That will refer to a circuit that comes on when you turn the key, like the
power for the radio.

There is reference to connecting the 'blue' wire to the "IGNS line" to

vehicles to not come with an IGNS connection.

Of course, I realize that my diesel doesn't use 'ignition' per se, but
none the
less wonder if this IGNS connection refers to something else, and I just
might
have it.

Can anyone help? Thanks

The older Jeeps had a plug in on the fuse panel with that label for
aftermarket stereos or anything that need 'key on' power.

You might have a slot with that name.

Did you look on the fuse panel for a place to plug in a spade connector
labeled 'igns'?

Where are you getting the power for the unit from? Is is a full time 12
volts or switched? If it is switched, then you can just tag the wire to
the power.

I can't think of ever seeing a vehicle that did NOT turn the radio etc. on
before actually starting the engine.

This is from another Nokia car kit manual:

"Ignition-Sensing" must be connected to either of the following:
-the ignition-sense wire/terminal in the fuse box
-the sound system position-sensing terminal/wire located behind the sound
system.

If anyone can pinpoint either of these locations, it would be appreciated.

I recommend putting a voltmeter or test light on likely fuse box terminals.
Then see whether key-on key-off makes it light up and go out.
