  • Remote Wire for afteramrket amp

    Now heres a question why can't you run your aftermarket amp on the monsoon remote wire... I was just thinking about this today at work... Cause the monsoon would need a trigger for it to work, well why not spilt off that and use that.. or would this cause problems? and by the way i am useing the factory heatunit thats why i am askin this question be4 i take it to the sound shop.

    One reason I can think of is that the amount of current draw may be too much for the remote wire, which could burn it / cause a fire.

      I think the bigger problem would be finding the remote wire. If you knew where it was, you should be able to tap into it and use it - the remote wire draws very little current - just enough to know when to turn the amp on and off.

      I ran my remote wire off of my heated seat fuse

          The monsoon amp uses a negative trigger. The wires are always hot.

          ... and remote wires barely draw any current at all, that's the power wire you're thinking of.

              Just run it off the fuse for the windshield wipers. I work for bestbuy and all the pros in the bay do that. Thats what I did and it works fine. Turns on when you turn your key to accesories. and when the car is on ignition. Saves a TON of hassle.

                How exactly are these pros connecting it to the wiper fuse?
