Aygo 2011 Battery Wiring From Amp

[LunQe]

Hi all.

I've now had at its trial and a lot of research up to get the cord to the Battery pulled through my Aygo.

I have searched the web thin both in Denmark and English sides and there is a guide where to pull the cord down through the accelerator pedal, but the guide must be from the 07-09 year group 'because I have a vintage 10-11' and there are is not a hole under the accelerator pedal more.

If so written with one in here with a gejlet Aygo and he said that it had to be pulled through the steering column perhaps. but there is also completely sealed.

I see no through-holes under the driver seat or passenger seat, unfortunately.

So right now is my hope that some of you know anything that can provide the opportunity to get the wire through.

A side note is that it can hardly feasible to drill a hole for yourself everything is just so densely packed that it must be the very last option.

- I allowed my self to translate this by google translate because im from denmark.

I simply looked up in the passenger footwell and found where lots of wiring was coming through the bulk head. I then slid a plastic rod down the side of those wires and passed my amp cable through that way.

I will take a look at it tomorrow but im not sure my model has that opening.

You will have wiring entering somewhere regardless of the model

You may need to look under the carpet and behind the sound deadening

I couldnt find any hole.

Only a hole for the a/c where the water from the system can run out.

so i might have to make my one hole?

Have you tried the Danish Aygo/C1/107 forum?

Har du prøvet den danske Aygo/C1/107 forum?

You're welcome! Glad to see that you have recieved sound advice on the Danish CityBug forum.

Velkomme du! Rart at se at du får svar på den danske Cityug forum.

I'm going to be fitting a powered subwoofer in my Aygo and plan to get power as I did in our Yaris.

I've had a look at the wiring diagrams and handbook and it appears there is a fuse - 40A HTR - at back of the instrument panel fed from the Battery (via other fuses, but always live). This uses a black cable (on the Yaris it is Blue) to feed the HTR Relay contact, which when made feeds the 7.5A A/C fuse at the side of the instruments. So I'm expecting the HTR Relay is somewhere near the inst. panel and will look to tee into that 40A feed between the fuse and relay, which will save having to get a cable into the engine bay and safely routed to and connected to the Battery.

I haven't done it yet, so can't confirm the above, but will when (if) I do sort it.

Why is there a 40A fuse for the heater? Well there is a con-current thread that mentions heated seats, so I expect that is where that much juice would be made into heat.

Fitted my sub over the weekend. Didn't find the HTR relay but found the fat black cable fed from the 40A HTR fuse and tee'd off it for my main feed.

The current stock radio doesn't have a 'control' output on the power plug (only Gnd, Battery, Ign and Lights) but I found a pin in the 'unused' socket at the top which seemed to do the right sort of things. So I soldered the control wire for the sub to that and it seems to do the job. If it all goes pear-shaped in a while then I suppose I'll just have to buy a better head-unit ... :)
