That rules out a bad connecting harness does the relay click at all? You should hear it or feel it. I know i can in the truck when my amps turn on.

relay should be 87 power

85 ground

86 turn on lead from amp

30 to amps

where is it grounded to?

No I couldn't hear or feel it click and I know they do when they engage which is why I tried different ones. I wasn't quite awake enough to really think about testing the relay itself. Other than the one with the pin that came out of it, I wasn't sure if the other two were bad or not. I'm going to do some testing when I get home, I leave in an hour and a half from work.

You mean 86 turn on from 360 or head unit?

The ground is at the buss bar for the battery bank.

Sorry 86 should be where your remote turn on lead is coming in at. So if you are using the head unit it should be attached there. Same with the 360. I would probably use the head units remote turn on lead since you'll need to turn on the 360 too. Since we know you've got a known good ground does the relay get full power from the 12 volt lead? We know the remote doesn't output full 12 volts. Is everything being turned on from the relay?

I'm going to blame the head units remote lead being shot and if you switch it to the acc wire it fire right up

I think you're probably right N8. I'm going to swap it out when I get home to the ignition wire. The only thing is, if it is that, then the remote wire goes to my antenna amp. I haven't been able to tell if it's bad or not, but I have HD radio built in, so some stations are great, and then others that probably should be good, but fade in and out of digital. So I don't know. Maybe I'll remove it from that, and then put it on the remote turn on from the 360 too. Although at this point I'm guessing I won't be listening to much radio anymore. Digital radio off the phone will be more the road I'll be going down.

Wait you should have two wires

Blue is power antenna

blue with a white stripe is remote turn on

they do different things. Double check what wire you are using. If you are using the blue wire it will only energize when the head unit is set to radio

Nope there's not. There's only one wire coming out of the head unit, it's blue and white. I though the same exact thing.

The other thing is, I just wanted to see everything turn on, so I just turned it on the radio tuner. So it would've turned it all on, or at least I'd have thought.

What head unit do you? Did you buy it new?

17) BLUE/WHITE - Connect to system control terminal or the power amp or auto antenna controller terminal (max.300 mA 12v DC)

That's from the manual. SO I wonder if I took it off the antenna, if it would work. I wonder if it's drawing too much from one? Not sure that electrical works like that, but maybe.
