just run a wire to the battery or a power feed to the ac then sand the body somewhere and connect a wire to a bolt or screw drilled into where you sanded and you should be fine. as long as you run a positive to the battery, then make your accesory wire tie into something that gets power when the keys on you should be back to bumpin. |

no, acc is basiclly a switch if u hard wire the radio to 12 volts it will always be on and drain the battery. i had a 1986 suburban and i just wired into a power feed for the ac, the other way outwould be run a switch to the accesory and wire the accesory to 12 volts. the only problem is if you ever forget to flip the switch your battery might go dead when the car was parked. |

no ur one was prob blown along time ago and the air preassure in the box made the other move. and as long as you clock wire clk usually yellow is wired to power yes it will remember everything. |
