January 23, 201312 yr Clock will have continuous. The issue is you need to find a switched ignition wire that stays hot while cranking. Get out a test light and poke the ignition wires while cranking. If it stays lit, there is your source.Clock works except when the key is at OFF.It still has power,only the lighting is not powered when off. It also switches off at crank, but the time delay is not visible.

January 23, 201312 yr How do I make my head unit not shut off every time I start the car?Bypass the fuse box and wire directly to the battery? Not sure if that's a good idea though...It will still most likely happen. Starter uses a bunch of volts and HUs protect themselves. How do I make my head unit not shut off every time I start the car? Bypass the fuse box and wire directly to the battery? Not sure if that's a good idea though... It will still most likely happen. Starter uses a bunch of volts and HUs protect themselves. Good point. Sounds like a waste of time trying to bypass it anyway.The starter has nothing to do with it. It's the way the ignition is wired. The switched lead opens during the cranking cycle.

January 24, 201312 yr Here is a list of celebrities, sponsors, and vendors who have pulled out of the Reed Exhibits Eastern Sports and Outdoors Show in Harrisburg, PA for 2013. The show was set to run from Feb 2-10, 2013 and usually attracted hundreds of thousands of visitors.This however will not be the case this year as they have made an announcement that they will not support our Second Amendment Rights as Hunters, Shooting Sports Enthusiasts, Gun Owner, and AMERICANS ! We at MyNortheastOutdoors.com decided it was time to take a stand, and have enjoyed the support of the following businesses and entities listed below.Vendors Pulled Out (233)Many Not Yet Found / Added2 Million Bullets24/7 Hunting TVAbsaroke-Beartooth OutfittersAlaska’s Ravencroft LodgeAlaskan Outdoors TVAmbush FirearmsAmerican Whitetails of PAAntler InsanityApex TacticalAppalachian Big Game TVArchery TagArrowhead OutdoorsArtistic Visions Wildlife StudioAthens ArcheryAtlantic TacticalAtsko, Inc. / Sno-Seal Inc.Avian X DecoysBackwoods Whitetails OutfittersBad Boy Inc.Bad Dog AccessoriesBanded CallsBangin Redhedz Turkey GearBear ArcheryBeavertail ProductsBig Game ButterBlitz TVBody Guard 360Bohning ArcheryBoulder Basin OutfittersBoondock OutdoorsBow Hunter’s DenBow Life, LLCBramco / Golden Valley EnterprisesBriley OutfittersBuck BombBurt Coyote LumenokC&D OutfittersCabela’sCamo AddictionCampbell CamerasCanCookerCentral Penn Sporting Clays & Game PreserveChaparral Hunting AdventuresCochrane River OutfittersCody Turkey CallsCold Steel KnivesCombative EdgeContinental Divide OutfittersCross Canyon ArmsCutting Edge BulletsDarkwoods BlindDCVRDead RingerDeer and Deer Hunting.comDirect Action Tactical FirearmsDirty Buck Soap and ScentsDirty Dog OutdoorsDomari Nolo Defense ConsultingDominance is Everything Hunting SystemDominator 365Dokken Oakridge KennelsDown N Dirty OutdoorsDrakes Migration NationDriven TVDroptine OutfittersDuckWater BoatsDunn KnivesEastern Chapter Wild Sheep FoundationEastern OutdoorsEaston Bow HuntingExcalibur Crossbow US, IncFarmland Trophies OutfittingFear No EvilField Proven CallsFirearms Industry Consulting GroupFirenockFish Outdoor PropertiesFlatline ProductionsFlyway Custom SalesFoiles Migrators, IncForbes Turkey CallsFOXPRO High Performance Game CallsFull Circle OutdoorsFurtakers TVGhillieSuits.comGhost River Outfitters – AlbertaGoey Hunting CallsGone Wild OutdoorsGoodling RiflesGrand-Safari.com – South Africa/Tanzania/CameroonGut N Tag, LLCHart RiflesH.S.

January 24, 201312 yr From one of the nation's largest hunting and outdoors convention into a glorified flea market. Good job, guys.

January 24, 201312 yr How do I make my head unit not shut off every time I start the car?Bypass the fuse box and wire directly to the battery? Not sure if that's a good idea though...X2 I'm pretty sure it cuts off at start to protect some sort of Under or Over voltage problems. Maybe if you had another battery source or possibly wire it to a cap?

My HU is right to the batt and still cuts out on start up.........Your entire truck is an electrical gremlin. The HU should not shut off unless you're around 10 volts. If you're dropping that low at startup, you need a new battery, or something us wrong with your starter.

Not sure if that's a good idea though...X2 I'm pretty sure it cuts off at start to protect some sort of Under or Over voltage problems. Maybe if you had another battery source or possibly wire it to a cap?. Nope. Real simple guys. Take a test light and hook it up to your HU's power wire. Turn the ignition on, it will light up. Crank the car, it will open that circuit.
January 24, 201312 yr From one of the nation's largest hunting and outdoors convention into a glorified flea market. Good job, guys.The 2nd amendment has nothing to do with hunting, or sports. It is too bad people don't understa d SOPA PIPA and the new one are all the same as what ever lWs the mKe to fuck up the 2nd amendment

January 24, 201312 yr Of course it cuts off when cranking. it's attached to an accessory wire. As already stated the only wire besides constant that remained powered when cranking is an ignition wire.what vehicle is it.
January 24, 201312 yr All electronics have an operating range. Fall below or above that voltage and it won't work.

January 24, 201312 yr Of course it cuts off when cranking. it's attached to an accessory wire. As already stated the only wire besides constant that remained powered when cranking is an ignition wire.what vehicle is it.But not all ignition wires remain closed in the crank position.
January 24, 201312 yr Even some bimmers I installed onIf you have indeed run the power wire straight to the battery, the units were suffering from undervoltage at startup or a switched ground that opened on crank.
January 24, 201312 yr My bad. Too many alarm installs. I keep picturing wires for ignition 1,2, and 3.
January 24, 201312 yr pucking chevy, they don't know how to correctly name an accessory wire. Gotta watch that test light too. I've personally seen a data bus system fry.
January 24, 201312 yr My Gal would shut off if you had it in the reverse accessory but not the forward one. Need to just find which wires are hot when
January 24, 201312 yr And on another note some smart ass at dodge decided to make the rear speakers wires and the airbag wires the same colors. I had an installer snip a pair in the kick panel of a brand new caravan because he was too lazy to pull the rear quarter panel to bypass the amp. Let out every damn airbag on the passenger side. dash, roof, and seats. Brand new dealership vehicle was totaled with 5 mile on it.
