    For what purpose?
    If it is to turn amp on/off then use the remote turn on wire from the headunit.

    Try getting the wiring diagram for ur headunit out and making sure the one u hooked it up to was the on wire. If its not working find the wire that supplies the power to radio when u turn ur ignition on and just tap into that.
