Console Cabling
Refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 before routing or connecting any console cable.
The console should be cabled using the following procedure:
Note: 1. Due to space restrictions, it may be necessary to remove the console
before making connections to the connectors at the back of the
console. If this is the case, make all connections and remount the
console before replacing the 5-amp fuses.
2. For applications where the mounting structure of the console is
hinged (for example, swing cab), make sure to provide sufficient
service length for cables.
1. After setting the 2-foot (61 cm) section of the main power cable’s red lead
aside for later use, route the main power cable through the firewall and
into the vehicle battery area. Use an existing opening or, if necessary, drill
a 3/8-inch (1 cm) hole through the firewall. Insert a grommet (not
provided) into the hole to prevent damage to the power cable.
