able Posted August 17, 2018 Author Share Posted August 17, 2018 Update managed to sort the problem if anybody interested removed panel around selector lever (2parts) small one first friction fit then 2 clips on second part to press ( this one is harder to release ) this now will give you access to cig lighter wiring see pic.livefeed to lighter ign feed Green/ purple strip. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexp999 Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Why not just add-a-circuit from the passenger fusebox? That's how I'm powering my dashcam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What fuse are you using? and do you know what size it is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
able Posted August 18, 2018 Author Share Posted August 18, 2018 I found the fuse box not easy to access when messing about with the Electrics also the add on fuse connectors don’t always fit correctly and the last thing you want is a high resistance connection. The cig lighter fuse position and Amperage by the book are pos 83 Amp. 20. i chose to connect to this circuit as the camera would be taking very little current I just connected to the green / purple feed wire then ran the wire to the glove box with a inline 1Amp fuse then used a aftermarket cig socket so I could connect / Disconect the circuit easily from within the glove box at the top tray.My camera came with a cig lighter plug fitted to cam wire.As for the Earth connection just used any convenient point with a Earth bolt . I have previously used this type of setup on previous Fiestas . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
