[QUOTE="wfooshee, post: 1326081, member: 6354"] The red wire should run to the hot brake light wire. In an automotive installation they have you put the brake light wire on the hot side of the brake light switch, and the purple wire on the switched side. The reason is that if the fuse for the brake lights is blown, the unit won't power up as a fail-safe. If you power it somewhere else and the fuse for the brake lights is blown, the unit never sees the brake lights and will not disengage when you expect it to. Put the red wire on any wire supplied by the Signal System fuse. Yes, the cruise control works with [I]any[/I] 12V source on that wire, switched or not, but if it's not on the brake light hot wire you could find it not disengaging with the brakes because the brake lights have no juice and the purple wire [I]never[/I] gets volts.
