just a quick install video on the GME Xrs 370c unit on my ford ranger wildtrack . xrs 370c 4wd pack - www.gme.net.au... #gme #uhf #diy #install #radio #ford #ranger #XRS #4wding #adventure
Just a quick note, as per owners manual and common knowledge by auto sparkies, do not connect any accessory negative to the negative terminal of the battery. State of charge and load is sensed via this terminal. All Negative connectors must go to a body or engine earth. i.e. fender bolt or engine bracket bolt. I hope you have had no ill effects, as warranty will be voided.
@@razvanduta3563 There is a shunt on the negative side of the battery which measures what's going on in terms of amps in and out. All loads should be on the vehicle side of this shunt. Putting something on the battery side of the shunt can cause things to get out of sync. In reality, this device is going to draw so little it probably wont matter to much. However, it would be a major problem for a high draw device like a DCDC charger or winch etc.
Super job man 🤝
@@florinvoicufv thank you !
Good video mate, just a tip . A bit of silicone spray on your wires that your pulling through the rubber gromet can make things go through easier
This helped me out so much, thank you!
Anytime mate thank you !
Thanks for posting mate, super helpful!
Thank you for taking the time to watch 🤘
Why didn’t you tap into an aux fuse ? Instead of running directly to the battery?
At the time I couldn't work out what was best ! Definitely somthing that I could have looked at !
Have you installed spotlights? if so a tutorial would be amazing
Havnt yet mate but I can do that for you :) I'll do one asap !

Is that to avoid a closed loop as in possible eddy currents generation?

Great advice thank you ! I will try to ad a note into the video to fix this !
