where does remote wire go from aftermarket amp?
well i had my amp/sub professionally installed a few months ago and just recently i had the ground wire come loose and it touched some metal causing it to blow the inline fuse. replaced the inline fuse and hooked everything back up and the amp wouldnt turn on. I found that if i took part of the remote wire and twisted it in with the battery wire, it would turn on. so i'm not sure if this is how they originally installed this but i dont see why because i feel like it will drain my battery.
so i wanted to check the other end of the remote wire to make sure that didn't come loose or something, but was wondering where the other end would be hooked into? would it be in the command unit? or is there a factory amp that it would be hooked into?
thanks
