Boat Stereo
Where does the accessory wire for a stereo on a boat connect to?
Hello, I am installing a stereo system on my boat but when I removed the old stereo it only had a power and ground. Where can I connect the accessory wire? Boats don't have an ignition ACC...I have been told I can connect both 12v and 12vACC to the same power but I don't want to have to reset all of the presets, clock, etc..every time I power it off. I apologize in advance if this is a moron question heh. Thanks!
Thank you all for the answers! Very quick response..I will try connecting them to the same 12v power and hopefully will remember to turn it off everytime..again thanks
Yes you can hook it up to the battery and try to remember turning it off OR remove the ignition switch and hook it to the ACC or ON position.
Easier than it sounds if you're putting the radio near the steering like a car.
