Constant Power connection MUST ALWAYS be made directly to battery.
NOTE: NOTE: NOTE: NOTE: On rear engine buses, an alternative 12V source in the power distribution panel can be utilized.
However, connection will vary from installation to installation.
Always use grommets when running the harness through sheet metal holes.
Avoid excessively tight bends especially around metal surfaces.
Use fuse holder and the 15 Amp fuse provided on the 12V+ connection (do not exceed 15 Amp fuse).
Connect fuse as close to power source as possible.
Use cable ties to secure harness and fuse holder.
Use correct terminal size for wire gauge.
10-12 AWG = Yellow
14-16 AWG = Blue
18-22 AWG = Red
Use ratcheting crimpers for terminal installation.
