318I TECH PROCEDURE - V1 HARDWIRE

I typically drive the speed of traffic or the speed limit if no one is around me. I got a V1 Radar Detector because I drive one hour each way to work. The V1 has paid for itself and has been the most sensitive and sophisticated radar detector I've ever used. The sensitivity is amazing. Radar sources are picked up at much greater distance than what my old detector. The arrows listing the direction of the radar are the best feature of this detector. After using the arrows and seeing from what direction the radar is emitting, using any other detector that just has a beep leaves you feeling blind.

Having a wire running from the cigarette lighter to the top of the car is messy, so I decided to hardwire my V1 into my car. The goals for this hardwiring are to keep the V1 as high in the car as possible and close to the center of the car. I also wanted it to be easily removable so it doesn't get stolen.

REQUIRED TOOL LIST:

• Soldering Iron/Solder
• Electrical Tape
• Wire Cutters
• Phone cord with RJ-11 connector
• Inline fuse holder

The first thing you need to do is to determine if you have a 12V source going to panel above the rear view mirror on your windshield. If you have a check control system or a power sunroof, you will have a 12V source. My car came with just a basic check panel that blinks SRS Airbag and Seatbelt and I have a crank sunroof. I had to get a 12V source. Look at my Maplight Mirror Installation page to see picture of how I routed 12V to this area.

For those of you who have 12V up there, I think these are the proper pins from the check control system to grab the 12V and ground needed for the V1.

• Pin 9 = Ground
• Pin 15 = Constant 12V
• Pin 23 = Switched 12V

Use switched 12V so the detector is on only when the key is in the car. You won't need your radar detector if the key isn't in the car and you don't want to accidentally leave it on and drain power from the battery.

I got a small inline fuse and soldered it to the red wire. I used a 5 amp fuse.

Here is a picture of the telephone cord attached to the fuse. Solder the green telephone wire and the inline fuse holder to the 12V source and ground. Use electrical tape to nearly tape everything up. Also wrap up the non-used colors like yellow and black.

I ran the RJ-11 connect out from the roof lining right near the sun visor and still use the visor clip so the V1 can come down easily. When the V1 is taken down, the wire can be nearly tucked behind the visor.
