accessory power

[northguy]

Where can you get a keyed power source to run a relay for after market light bar? Is there a point in the fuse box?

[RobZ]

Good question, I am planning on installing a SiriusXM stratus 7 receiver and was wondering the same thing.

I found a place to tap into auxiliary 12VDC. Under the drivers side dash there is an extra connector X260. It has a blank mating connector pugged into it. I will be going to GM to see if I can get the pins.

In the GM up-fitters website you can download the breakout but the Black wire on 1 is ground and the Violet/Yellow wire on 6 is the accessory power. It is a 14 pin plug.

Thanks for the info. Going to use this tomorrow to hook up some additional USB Charging Ports.

Keep me posted on this. I would like to set up an additional USB charging port and keep it clean like a factory install. If you can post a write up or PM how you did it I would really appreciate it.

Yes, please do a write up.

Did GM sell you the connector pins? If not where did you find them? Thanks 

[RobZ]

I have them on order from GMpartsdirect.com

Have not received them yet. Today I will swap the 50 amp fuse (F27/F28) in the passenger side fuse box so the accessory power will be tied to the retained accessory power and will try tapping into the extra pin near the F28.

[Rckstr7]

Do you know what the part number is off of gmpartsdirect? Thank you. 

[RobZ]

Part number is listed in the attached word document. Two different pin sizes. Also swapping the fuse did not change the extra pin to RAP. So I wired the sirius power cord to the cigar lighter wires

If I am reading the word file right the terminals are 13575818 and 13575824? Just confirming because gmpartsdirect.com lists those numbers as "wire" and a little over $6 each.

[RobZ]

Yes, they are the pin crimped to a 6" piece of wire with a butt connector, not cheap

Does anyone know what fuse the violet/yellow wire is on?? I found the x260 connector yesterday, but pin 6 is not hot when the truck is running. I'm thinking it's a blown fuse.
