Feniex Cannon Idea & Help ('12 Charger)

[slash9dotnet]

I just ordered a pair of red/amber Feniex Cannons and I'll be adding them to my reverse light housings on my '12 Dodge Charger. I'm trying to think of a useful way to take advantage of the 3 different modes... Or at least 2 of them - Here's an idea I came up with:

I'd like to have a fairly aggressive warning pattern while responding but when I put the car in park, switch to a slower pattern. Clearly I'd have to find a way to get some kind of signal to make them switch but does anybody know of how I could go about doing that? The majority of the fuses, etc., are in the trunk of the Charger so that may be a bit of an advantage.

Any upfitters that have experience with Chargers have any knowledge?

Thanks!

You would just put whatever pattern on a mode that overrides the other.

I understand that - I'm just curious as to where to get the power for the slower/2nd mode when the shifter goes into Park.

Set up a relay to supply power triggered by the Park signal.

Sounds logical. Any clue as to where a park signal wire would be located or what wire would share the same characteristics?

what he said. the trigger wire will be where the console is at. I'd have to look at the upfitters guide to tell you which one but just used it on a 2015 charger.

That would be awesome. I wasn't actually sure that there was a wire just for a Park signal. And as long as the colors were same with the '15+ as the '11-'14, I'll be golden.

there not the same. however looking back its going to be the 24-way connector. the p/n switch sense will either be brown w/ yellow stripe or brown w/ tan stripe. find wire that matches description. take multimeter, black to ground and red to the wire. with vehicle in run position you should receive a positive reading. place car in drive and reading should drop to 0. if you find thay, then that's the wire you want.

the 2 colors I just mentioned are for 11-14 year model.
