I'd like to mount my HomeLink unit inside my center console. For power, can I tap into the cig lighter and if so, which wires? I'd rather do this than mount in the map light since I have the security system...too crowded.
Yeah, mine has plastic in the center under the security piece I would have to grind down. I decided it was too much work which means I am too lazy to grind and fab it up
The one in the 2014 visor i bought is the car2u, but most people would be lost if I said that.
This is from the 2013-14 Mustang Factory Service Manual
Universal Transmitter
Functional Components
The only functional component of the unversal transmitter system is the universal transmitter, which is part of the LH sun visor.
System Operation
The universal transmitter uses the Lear Car2U® System. It consists of 3 buttons, each with its own indicator lamp. The universal transmitter is an integral part of the LH sun visor and provides a convenient way to substitute up to 3 hand-held transmitters with a single built-in device. The universal transmitter can learn the radio frequency codes of most current transmitters. The universal transmitter:
- operates garage doors, gates and home/office lighting and security systems.
- learns and transmits the radio frequency of up to 3 hand-held transmitters from any of the systems mentioned above.
- is powered by the vehicle battery and charging system.
