Amp and Sub wiring: need help

[RookieLibertyist]

OK. i installed an amp and subwoofer the other day and the light on the amp is

always on even when the car is off. this is because of the one wire (i forget

what its called) thats plugged into the fuse panel on the driver side of the car

by the instrument panel. i was wondering what fuse (try and give me the

number) is the fuse for the radio that way the amp will only be on when the

radio is on and it will be off when the car is. thanks.

That is probably a constant hot fuse. You will have to find a fuse to tap in to that is ignition hot. Maybe the horn? Blinkers?

Factory or after market radio?
If it is after market then just
use the "turn on" wire at the radio
every after market radio has 1

If not just tap the cig lighter or 1 of the power outlets
IIRC they are switched

ok. its stock radio forgot to mention that. what is the number on the panel for blinkers or horn?

Take the radio fuse.
Cavity #21.
The horn, cigar lighter, rear power outlet are all constant power so will end up doing the same as what you already have!

Has anyone checked if stock radio should has a turn on lead somewhere in the back for the infinity amps? That might be helpful for those who still use stock radio.

like he said, radio fuse. or you can run a switch off your remote wire if its on constant power.
