I'm installing a new radio and cleaning up the wiring.

I'm using the 'switched power' lead from the radio wiring harnes. Can I tap this wire for my CB SW Power and my LCD monintor too?

 

on which vehicle? the scion or 4runner? also what kind of cb? some have a higher current draw than others, the lcd screen shoulnt need much so i say that one will be safe to tap the switched power on either vehicle.

 

it's for the 4runner. The CB is from Radio Shack I don't remember the model#.

 

Ok well i went to radio shacks site and saw that it would only require 1.5amps (radio shack brand unit) you should be fine with the switched power at the radio. BTW the switched power wire at the radio is GRAY and is protected by a 7.5amp fuse and is labeled "RADIO" at the drivers side kick panel if you run into any issues
