Well as the title says, I just need to hook up all my Zex nitrous accessories. It would be amazing if there were multiple under the hood and a bunch in the cabin (as I know there are). If you can tell me where and what color coded wire, I would greatly appreciate it.

Also, I need a tach signal wire for my Zex window switch.

Pictures are greatly appreciated!

There are multiple sources available such as the fuse panel, steering column, behind the radio, etc. Off hand though I do not remember the specific colors- it's been over a year since I did any of my install, electric-wise.

As far as a tach signal, my Raptor shift light uses the common wire coming off of the coil closest to the firewall on the passengerside I believe.

Yeah, those are a good idea. I guess in theory I could stripe some 18 gauge wire, crimp it, take the fuse out, stick the crimped wire in, and re-insert the fuse.

I have so many accessories run to the fuse panel that I got fed up with the messy wiring and bought one of these: link. It's made for boats, so pardon the "auto pilot" and "fish finder" labels in the pic... I don't have those mods yet.



I ran power straight to the battery via 10 gauge wire, and grounded it near the stock fuse panel. Now all of my aftermarket accessories go to this second fuse block. This one has 6 terminals, but they also make a version with 12.
