Hello,
I'm trying to install an mono amp to run my 10" Rockford P3. I've installed tons of systems in the past, but this is my first using a line out converter. I just wanted to verify I've tapped into the right wires, because my amp isn't turning on. I've verified that I have power using a volt meter, so I'm thinking I'm having a problem with the remote amp signal wire.
For the speakers, I tapped into the rear speakers. I have 4 adapters in the back of the headunit (08 scion tc). There was 1 adapter with 5 wires... I'm sure I have this part right... my only concern was there was 2 white wires. I tapped into the thicker gauge wire (it matched the rest of the speaker wires).
To ground the scosche adapter, I tapped into the BROWN wire on the harness next to the rear speakers. For the remote amp turn on, I tapped into the gray wire in the same harness (ACC I believe?) Do these sound right?
Also, does anyone know which wire controls the stock sub in the 08 tcs? I'd like to disconnect it once I get my new amp up & running.
I'm pulling my hair out trying to figure where the problem is!! :threat:
