tombraider110 Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 i ran a new harness though for my gps. that way there was less chance of a problem and it has a permanent live feed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 did a similar thing with my 12xl, got the correct power/data cable for the unit & it's also connected to my Kemwood TM-D700 using the Kenwood cable for APRS use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest diesel_jim Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 I power mine from the stereo memory feed. that way it's already fused and permanent live, and as the GPS's hardly use any current at all, the fuse and wiring for the memory are ideal.
