P4killer_ Posted May 18, 2010 Report Share Posted May 18, 2010 i just double checked this on this forum the other day. search but red wire to pos of 12v source to be measured black to ground... the ground on the amp works fine for me. blue either ignition 12v or just run it to the remote wire from the h/u is the easiest Quote Setup: 2010 Hyundai Elantra Factory Unit via 4 chan NVX LOC Excessive Amperage "H/O" Alt Xs D3400/ Xs XP3000 Big 3. 2 Runs of +, 2 Runs of - DD M3b and 2 12" AQ HDC4s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandon15zzz Posted May 18, 2010 Report Share Posted May 18, 2010 I did basically what he said. I ran wires all the way back to my amp, ran the red wire to positive in my amp, black to ground in my amp, and pulled the dash out and connected the blue wire to the remote of my HU.

BeatBox Posted May 18, 2010 Report Share Posted May 18, 2010 x3^^^^ i did the same thing but i put a switch in between the remote wire to the Vmeter to turn it off when the blue LED's get annoying lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon15zzz Posted May 18, 2010 Report Share Posted May 18, 2010 (edited) haha yea I had a blue one and it was messed up. So I took it back to the shop and got red. Not only is it not blinding at night it closely matches my paint and interior. edit: SPELLING Edited May 18, 2010 by Brandon15zzz Quote Vehicle: 1995 Impala SSHead Unit: Pioneer AVH-P4400BHMids And Highs: (still deciding)Batteries: 1 Deka Group 34 Time to make a race car.My Build Log: Solo X 12"http://www.stevemead...don15zzz-build/My Build Log: DC lvl 4 xl 15"http://www.stevemead...don15zzz-build-My Wall Build Log: 4 Lanzar 15's/ 3k+ RMShttp://www.stevemead...t-by-techforce/My Feedback:http://www.stevemead...1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
