No I never even started the car. I had it wired on the same 12v, ign, gnd from my cd player. As soon as I plugged them in, I turned them on just to test, and the monitor was dead. I double checked my wiring, and everything was fine. My cd player was playing, so I started checking everything with my multi-meter, and it all checked out fine. Don't really know what happen, worked perfectly when I was testing it with my 12v battery I removed from my jet ski for the winter, and my laptop. Plus they say it's good from 11v to 24v on there specs. But yeah I never even started my car.
