I have hooked up my wideband A/F guage and wired the keyed power wire to a fuse point in the fuse panel. The fused source does turn on with the key but like the radio doesnt turn off with the ignition or until the door opens. Is there a fuse space that turns completly off and doesnt stay on in acc mode or until the door opens? Or will this be ok and not burn the O2 sensor up by being on when the car isnt running?

fuse #13 SJB, is a switched 12vdc source

Diabolical!

I just went outside and snapped a couple of photos for you. They're hard to see, but they are the right side of the passenger kick panel fuse box. I used a vampire tap with two ten amp fuses into a previously occupied ten amp fuse location to run power to my wideband, boost, and fuel presure gauges. (If it helps, the fue I tapped is right above a 5 amp fuse.)

hey nine....i thought my pic was the
worst ever until i saw those ^^^^

for some reason, the sjb does not
like to be photographed!

Thanks for the pics they are a big help. I used the same type of tap.It has 2 fuse slots on top.Is one for the original fuse and one for the tapped wire? If it is which one is for the tapped wire? The reason I ask is the guage calls for a 5 amp fuse instead of the 10 amp.

hey killbee, yes one slot for original fuse, one
for the new circuit....not sure which is which...

killbee

Thanks again, I figured it out with all your help. The slotnear the terminals is for the original fuse and the back slot is for theadd-on fuse.Now it works the way it should, now if my supercharger will hurry up and get here. Thanks again

hey you're welcome, glad it worked out

Diabolical!

Lol. You're not kidding. Especially when you're using a crappy camera phone.

Did you have to cut the SJB cover to use that location? I had to notch out a small section so the wire could pass through.

that fuse cover was such a PITA to get off, that
i never put it back on!

i will someday.....and at that point, yeah i'll
have to make a little notch....
