I am trying to hardwire my Garmin to the accessory delay. I bought an add-a-circuit, in fact I bought 3 different ones, and none of them will go into the fuse panel because of the way its designed with the ribs between rows of fuses.

For now, I tapped a 12v constant wire to get power and I am turning it off and on manually. I keep forgetting to turn it off, so I really want to get it switched over since the Garmin has an auto power off when it looses DC power.

Since I can't get to a delayed circuit, I need to find a wire that I can tap and put an inline fuse adapter in leading to the hidden lighter plug I installed.

Any ideas?

Looking at the 2013 diagrams there should be a green/violet wire going to the window motors which is acc delay controlled. Don't know if it's the same color for any other year model, the best (easiest) way to make sure is to use a computer safe self powered test light, it lights green when on a ground circuit and red when hot, red/green when it's an open circuit.

Use an ATM mini add-a-circuit. It fits perfectly.


I have one in fuse position 37 I think it was. Only thing is, you can't properly close the cover.

Thats exactly what I used when I installed my gauges. Worked great, just couldnt get the small cover back on the fuse panel.
