Hello,
when I bought my civic (some time ago now!) it had a nokia hands free kit fitted (brodit holder/charger). I've always had an iphone since owning the car so never used it (besides in an ex with built in hands free!). It used to beep when starting the engine etc so I unplugged the little nokia/brodit control box that was wedged under the glovebox compartment. I've since lost this little box and was a little bored today and wondered if I could use the remaining wires to power a USB extension lead so I've got a permanent iphone charger?
I just need a bit of help with the wires, I've attached pictures.
I understand I need 5v for the usb extension lead.. I've got a multimeter (although I can't remember how to use it..
)
can someone identify what all these wires are?! one looks like the power lead for the box I removed but I dont know what voltage it is as I could potentially just split that and wire my blue usb extension to it?
thanks
