Hi everyone,

Iv started fitting a hawk alarm to my car, but iv not connected it to a switch live, so the alarm Re-arms when im driving it

But wheres the best place to find one? Ive mounted the unit behind the glove box, so any ideas?

thanks!

the most obvious place would be the ignition switch or a switched fuse in the fuse box

Iv had a look at the ignition and i dont understand it And there are no spare fuses in the fuse board

Could there be one at the Cd player?

use a test light between earth and the wires you are testing the bulb will only light when ignition turned on.you have then found your switched live

Yeah, i know how to test for one, but i just dont understand how to take the ignition apart, iv looked in the haynes manual, but its not there

But could i use the switched live at the Cd player? i dont wanna damage anything if i cock it up thats all

follow wires from switch to loom and you will find a multi plug go in there if not try your fag lighter mine only works when ignition turned on.hope this helps mate

Yah cheers for your help mate, out of three forums youve been the most help so cheers !

we aim to please best of luck buddy

It worked ! thanks again pal!
