12v power supply fuse

[metgo]

Does anyone know what fuse the ciggerette lighter plug is?

It's in the rear box. It's the one that has a slot that's made to be switched between two spots.
One position for keyed power, and the other for full time power.

I thought I read somewhere that you could also move a fuse to another position and make the rear aux power switched? If so, I'd love to know which one? I'm fixing to install a back up camera and want to wire it to that instead of the backup lights so that I can turn it on as long as the car is running..

TIA!

20A Yellow. If it's inline with the row, it's hot all the time; if it's offset like in the pic, it's switched. (Unless I got it backwards. lol - it's been a while)

Thanks Junior! Beans to ya!

heh.. Well, went out to the mag, you are correct on the fuse and location.. However, that plug is hot no matter what position the fuse is in? Am I doing something wrong? lol I'd really like to not tap into the turn signals and don't want the camera to be on all the time for fear that it will kill my battery.. :(

Thanks Again,

Are you sure? With the key out, it should only be hot in one position or the other, but not both.

OH - just read it again - the rear one (inside the elbow console) is hot all the time; it's the front cig lighter that's switchable.

haha.. You figured it out Junior I did too lol The hard way.. Kinda haha.. I was poking around with my test light and decided to poke it in the lighter and POP! lol blew the fuse two over to the left.. :D So now I know that one cannot be made switched. I just bit the bullet and soldered it into the backup lights. Got it all installed and working.. Some lines in the picture from noise, but nothing I can't live with.. Or it could be that it was a cheapo $14 night vision licence plate camera lol

Thanks Again!
