    Troubleshooting my install job

    I found a blue wire with a white line called "Amp turn on" If this is the right wire, should I splice it directly into the HU or somewhere else along the wire?   ---------- Post added at 03:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:08 PM ----------   I've got plenty of a electrical tape...
