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.

2006 Buick Rendezvous cd and xm not working but radio works fine

depends on what fuse. the fuse on the back of the stereo or the fuse in the fuse box? if the one in the fuse box it should show you on the cover that you opened to get into the box. it should say stereo. now if your looking for the one on the back of the stereo you will have to take the stereo out and on the backside you will find a fuse or two. good luck

When i have the stereo on radio my amp/subs work fine, but as soon as i switch the mode to USB ( built in ipod connector) it cuts out the power to the amp/subs. It only works on tuner mode (radio) why?

use the blue/white wire (amplifier remote turn on) instead of the blue wire (power antenna remote turn on) to turn your amp on. the power antenna wire shuts off when leaving tuner mode.

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.
