1. Route the CABLE along the
frame of the vehicle. Use the
ZIP-TIES to secure the cable.
Avoid routing near:
-Hot surfaces such as exhaust
components.
-Moving parts such as suspen-
sion.
2. Locate an existing point of
entry into the vehicle interior
along the fire wall.
3. Route the CABLE through
the fire wall and into the cab.

1A. Route the RCA cable up
the side of the driver side dash,
and plug it into the CTS device.
(NOTE: If you own a dash
pod, you may need to use the
right angle adapter for a lower
profile fit. See step 1B)
1B. Plug the RIGHT ANGLE
ADAPTER into the back of the
CTS, then the cable into the
adapter. This will allow the
connector to sit tight against the
inside of the pod adapter and
eliminate interference with your
dash.

2. Next, route the GROUND
lug to any grounded connection
and fasten in place using exist-
ing hardware.
3. Route the POWER connec-
tion to your fuse box. (Your
fuse box may be under the hood
of your vehicle)
4. In your fuse box, locate a 10
amp fuse that is powered only
when your key is turned on.
This information can be found
in your vehicle’s user manual.
(CAUTION: Do not connect to
a Fuse location that has con-
stantly supplied power. Doing
so will drain your battery.)
5. Remove the fuse, turn your
key on, and determine which
side of the fuse location is sup-
plied with power (known as the
“Hot” side). A voltage meter or
test light may be used.
6. Turn the key off. Retest the
fuse location to make sure the
power was shut off when you
turned your key off.
7. Locate the proper 10 amp
FUSE ADAPTER provided in
your kit. The leg with the wire
soldered to it needs to be placed
in the “HOT” side of the fuse
location (determined in step 6).
8. Plug the POWER connector
into the FUSE ADAPTER con-
nector.
9. Plug the RCA connector into
the backside of your CTS.
