Thanks James I figured it out before your post it was quite obvious had a brain fart there. After further trouble shooting I realized my constant (yellow) had no power going through it so I ran some wire straight from the batt to my constant and voila it worked. I could of sworn I checked all the fuses but I went back and rechecked and found the culprit and the problem.

i figured the 12v on the meter was you measuring the yellow constant.

yea i had a major brain fart this morning trying to figure this out... idk what happened but glad i eventually smartened back up.

i do complex wiring at work almost every day, troubleshooting, tracing and rewiring of aircraft equipment but yet this morning i was an idiot. being on leave is getting to me :trippy:

I was going to suggest checking your fuses, but I figured you were experienced enough to have done that already. Oh well, we all have our brain farts :)

Bassless once again. Can't seem to keep a system for more than a few weeks :)
