Question:

Remote Wire?

Where is itI have a 1996 Honda Accord with a pioneer deh-p6400 head unit. I tried to install an amp. Held the ground to soem metal and tried to get it to turn on. I tried the power antennae wire and it didnt' work. Nothing seems to work. I dont want to splice any wires or anything

Answer:

hes right....all u have to do is continue the blue/white wire to the remote spot of the amp.
The pioneer head unit should have a 'remote' wire that is energized while the head unit is turned on. you could also tap a fuse that is energized while the key is in the on position, such as the windshild wipers, or the pwr window fuse. Then the amp will come on whenever the kar is turned on.
The remote wire is the blue/white wire. The power antenna wire(blue) only has current when the tuner is being used therefore your amp would only work with the radio and nothing else.
