Ice-Link Plus
 

Does anyone know where I should tap into so that I can provide 12 volts, which feeds the power supply for the DSP Converter kit? I was told purple/white = positive and brown = negitive...please help.:tsk:

There is a 3 pin cable that goes to the CD changer (and will need to be connected to the IceLink) that is comprised of a +12V, ground and i-bus lead. Tap the 12V lead (a multimeter test set should quickly tell you which one is 12V)

:xoutpost:

If you cannot find the correct wire, you can use the fuse panel on the pass side - nothing on the bar is switched 12V power. The power draw is very minimal, I wouldn't worry about it.

slightly off topic..
 

Hi Tom,
Do you have a preferrred fitter here in Australia, or is it best to go to the dealers? thanks for all your help re the Icelink.:)

No one I can personally recommend in Australia, but any 12V installer should be able to perform the install for you in under an hour.

I am also interested in your Ice>link plus.I have a 2003 3.0 D with DSP and CD Changer.Would you please PM me some installation info, prices and shipping to POrtugal....

Many thanks
Fernando
