Installed buddy's system.. what's wrong?

[Phlipbak 10+ year member]

Ok, first off everything is hooked up and running.. but the remote wire isn't telling the amp to cut off with the car.. it just stays on all the time!! And the headunit's volume just suddenly rises really quick and you have to cut the car off to get it to stop... WHAT THE HECK!?

The headunit sucks cack, and you probably used the direct power wire for the remote.

Lol guys it's not a crappy install.. pretty clean, it's just my first.. geez.. and also the remote wire is plugged into the remote wire slot on the Kicker KX1200.1, and the remote wire is plugged into the "wire" slot on the back of the Pioneer DEH-6000 HU.. so where's the amp not cutting off and the headunit's volume freakin' out coming from? Brand new HU (week or so old)

It can still be a "clean" install and be shitty. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

Where at are you in dothan? I'm about an 1 an 1/2 from dothan. I can give you a hand if i'm heading up there or something.

Ok, well it's not a "shitty" install, I don't have pics cuz it's in HIS car lol.. but any suggestions on it? Is the remote wire in the wrong place, like has anyone used a DEH-6000?

HU brand? never seen a "wire" slot on a HU //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

He's saying it's a new HU.

Pull out that HU and look for an effing remote wire. I have never heard of the wire slot you're talking about, but I may have just never seen it.

Pull the HU. Look for the remote. Take pictures because we wont believe you if it doesnt have one.

remote wire is usually a blue wire //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif
