I recently purchased a homelink module from a salvage yard for my 97 Disco. I quickly realized that my Disco was not pre-wired for the homelink system. Does anyone know how to hook one of these thinks up? |

you can just attach a 9v battery to the wires and it will work, or just run some new wires up there fromt the fuse box. All it needs is a power source. |

I think the '97 is like my '96. The power comes from around the dome light. That way it can be used even when the key is off. |

yeah before you do a homemade hack job make SURE it isn't pre-wired. The little plug is probablly stuck up behind the headliner somewhere, pull the dome light and you will be able to see/feel around up there easier. |
