here u go says u have a blue wire thats ur antena wire and ur remote wire is blue with white trace, thats wat ur going 2 use, that should run straight 2 ur amp 2 switch it on is that wat uve done?

the pdf even shows u how 2 wire up ur set up easy as man hope this helps.

The other problem i have is that there is no remote wire on the loom adaptor, i have atached it to the ignition red wire on the loom with no luck, so it wont switch the amp, which works fine.

kosta.

now u say this also. The ISO plug may have a spare wire u can use but not needed as the remote wire can b run seperate straight from the unit 2 the amp. make sure u got ur batt+ yellow wire hooked up 2 constant 12V and ur red ACC+ wire hooked up 2 ur igniton.

if your connecting the amp to the head units power it will draw too much current. this will blow the fuse. use an accesory power supply to switch the amp if the stereo doesnt have a switch wire.

Fixed, was getting voltage drop because the cable was getting to hot in the spot that it was in, sorted the power cable out, and everything is fixed thanks guys

Spoke to a car audio guy, he said where it was running across the front of the car past the radiator, it messes with the resistance of the cable, so I made hole on the brake.booster firewall grommet, ran new 2g cable and it fine
