Re: 12 volt feed that works thru ignition accessory switch.

Peter Peter, did manage to find that the cause was the boot light being on all the time - small piece of debris on the lock. These cars are really sensitive.

Hi Guys, Can anyone tell me in layman's terms how I can tap a 12 volt feed (for a second cigar lighter) that routes through the accessory side of the ignition switch?
