How do you wire car amp to turn off with radio?
Your amplifier should(hopefully) have an input for a "remote turn on" or some words to that effect. Hopefully your deck has either a "remote turn on" wire or a "power antenna" wire coming out the back of it. If it does, you're in business. Extend it to the "remote turn on" on the amp and you should be good!
What is the remote wire for car stereos purpose?
It runs from your deck to the amplifier. When the deck turns on, it sends a low voltage signal to the amp to let the amp know to turn on. If you are running an amp on a stock stereo, there are other ways to turn the amp on without a remote wire, but that's the easiest way. So, simple answer, it turns your amp on when the stereo comes on.
What does the remote wire hook up to on the back of a CD player?
It is most likely for a remote control accesssory that allows you to perform normal CD playback functions with a controller wired to the player. For example, you can sit in your chair and adjust the volume or skip songs without getting up and going to the player. The remote wire goes to the amp. its the turn on switch from your deck to your amp. if your not running an amp, then put electrical tape around the wire , so it doesn't touch any metal and ground out.
How do i get my sub to work on CD instead of just the radio with the stock deck on a 2007 tiburon?
Okay first of all I have to assume that you've added an Amp and Sub to to the vehicle and that the only thing stock is the deck. The reason the Sub's amp is only working when the radio is on is because the remote wire on the Amp is connected to the power antenna wire on the deck. The deck only powers the power antenna when the radio is on then turns it off when you switch to CD because the antenna isn't needed to play a CD. If the deck also has a wire labeled remote then use that one instead. If there is no remote wire on your deck an alternate solution would be to connect the remote wire on the amp to a (switched hot) or acc fuse in the fusebox (in other words to something that is only powered when the key switch is on like the windshield wipers, if you connect it to something powered all the time like the lights or horn then the amp would stay on all the time and kill your battery) this way the amp will be activated anytime the Key switch is on and would work regardless of whether you are listening to the radio or playing a CD.
Where do you attach the remote wire to your car stereo?
The remote wire coming out of your car stereo constantly sends a low voltage signal while the stereo is turned on. This is to signal external components such as amplifiers or power antenae to activate. If you don't have these items, the remote wire should be taped off as to not ground out on anything. IF you were wondering where to run the remote wire from your amplifier to a stereo that does not have a remote wire, I would suggest sistering it to the hot wire (red) coming out of the stereo. Make sure that your radio doesn't function without the ignition turned on. If your radio works without the key in the ignition and you have your remote wire from your amp wired to the hot wire on your deck your amp will remain on all of the time wether you're in the car or not. This will lead to a dead battery. Hope this helps Shane (vmax33)
