12 volt switched? After market stereo install.

[copper67440]

I'm reinstalling an aftermarket stereo CD player in 67 Coronet and can't remember where to hook up to a 12volt switched power source. I can go to the fuse bock directly for 12v constant.

there is at least one switched 12 volt at the fuse box as well.

You should be able to find a switched source in the fuse block. Just test light your fuses with the key off. Then see what ones are hot when you turn the switch on. On some vehicles the cigarette lighter has to be switched on to work. I like useing it if that's the case. Already fused too. If your radio has a clock you'll have to find a "hot all the time" for that wire...

The original radio power connector will have a switched connection to it ... you should be able to tap into that one easily.

Got it all hooked up. Factory radio orange switched. Cig 12v constant.
