I ran a switched and non switched 12 v bus to behind the center console so I can easily plug anything in I want.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1Original post

Heya folks, I need an in dash and relatively accessible 12 volt constant to vampire ( good ground as well ); any recommendations? I do not want to run to the fuse box and it seems the cigarette lighters, though not switched, are transformed 5 volt dc. Any advice greatly appreciated! SLR-

POST 2Original post

What makes you think that? I've seen no evidence to that effect; quite the contrary.

POST 3Original post

There are two twelve volt sockets per the manual. One in the passenger footwell and one in the center consol.

POST 4Original post

This was presented by Porsche sales, in lieu of the service department being open. Inspired by your response, I ran out to the car and pulled the kick plate to check the interface, and indeed, there is 12 vdc at the plug and I find no transformer circuit in the plug assembly as was proposed. This being the case, I can simply splice, solder and shrink wrap inline to the 12 v accessory interface in the passenger foot well. If anyone has a better proposition for poaching 12 v constant and getting a good ground in the center dash region, I would love to hear them - before I dedicate to solder... THNX! SLR-

POST 5Original post

I think running from the fuse box would be alot easier and quicker. You can get most of the carpeting up around the fuse box with I think 1 screw so running and hiding a line is easy. I ran a switched and non switched 12 v bus to behind the center console so I can easily plug anything in I want.

POST 6Original post

5 volt? Are you thinking about the capacity of that line? If you're not, you should. As I recall, one of those two cigarette lighter sockets was notorious for not being able to power a radar detector without blowing a fuse. Depending on your uses, you might check the amperage available of those circuits and running from the box may provide your highest amps.

POST 8Original post

You can safely run a radar detector, phone, GPS, Bluetooth, or similar low draw charger from any of the 3 12v sockets (footwell, cig lighter or console compartment). I've used each of them many times without any issue.
