Power Studs
On the passenger side of the dash are
power studs for a CB hook-up. These studs
are standard equipment. For a proper hook-
up, use fork type connectors on the wires
or use “banana” plugs.
CAUTION
If stripped wire ends are used, make
sure there are no wire strands that can
bridge between the studs.
The red stud is the positive terminal and
the black stud is the ground terminal.
Power from the studs must not exceed a
10 amp draw. Before connecting any elec-
trical accessory, make sure it is made for
12 V operation.
