There will be 1 connection that has 12v or power. Connect your power lead from the battery to this terminal.
There will be 1 connector that has GND, GRND. Connect this wire to the body of your car in your boot, sand down area first clean of paint and dust to bare metal. Easy place is your seatbelt harness under your rear seats.
Then there will be 1 connector saying RMT which is your remote wire. This wire connects behind your head unit and then to the RMT connector on the amp. The remote wire turns power on to your amp on when ignition is turned on. The amp will turn off when ignition turned off. The same way your head unit turns on and off.
Hope this helps, If you cant find your RMT connection, Please state make and model of amp and I will locate it for you.
To wire correctly, I have the same xplod amp in my car.
Phono leads connect to the output terminals on the back of your head unit, Then connect to the input terminals on your amp.
The remote wire connects to the amp remote wire behind your head unit (if don't have a wire labeled amp behind the head unit then it usually a blue and white wire).
The power lead from your battery connects to the 12v or PWR terminal on your amp.
Then the Ground wire connects to a rust, dust and paint free area on your car (bolted down), Try behind your rear seats and find a bolt already there. This wire then connects to the GRND terminal on your amp.
hi, u can connect only the amp power to remote wire. can't connect the antenna. because remote wire does not have that much current to drive the motorized antenna. ok
yes there will be a blue wire and maybe a blue with white wire one will give 12volt the whole time the radio is on, the other wire will give 12 volts for 10sec
The remote wire is supposed to be connected to the remote output on the back of the head unit that is feeding the amp. Without the remote wire hook up the amp will not turn on. Reason for this is, the Head Unit tells the AMP to turn on, without the remote connected the AMP is going to do nothing, find the remote switch wire on the back of your Head Unit and run the wire to the remote input on the AMP.
The remote wire from the amp is connected to a blue wire behind your head unit. This is a power antenna activation wire; it's only active when the tuner is selected. Switch the remote wire to a blue/white wire at the head unit.
The remote turn-on wire from your amplifier is connected to a blue wire behind the head unit. That's a power antenna activation wire, so the amp only turns on when the tuner is on. Switch it to a blue/white wire from the head unit instead; that should be the amp remote turn-on output.
