Hello,

I am happy cuz after a trip to the junkyard i found the "acessory RPM(small kind)" and the voltmenter on another 240.

i was installing them, and for the lighting i tapped into the acessory lighting which torns on when i turn the lights ON Cool. But when looking for the 12 volt sorce that turns on with the accessory key (switched 12V) i couldn't find it anywhere!!! took some readings behind the dash and all i found was the clock 12V, which is always ON.
My question is Does anybody know which whire do i need to tap into to get the switched 12V(maybe from the round connector behind the dash) can anyone tell me which color wire should i tap into.?
I looked at the hayes manual and left me more confused!!!

thanks a lot for the help.
