Re: CD changer

[Christopher Inverarity <inver1@pacbell.net>]

Andrew,
I hooked up my own CD changer when I go my GLX as well. Sounds like you may
have forgotten to hook up a constant (no-switched) 12V power source. You'll
need to get the power from the fuse block or the battery. I used the fuse
block as getting through the fire wall is no picnic.
good luck,
Chris
