pin-out for remote hook-up

IC6 · 01-06-2007, 10:51 PM

does anyone know which factory color pin-out (non-bose, c6) is the ignition power source, so i can tap in for my remote wire for my amp.

There's not a switched power wire in the radio harness. The radio is turned on & off by the car via the serial data bus (that's how RAP works) so the +12 you'd find in the harness is always hot.

I ran a wire down into the passenger footwell and tapped into a fuse there. I used the wiper circuit, works like a charm. You can either just put a wire on the fuse or grab an add-a-circuit at a parts store and it it in that way.

i tapped into the wiper circuit like you said, but the amp stays on.

. is there another fuse that is switched power?

u sure u hooked it up right cause the whipers should shut off with the car meaning the amp will... otherwise get a voltmeter and start checkin other fuses

thanks.. thats what i'll do.. maybe i hooked it up wrong before.

Sorry, didn't see your second post...

I'm sure I used wiper and it's not tied into RAP, shuts off soon as I press the ignition button. As suggested, double-check your wiring.

I used the wiper circuit just like komoman and it works perfect. Found the add-a-circuit at autozone.

i tapped into the wrong circuit, found the wiper fuse, works great... thanks again!

just need a c6 front or rear emblem to finish the look of my setup, came out really nice... other than ebay ($39 --

) anyone know of a cheaper place?
