hi mate,

you should have 3 wires to power the amp.

red live for battery
black earth for somewhere grounded in boot
blue wire remote which connects to the back of your stereo headunit.

when all connected the amp should come on and off the same time as your stereo. ;)

If your having problems, might be the grounding point, are you connecting it to painted metal? If so it's best to sand it down to bare metal.

If Pacman had affected us as kids we'd be running around in dark rooms, munching pills and listening to repetitive music.

With the remote lead you can connect it to the back of the headunit on the blue remote lead you mentioned, or the yellow wire (ignition)

its pretty simple,there should be a small blue wire in the rear of the stereo,extend this with wire to the amp and it should fire up,the remote lead sends a 5v live down the remote lead to tell the amp that it has a source,which it should then turn on and power up

TEAM-P FTW!!!!!

what JP said, but quality of earth will be a major factor


I might get a rover tuner to tune my gt40 turbo on my left testicle to run 400000 bhp lol
