ibld92 Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 well i got an eclipse yesterday and it came with a kenwood kdc mp335 headunit it looks like an older model but it had preamps and everything so i hooked my 15in rockford p1 sub up to it and when i was going to hook up the remote wire i didnt know which wire i was supposed to hook it up to so what i did was i hooked it up to remote to power but i ran it through a toggle switch so it wouldnt drain my battery but i dont have my keys on me right now so i cant test it i had it hooked up in my room for a long time and did it like this using a computer powersource to run it but should it work fine or do i need to hook the remote wire up to my headunit and if i do which wire am i supposed to hook it up to? thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azagtoth502 Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 (edited) Typically the remote wire is blue. In this case it's blue/white. http://www.kenwoodusa.com/UserFiles/File/Global/Consumer/Manuals/KDC-MP3035.pdf Edited April 22, 2011 by azagtoth502 Quote pa-pa-platypus sorry not everybody has a companies nuts so far down their throat they catch every drop ball sweat when it falls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

n8ball2013 Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 no its going to be blue and white. Blue is power antenna. How do some of you feel comfortable giving advice.

n8ball2013 Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 kenwood kdc mp335 is the head unit. Ive only installed hundreds of kenwoods. including my last two cars and my current daily driver. Its blue and white. Want to see the manual to make sure? http://www.generalmanual.com/Audio/Kenwood-KDC-MP335-1-DIN-CD-Receiver.htm go there and look. Realize if im posting something technical I'm not pulling shit out of my ass.
