KOER Power source?

Its been years since I have seen information on these boards related to what I'm looking for and searches aren't bringing anything up quickly and accurately.

I'm wanting to set a few gauges and a aux water pump to only come on in the Run position only. First thought is the fuel pump relay, but I'm not sure that's the best route let alone the closest route.



Also, would absolutely love the idea of setting my radio up so that it can turn off with the GEM module turning off the power window relay. What I mean is theres like 10 minutes after turning the key off, I can still roll windows up and down (IF the doors stay closed), I want my radio to continue to play until I open the door or the time runs out. I adore this feature in the 06 Milan I have...


Thanks in advance, I hope I'm clear in what I'm wanting to do and I apologize for my years long hiatus.

Normally the ignition switch supplies power in the Run position or Accessory position to the radio.
If you connect fuse protected high resistance low current relay to the window circuit and use it's SPST contacts to feed power to the radio from ahead of the ignition switch, it should meet the timing application you desire without any ill effects.
The GEM will provide the timing without affecting the GEM operation.
Be sure you get the radio feed only and not include other circuits.
Good luck.
