Hello everyone!
A quick question for those who could help me, sorry if I'm not in the right section of the forum but it was the only one I saw that somewhat corresponded.
As I said in the title, I need to tap into the power supply of my car radio to get 12v but I'm not an expert in this matter..
I found the diagram; what do you think?
Detail of part A of the connector
Thanks for the help! ;)

Hello,
I would tend to say on sheet number 12, because it's a permanent +.
But be careful, depending on what you want to connect to it, as it's not always good to tap into an existing power supply.
See you later

Hello,
Same answer for the 12 but I think we should install a Fuse Holder.

Hello everyone!
I quote
"It’s actually a small FM transmitter box to be connected to the car radio’s antenna with an auxiliary input."
Do you have the reference or link for this box?
Connecting to the antenna and FM transmitter, given the appearance, it doesn’t look like an FM transmitter and I don’t understand the story about connecting to the antenna.
In the case of false or incorrect vocabulary, who knows... only the reference of this box and the purpose you want will tell us.

Hello,
It's indeed an auxiliary input, and the connection is also made to the antenna.
It's this kind:
So, I was told on another forum that my diagram was not the one for my vehicle, but I was sure about it... and I can't find any others, so thanks anyway to those who wanted to help me and answered my question simply.

Hello
personally, I advise against the most direct approach; it is better to go through more contact in order to avoid battery drainage issues

Since you're not sure about your schematics...
Which model do you have, the one at the top or the one at the bottom?
--------------
Knowing that your data connections would correspond to the one at the top.
If that's the case, you should make a temporary connection of your power supply to pin 11 connector A
Just pinch the wire and test:
> power on, case powered
> power off, case not powered
And see if this doesn't interfere with normal operation
(this checks if the power supply is sufficient for the case as well)
---------------------------
Aside from that
Where did you buy this case?
How much?
(personally interested)

Hi
There are these types of transmitters that are really good, and there's no need to plug into your car radio; they work almost entirely via Bluetooth, USB, phone, and FM.

Just a quick correction on my link in message 13, which doesn't provide the correct products/prices.
Here’s a good link to show Bluetooth receivers with jack (RCA)
https://www.amazon.fr/recepteur-bluetooth-jack/s?k=recepteur+bluetooth+jack
Same goes for often USB charging or other, be careful when purchasing according to... and jack or RCA for sound.
For 10 to 20 euros, you won’t need any wires, hands-free, playback from a USB stick or SD for some...

yes, it's off to a bad start ...
We want to know the voltage in volts.
1 wire from the multimeter to ground (the black)
1 wire to one of your outlets that we want to measure
and set it up like this
This will display about 12 volts when there is power on one wire and 0 volts if there is none.

Thank you! In fact, I was afraid to connect it and blow fuses..
So
Power off on the orange wire 10.5v
Gray wire 12.2v (only) with the power on
And yellow/green wire 0
So I need to connect to the gray wire for the positive of my box and to the yellow/green wire for the ground if I understand correctly
Thanks for the help anyway, I really appreciate it!

It's actually a small FM transmitter box to connect to the antenna of the set with an auxiliary input.
