Hello,
I have searched high and low for the "consensus" tap location for switched power on a 2009 Raner (I assume most gen 3 would be fairly similar, if not 2008+). I am planning on adding a Dashcam AND a USB charger for phone on this same tap, with tap kit, like seen below.
I understand that a wire could be run from battery, relay used with switched power, and a new mini-hub for new fuses. BUT... isn't there a good Fuse in the Cab to use?
I found the following Diagram and Key at https://www.autogenius.info/ford-ranger-2009-fuse-box.../
