If you have it on one wire and there's no power, then when you turn your key you get 12v, then you know that must be your ignition one. Whenever there is a constant 12v (should be around there), that is your direct power to the battery. It's a process of elimation basically. I wouldn't guess on colors. My power wire was blue I believe with a yellow line through it. The colors on my car was totally different than normal cars. Don't want to take any guesses and blow anything up ![]() |
