I'm connecting it to C as showed in the pic on the Tech FAQ v2 https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=181443

Now on this page http://www.s2000.org/mods/radar/ it says it goes through a fuse.

So do i or dont i need an inline fuse, and if so what Amp fuse?

Cheers

 

Yep, I used an inline fuse.

Also I just realised that I had the laser plugged into the green wire and not the blue, now wonder the infrared test did not work! Its does now.

 

yup, 1 amp inline fuse budgie - Maplins have the holder and the fuse

EDIT: are you butchering the existing cable or adopting the more professional DIY lead approach? you can get a a two corse wire premoulded with the correct AC plug from Maplins too.

 

What Amperage?

 

I think i might have one in the Shed

an evening project tonight perhaps

 

1 amp., as I said!

 

We simultaneously posted methinks

 

I hardwired a 12v accessory socket (sits in the passenger cargo well net) last week, and it was a real b@gger working under the dash (although I'm not exactly svelte) - getting a ring terminal onto the earth point was VERY tricky.

 

I put a second 12v "lighter socket" under my left knee. Cost me ~

 

Try to find some "T" taps. These make tying into ground connections much easier than using the "ring" type of connectors.

AE, although those 3 empty power taps on the fuse panel are already fused, they are fused via high amperage fuses under the hood (bonnet for you guys). An inline fuse of 1 to 3 amps is always wise for any accessory.
