Installation Procedure/Making Connections
The FiX™ 86 uses removable plugs for making power and signal input
connections. Receptacles in each plug accept up to 16 AWG wire. To attach
wires to the plug, remove the plug from the FiX™ 86 and use a small flathead
screwdriver to back out the set screws. Strip 1/4 inch (6 mm) of insulation from
the end of each wire and insert the bare wire into the receptacle, seating it firmly
so that no wire is exposed. While holding each wire in place, tighten the set
screw firmly, taking care not to strip the head of the screw.
Use caution to ensure correct polarity and wire placement of the Power and
OEM Input connections.
Make sure to observe proper orientation when inserting each plug into
the FiX™ 86. Each plug is keyed to fit in one direction only. When inserted
correctly, the set screws should be facing down.
Use good quality crimp connectors (or solder with heat shrink tubing) when
making connections to a vehicle’s electrical system. Protect all wires from sharp
edges (metal dash frame, firewall, etc.) by carefully routing and securing them,
using grommets and loom where appropriate. Failure to do so may result in a
dangerous short circuit.
