Hey guys,, im looking for some information regarding where to attach a remote turn-on wire for a amp. I have pulled all the moldings and ran my wires from the trunk to basically right near the pedels and im now wondering where to attach this wire. Someone told me to attach it to the accessory fuse box but im not sure where that is ect... any help is appericiated ,, thanks

 

the fuse box should be at the side of the dash you can only see it when the driver side door is open and you will need a test light to find out which 1 lights up when you turn the key

 

the fuse box should be at the side of the dash you can only see it when the driver side door is open and you will need a test light to find out which 1 lights up when the key is on and once the key is off it shouild not light up then that will be your remote but will be best to wire remote wire behind the deck

 

attach it to any line that is 12V switched (hot when the car is on)

tap into a cigarette lighter, radio, wipers, whatever...

 

if you don't want to splice wires then just buy an 'add a circuit' and put it in. it's a nifty little device that will allow you to tap an accessory fuse for putting in extra power wires. if you do a search i think there are photos of the actual product. i'm pretty sure you can find it at most autoplaces.

Why didn't you just hook it up to the sub amp's remote turn-on wire behind the rear seat? That's what I did. I forgot what color it was though as it has been so long but if you have a Helm's manual or a test light, it will be easy to find.

 

Open the driver door and on the side of the dashboard, you will see a panel. Pop it open and there's a fuse box in there. The diagram is on labeled on the other side of the panel cover; locate fuse number 12 for the the wipers, which is the bottom one in the left column (only two fuses in the left column).

You can use that. That's where I hooked up my V1 hardwire kit.

 

the back side of the same drivers side panel has 4 blank openings where all you need is a female spade conecotr, 1 is powered by the light swithch (when on) 2 (cant remember if i have this reversed) are accessory turn on, 1 is constant.

 

I'm pretty sure its Orange

 

I tapped into the 12 volt plug in the armrest for mine. Just remove the center console and splice it in. No noise on my dvd.

 

omg...common guys...the romote turn on wire is the blue wire were u connect the vehicle harness to ur head unit harness. buh if u have the stock cd player in there then iuno wat to think.

 

we are all talking about teh oem system which has no remote turn on

 

The remote power wire in the stock amp (even when the wire was tapped without the amp connected) had insufficient voltage to kick the relay in my amp...had to tap an ACC wire in the driver's fuse box. Down side is since the amp is always on, you'll hear a thump each time you turn the head unit on or off.

 

conect it to the back side of the fuse panel, there is an accessory turn on on the back side

 

Yes there is, I tapped into the one going into the stock amp. and it turns on my Orion amp. everytime I turn on the stereo.

 

we are talking the aftermarket blue one. yes there is a turn on lead though, and there is also one behind teh rear seat
