Trying to hook up an AMP with a Kicker L7 Sub to replace my Bose sub. I see two orange wire from the amp which one is the remote? and which wires is the speaker wire going to the Sub? Also while messing with these wire my radio shut off and i check all the fuse in the bay and driver side all are good. is their a fuse behind the radio? Tia

 

Im a little confused on your setup.. From what you saying it sounds like your trying to hook up the factory amp to a kicker L7.. Not to sure what the factory amp power rating is but im 100% percent sure it wont power a Kicker L7 to its optimal power ratings.. The only way your radio would be shutting off from the sub is if you had accidentally had the amp sending signals to the head unit or you blew a fuse.. TBH i need more information to help you out.. Check Grounds!

What amp are you using?

 

I have a Kicker 600.1 amp and one 12 L7. I will be removing the stock amp but dont know which is the Remote wire for the amp, also i need to know which wire i need to hook up to my RCA jack. you right about the blew fuse but i cant seem to find any blew fuse in the bay or driver side panel unless there is on behind the radio. Thanks

There is no fuse behind the radio.

 

Anyone with pic on how to splice into RCA? TIA

 

just run the remote to the fuse box. for rcas take the converter hook it to speaker wire like the directions say.,

 

Hack into the speaker wires in the trunk for RCA jack.

Thanks for the last link just what i needed. Now i need to get my Radio to power on, Check all fuses and all is good. Is there any else i can try to get it to power on?

 

to splice to RCA you may need some Line Out Converters, LOCs

 

Are you getting 12 or more Volts at the cable going to the amp from the battery?
Are you getting 12 or more volts at the remote wire coming from the head unit when turned on, and 0 when turned off?
Check ground by checking continuity.
