Default LC-1 arrived...how did you all mount it, hardwire it in?

First off, thanks to KB for an effortless transaction.

Secondly, how did you all mount your LC-1's? Did you mount the main harness to the frame rail? Where did you tap 12v key on power source? And where did you run the harness up into the cab? Thanks

We zip tied mine to what looked like the gear selector cable by the frame, and ran the wires through the grommet underneath the drivers side front floor where the gear selector cable passes through the floor. Running switched power off of windshield wiper fuse I believe.

There is a brown wire and yellow wire. The brown is for a gauge if you have one, and the yellow is for whatever else (efilive). You'll need to calibrate the LC1 for efilive, so make sure your laptop has a serial port, or buy a USB to Serial adapter, but make sure it is one that will work.

Read the instructions before you even attempt to do anything

Im really impressed with the quality of the wiring BTW. I've never felt stereo inputs snap in so positively before.

Hmmmmm, then you have a problem.... You really need to program the wideband, i bought a serial to USB adapter, which took forever to get to work, then my laptop crashed and i tried installing it again and i could not get it to work... But i did get it to work once awhile ago... Search the Innovative (lc-1) forum on the serial to usb adapter they recomend...
