[QUOTE="bbeljefe, post: 8222404, member: 655960"] [quote name='Chromatic']I'm about to run to the store to grab a couple relays (both for when I pull my headunit to put the rear view camera in, the new "special" kenwood cord to run my Navigation off my phone,.. and to wire up the relay you suggested to isolate and create a proper ground for the headunit. But let me get this perfectly straight with the relay I'll be messing with today. I run a fused wire (3amp or less) to the 4gauge power wire on the amp (from[B][U] terminal 30[/U][/B]) I pull the remote wire from amp, and run it to[B][U] terminal 87[/U][/B],.. then I split that wire two more ways and one goes to amp remote in,.. and other to Positive wire off the fan itself. ([B][I][U]The diagram shows two 87's.. so I do that, or I run 87a to either the remote in on amp,.. and 87 to + of fan (or vice versa)[/U][/I][/B].) I run the remote wire from headunit into[B][U] terminal 86[/U][/B]. And.. finally I just tap into the 4gauge ground on amp , run a wire from it to[U] [B]terminal 85[/B][/U],.. and also tap that wire to run to the ground of the fan. I'm just trying to make this straight mostly on the wires I'm having to split 2 or more ways. If anyone else wants to answer if [USER=655960]@bbeljefe[/USER] ; isn't around, I'd appreciate it to. I'm using his diagram quoted above to reference this. Thanks[/QUOTE] The relay doesn't have two 87s. It has 87 and 87a. That's an important distinction and it's the reason why I didn't mention 87a.
