Working temperature: -40c - +85c

Dimensions: 63 x 29 x 75 mm

Max consumption: <14 m
does this help,

[darrenfos]

when you said 1 amp a thought you were taking the mick, so 1 amp that's ok i just need a bit of help i dont know the ins and out's of electrics that's why i am a bit confused

[05omegav6]

That is the maximum I can recommend given the total lack of meaningful information supplied with the unit

[darrenfos]

will it work with a 1 amp fuse.

[darrenfos]

I think i may have cracked it. On the instruction pics, its got a solder iron pic with rear light, then says switch button on, then it has a pic of stick in reverse sounds odd for front sensors but maybe its for street parking,  so i should wire into reverse wire maybe.

With the greatest respect ....  you obviously haven't got a clue what you are doing ... may I suggest you get someone who actually KNOWS how to do car wiring to do it for you

The way you are going I see a big red vehicle full of water arriving at your car with blue lights flashing and men with fancy coats on ... and its NOT a mobile disco ......

I only ask for advice. As this website is for help after reading the instructions the only conclution is to wire the + in to reverse. I think it sounds odd but if your paralel parking it makes sence they would be on at front. Please excuse any spelling mistakes, and those who have helped me i thank you.

If you feed the sensors with a connection to the reverse lights, then the sensors are just going to be reverse sensors ....... no way on earth will they turn on when going forwards. As to whether  1 amp fuse will work .... who knows? What Jamie and others are saying is that the info you've given ie what's in the instructions doesn't give enough/correct information. Current is measured in Amps and small current in milliAmps (thousandths of Amps) Best guess is that <14m should actually read <14mA in which case, the 1 amp fuse would be sufficient. But you'll still need to look out the front window when you're parallel parking .... unless you just use a separate on/off switch to switch BOTH sensors.

So with a 1 amp fuse in line to cig lighter will be fine thats all i was asking all along. the switch is all built in there is only 2 wires a red and black. Thankyou

[darrenfos]

Does any of this make sence to you +15/54, and also A<30mA typ

Probably. But as said, the info you've been given isn't enough to tell you definitely one way or t'other.

None  As above, the instructions supplied just don't give enough info

[darrenfos]

That +15/54 has got parkmaster next to it coming off a meter on the leaflet

Is it a model number?
