I tapped into the cdc for power as per the diy thread on this board. Which wires am I supposed to tap into?
Dension wise everything works it just keeps blowing a fuse and my passenger window won't work and neither front door locks.
Thanks for the help!

Can I just use the battery to power my dension? Or will that drain the battery since it will always be on? It has an led so I don't think itd use too much power when off

There are only 2 wires for power to tap from CDC, one in use for sure which is the positive (+) and you can either also tap the negative (-) wire that paired together or use the body for ground.
To test if your problem related to GW500 install, un-hook the power connector plastic plug (I think it's black) that power the GW500 by doing so you disable the GW500 if your problem persist then it's not GW500 related.

Took a pic of how it was wired up. Any1 know if this is correct? I also completely unplugged the dension from the car so I'll wait till monday to hear back from the dealer.
