Step 15 - Battery Connection

The last wire connection that needs to be run is the Yellow power wire to the battery. The easiest way to run this wire is to remove the center console and passenger transmission tunnel panel. To do this, the passenger seat will need to be removed first, then the center console. The panel that surrounds the shifter needs to have one plastic rivet removed to make it easier to remove the transmisson tunnel.

Once connected, the unit is now powered and ready for amplifier connections. Refer to the PMX-0 manual for wiring schematics.
