And now you are cutting wires and experimenting but now you are surprised it doesn't work? Don't be surprised when you do serious damage to other components in the car. Chock it up top a lesson learned. Your car is obviously not wired for this circuit. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.
