    Have to run the power/ground back to the bed, wire up compressor relay, water pump, bed lights and compressor switch wire...and that should wrap up the overhaul.

    Better to ask what I have not done.
    Wire that solenoid's on off into an ignition power so when the truck is off that is off. They will drian and tank your battery if left on. Its very hard on the battery and i will say sol because the battety can not do that.

    So the trigger wire needs to be on an ignition powered circuit?

    Like the 12v source to the switch that then goes to the relay needs to be ignition on instead of always hot?

    Yes. The little studs. The hot to the little studs need to be to an ignition power so it shuts off with the truck.

    Roger that... It wasn't before but it's a good idea anyways since I don't ever run it without the truck on.

    Is it just for that reason or do those relays leech power?

    @3378jakesr5 any intel on the best under dash place to get an ignition on 12v source for the switch?

    Fuse or wire to save me some digging. :)

    There are a couple fuses in the panel at the drivers knee that are keyed. I can't remember their names off hand but I used one in the past with an add-a-fuse. EDIT: if you don't find it before then, I can check at lunch.

    They leech power like a mofo. I left mine on for 2 days without driving and it killed both batterys.

    So...I experimented with my shipping woes... Shipping to a p.o. box takes forever, so I shipped a phone case to the post office street address with my p.o. box number on it.

    It got to the post office yesterday...the same one it It's supposed to be delivered to, went out for delivery all day and ended up undeliverable. I told them to try and redeliver it today. Hopefully they figure it out, it did arrive quickly.

    Probably a long shot, but if anyone needs an LG G3 phone battery, I have a few new ones.

    After Assurion sent me three dud "refurbished" phones they sent me a G4 that seems to be working great.

    I'll looking at yours, and others... and they all seem to hang down in the line of view.

    I really want something tucked up behind the rear view mirror.

    Is yours hardwired also?
