863 ACC power

mogman · Jun 2, 2013

I have some fans I would like to mount in the cab of my series F 863, I see two 20A ACC fuses in the rear and one is switched, I just have no idea where to pick up the switched power for the fans, I have a digital copy of the manual and as far as wiring it is totally useless. Thanks

Well to answer my own question, I pulled the left inst. panel and found the very common dc power connector (rubber one male one female) problem solved Craig

You may want to install in inline fuse for good measure too, just in case.

Yes I did, but when I first tested it I thought it was switched, but it is not, Oh well it would be hard to get off the machine and not notice those two fans blowing on the back of your neck...

There will be switched power too, i can't remember if it's orange or orange with a black stripe.
