    Great video, I have a Jeep Renegade and it was a pain in the ass just to change a blown 12v fuse. I ordered this wiring kit, I just hope the fuse tap will fit in there. You have to remove 4 screws and two panels and even then you can't hardly get to it. Only one way to find out if it will work I guess.

    Add a circuit (fuse tap) is $10.49, hard wire $19.95, & the mirror mount is $29 on Ebay. I already have this mirror mount but using the factory power cord. I will be going w this set up soon to get rid of the annoying hanging power cord. (Lexus RC350F)

    Hello, for the hardwire kit, how did you connect the positive (red cable with plastic metal prong) into the fuse tap? The fuse tap connector is circular and the hardwire kit's red cable has a flat metal connect with a plastic cover over it?

    • @dial2fast
      @dial2fast  6 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      You need to cut off the flat metal connecto and then crimp the round connector from the fuse tap onto the cut wire. See 4:11 as to what it looks like. You will need to use a crimper tool to do the crimp. You can also see my how to crimp video here: th-cam.com/video/uaYdCRjDr4A/w-d-xo.html

    I was curious to see how this mount is holding up for you. I am trying to decide whether to go with or the much more expensive Blend mount.

    • @dial2fast
      @dial2fast  6 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      The mount I used here is a solid one. The whole thing is metal and once you tighten all the knobs, it''s solid. The only thing I wish it was better design is the clamp that goes over the mirror arm. Half the clamp is curve, the other half is flat, so you don't really have a complete wrap around clamping on the arm. Now keep in mind, all the pieces are solid metal, so you can clamp down fine, but that's the only thing I thing can be better. The one I installed is perfectly fine and I have no problem with it.

  • @kb3dow
    @kb3dow 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Very informative, no nonsense video. BTW did you ever think of one of those cables that had a mute button built into them that you could place somewhere on the steering column to avoid reaching over to the detector to mute it each time.

    • @dial2fast
      @dial2fast  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I did look into those, but I decided I don't need one more thing to stick on the dash. Especially when I can press the mute button on the radar detector that's a foot away from me. Just my personal thought in this.

  • @srip999

  • @srip999
    @srip999 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    This is very odd. But when i removed the 20A fuse (one of the three), first one, all 3 power sockets still work?? We have 3 outlets-one in center console, one second row and a third one in trunk and after removing the fuse, all three still work fine and charge my phone. Am i missing something? Should they work once i remove the 20A fuse??? Thanks for your response.

    • @srip999
      @srip999 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Ignore this. I didn’t realize we actually have 4 sockets and the first one is under radio and that is controlled by that fuse 😀

    Did you cut and strip the wire on the hardwire kit to the fuse tap? Or did you somehow use the connector that came on the hardwire kit? Thx!

    • @dial2fast
      @dial2fast  หลายเดือนก่อน

      I cut off the hardwire kit spade connector (on the red wire) and crimped a butt connector onto the fuse tap.

    Will you blow a fuse if you have to many hardwire things to the same power source?

    • @dial2fast
      @dial2fast  6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yes you will blow the fuse if have too many things on the circuit. You should add all the current draw of each device and make sure it does not exceed the fuse rating.

    How do you like the radar detector? Pros and cons?

    • @dial2fast
      @dial2fast  6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      One of the best detectors I have had. With the GPS lockout and the ability to mute alert below a certain speed limit, this reduces most of the false you get when driving in the city and parking lots. The range is also very good from day one. Now I will say, it's not 100% quiet with no false, but it's much more friendly to use compare to units without GPS, and the DSP filter.

    • @dial2fast
      @dial2fast  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      As for what fuse type, you need to take a look at your fuse box and see what type it uses. I have listed links of where you can buy each type in the video description. As to what fuse amperage rating to use, you can use a 5A or 10A fuse.

    • @dial2fast
      @dial2fast  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      First refer to the fuse panel label for reference, then test the fuse circuit with a multimeter to makes sure it's ignition 12V. Use fuse that are not critical like ABS, SRS, etc. Look for fuses that might be labeled ACC (accessory) or Power Outlet.

  • @ja-no6fx
    @ja-no6fx 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    voltage doesnt travel bro... voltage is what overcomes resistance to allow AMPERAGE to flow. The word youre looking for is amperage. That is why those fuses are are rated as 20 AMPS because if more than 20 amps flows through it, the fuse is destroyed. Also, I wouldn't use that fuse tap to draw power, super unprofessional and just looks ratty... Next time find a switched power, constant power and use a proper relay with an inline fuse. What youre teaching here is great for the person who wants to do it quick and dirty... But you might as well do it right since you've got everything apart anyway...

    • @markus3666
      @markus3666 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Doing all the extra can void certain car warranties. If you run through the fuse, you can prove that it's all fully reversible with no negative effects.
