Volt meter hook up

Post by mikelens »



I want to add a volt meter to my '90 GL 1500. I got one off eBay. It's a 3 wire hook up. I plan on connecting the ground & sensing wire directly to the battery terminals. My question is the third wire; need to connect it to a wire that is Hot only when the key is ON. Is there a terminal in the fuse box I can use or is there an easily accessible wire I can tap into? Thanks.

The very top in fuse panel there are two accessory screws. Any one will be good.
