The only ones that I can find that are:

Hot in Run or Start are :

BCM Fuse # 36, 37, 41, 42

Hot in Run / Accy :

BCM fuse # 43 & 44
- These are marked as unused, so you need to check that the fuse supply slot has + VDC in run / accy positions.

Any of these just use an ATM Add-A-Fuse in the slot to get the new circuit for turnign the AMP on / off ( these are max 10A on the added circuit ).

i wound up using #38 in the sjb. i used a mini add a fuse and tapped in there. it's the accessory delay fuse, so the woofer runs just like the regular radio does. it keeps working when the motor is off and then will cut off when you open the doors are the timer runs out.

Thank you for point that out, I completely missed those fuses when searching cell 13 in the EVTM. I saw the hot at all times and moved on, not paying attention to the fuse after the micro controlled relay for the accy delay.

Thanks again
