Default airdog question

I have my airdog hooked in with my radio fuse and it runs every time my key is on. I thought they just primed then shut off. Do I have it hooked up right or no.

All its doing it energizing a relay, so as long as you dont have some hardcore aftermarket head unit youll be fine

yep the only thing is if you turn the key to the acc to just have the radio on while u sit there the pump will run as well. If thats a problem, you can use a test light to prob the fuse box to find a keyed on only source to put the fuse into
