Connect to the auxiliary battery
ground connection using a ring
terminal at the ground M6
weldnut behind the LH (driver’s)
side kick panel.
Maintain as great a distance as
possible between mobile radio
power leads and the vehicle’s wiring.
Avoid running power leads in
parallel with vehicle wiring over long
distances.
Transceiver location
A transceiver location should be selected that provides a solid mounting
point which does not interfere with the vehicle operator controls and
provides adequate ventilation. Do not mount any transceiver,
microphones, speakers, or any other item in the deployment path of the
airbag system.
Before using screws to mount the transceiver equipment, be sure to
check for vehicle wiring under the carpet or behind the instrument panel
which could be pinched, cut or otherwise damaged.
Antenna location and installation
Permanently installed sheet metal mount antennas are preferable over
magnetic, glass, or body lip mounts for anything other than low power or
temporary installations. Most of these alternate antennas can reflect
significant power back at the feed point. This reflected power could then
radiate from the feed line inside the passenger compartment and be
picked up by the vehicle wiring.
