Recommended mounting locations for optimal performance include in-dash mounts where the
LMU-XXX will not be shielded by metal:
• Above gauge cluster
• Above radio (prevent possible interference by routing power harness away from radio wires)
• Above air vents or air duct
• Glove box
• Center console

5.2 CONNECT THE STANDARD WIRING HARNESS
Next, connect the Standard Wiring Harness. This connection provides constant power, ignition and
ground for the LMU-XXX. Additionally, the standard wiring harness can connect optional features,
depending on the LMU-XXX configuration.
Note: If you are using the OBD-II Wiring Harness, skip this section and refer to
Connect the OBD-II
Wiring Harness.
CalAmp recommends power generation from the vehicle’s Ignition Harness.
• Connect the Red Wire from the Standard Wiring Harness to the constant +12VDC in the vehicle.
• Connect the White Wire from the Standard Wiring Harness to True Ignition in the vehicle. Verify
that the wire is powered only with the key in the engine on condition, not the ACC or radio key
position.
• Connect the Black Wire from the Standard Wiring Harness to a metal surface in the vehicle.
