i'm on the process of installing an amp for a sub. i already run a power wire from the battery. my question is where do i tap in to get the system control power.
thanks,

system control? meaning remote wire I am guessing? If so check out this link,

This link has all the wire coloring codes for the scion.

Hope that helps.

 

There's an output from the radio called a remote output. It will send a power signal everytime you turn on the headunit - every amp install kit will come with it - its a long thin wire that you need to run from the headnit to the amp's remote input.

 

wow thats fast!!!. thanks guys. yeah its the remote relay.
thanks,

more question, looking at the wiring chart, is it the radio 12v, or the radio switch? any link on how to access those?
thanks,

thanks again,

After burning up a fuse hooking the remote start up wrong, I decided to hook it to the lighter. Haven't had any problems since.

 

How exactly are you hooking it into the lighter power source?
