Switched live without ignition ON but the vehicle is unlocked
Posted: Mon Nov 20, 2023 5:48 pm
I am using a phone holder in my Caddy 1.6 2009 which has automatic locking and rotating with wireless charging. I attached it to ignition switched source in the fuse box.
When I turn on the ignition, the phone holder is powered and opens the clamping arms. After that I could put my phone into the holder and it closes the arms automatically. Sometimes it takes time, it would be more convenient if it opens those when I open my car by key and the interior lights turn on.
I checked the wiring diagram and I did not find this kind of switched power which is switched on before ignition ON but it is disconnected from the battery after I lock the car.
Judging by the Touareg electronic system J689 (Terminal 30) is responsible for this behavior. But I did not find any way to have a direct, fixed connections to the switch live, it is the integrated part of J519.
Do you have any infos, idea regarding to this? I was thinking about it and maybe I could use fixed light power feeding a relay and swich direct power from the battery.
