even any labels on the fusebox!! Thank you.
