How do I wire this amp/sub up?

Is this how to wire a remote turn on wire(the blue one) to my headunit???

  • i Have a eclipse cd3100 headunit and i need to wire my remote turn on wire which is the thin blue wire from my amp to my headunit but i dont know where to wire this at i am thinking that i would wire it to my blue wire with a white stripe is what im hearing from people but that wire is hooked together with many other wires in a plastic square holding them together and i dont know if i should take it out of there and crimp it together with my remote turn on wire or what i should do help me out please thanks

  • Answer:

    You do hook up the the blue w/ white striped wire but if it is already hooked to another wire I would recommend splicing into the wire instead of cutting the wire. If your car has a factory amp or power antenna and you cut the wire and only hook it to your amp then you may lose sound to all the other speakers(if your car has a factory amp), of lose your power antenna if equipped. So you need to use a set of wire strippers to slice the insulation off the blue w/ white stripped wire, splice the amp remote wire into it, solder it and tape it good.

yes...u crimp those together....it should have a lil small tag on it sayin that thats remote wire....an if it doesnt its a lil blue wire with a white stripe...just snip it and crimp it...thats all u gotta do man. See...the remote wire is what tells the amp to cut on. There are other quick fixes to get around doing that but thats the correct way to do it. If u have any other questions just message me man.

I a little confused with the question. Look I know that when running that remote wire your suppose to hook it up to the red wire. which is tha accessories wire. so when you car is not all the way on. Its very important to get this right.
