Need help with my 07 equinox
 

Hi my name is Jason and I need help with my 07 equinox. I'm trying to install after market heated seats. I have the seats installed and the wire ran. I have the wire ran into the center console area where the radio is. I know that there isn't an ignition/ACC wire to the radio. I'm sure there is an acc wire on the power Window harness I just don't know what color it is. I don't have enough tools to check which one it would be either. Could someone please tell me what color wire I need to find. I've looked all over the Internet and to no avail. Please someone help.

The radio does have a wire that turns on the 12 volts whenever the key is in the on position. The radio also has a wire that is hot all the time. This is so that the radio does not lose it's memory. I would suggest you find an empty spot in the fuse box that is also on when the ignition is on. 2 would be better, 1 for each seat. There probably is somewhere in the fuse box a spot designated for heated seat. These are better options than wiring it in with the radio. A heating element especially 2 of them draws a lot of amps and if you put it into another circuit you could be blowing fuses. Also whichever way you do it, put an on/off switch for each seat in the circuit so that the heated seats will not be on all the time you are driving.

The heated seat kit did come with an on/off switch which is installed. The only wire that I have wired into the radio is the ground, as for the fused red wire I wired that into the fuse box via the onstar which my car does not have, I'm just having a hard time finding an ACC wire, if there is a "hot all the time wire" going to the stereo, which one is it?
