Alot of newer cars have a factory amplifier running the speakers and require that you use the remote turn on lead from your HU, if you used the proper wiring harness adaptor there should have been some sort of connection for this.

From "Install doctor.com"- http://www.installdr.com/Harnesses/Ford-Wiring.pdf

Ford “Amplified” Radio Wire Harness

(Ford Premium/JBL/Mach systems that have an amplifier that powers the speakers)

This vehicle uses has a 2 pc wire harness. The black

connector is the input to the vehicles separate amplifer.

The second plug contains all necessary power wires.

DO NOT CUT THE WIRES OF THE BLACK

CONNECTOR OR THE THICK GRAY CABLE

The Install Doctor STRONGLY recommends using a snap on

“integration” wire harness adapter which will safely and easily allow

you to connect a new radio to the existing wires of the Ford amplified

radio system.

The “integration” wire harness adapter is designed to allow you to

install a new radio into a vehicle with amplifiers in the vehicle without

having to rewire the amplifiers or speakers. The new radio is then

“integrated” into the existing amplifiers and speakers.

“Integration” wire harnesses can be purchased at car audio installation

shops or large retail chains with car audio installation shops.
