'03 Nav Ultimate 12v power supply in overhead where?

(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

Posted by: ejfiii

Just bought my '03 Ultimate two days ago. Want to wire my radar detector to the overhead console but after searching for more than 30 minutes with my meter I couldn't find a 12vdc power line up there. I know it has to be there - couldn't even get 12v at the side lights (but the lights work fine).

So can anyone steer me to a 12vdc (and ground) wire up there in the over head console?

Thanks in Advance.

Okay, if anyone cares I had to go all the way over to the handle bolt in the a pillar to get a good ground. Found the 12v in one of the map light feeds - its the green with red stripe wire on the driver side map light feed.

Now, if only I could figure out why the power tailgate thinks its ajar all the time.....

Spray a little WD-40 on the latch? It works for the Mark VIII!
