triplec19 Posted September 29, 2011 Report Posted September 29, 2011 I am looking to install a voltmeter i bough off ebay. The three wires are Power, Sensing wire and negative. Would i be able to just run this off of the ignition on wire in my truck so it turns on and shuts off by itself or do i need to use a relay?

triplec19 Posted September 29, 2011 Author Report Posted September 29, 2011 Ahhh thank you for the speedy respon, so using this chart would any of the "Ignition" wires be the ones that stay hot while the car is running? http://www.the12volt.com/installbay/alarmdetail/864.html

Katt Posted September 29, 2011 Report Posted September 29, 2011 why not just splice it to your remote turn on That way incase your deck shuts off the volt meter won't. Or if you want the deck off you can still watch voltage just incase. *06 330i - Sundern x12 - saz-3500* *91 Foxbody V1 S-Trim Notch*
