[QUOTE="lamontjersey, post: 106097, member: 546121"] not all remote wires are blue. but anyway, here's how you can test to see if that is the remote wire: take a 12v car light bulb about 500ma or less and touch the stray wire to one prong and touch the other prong to a metal part of the car , then turn the radio on then off then on and off again, if the light comes on with the radio, than that's the remote wire. or if you have a test light or volt meter that's way better to use because you dont want your hand to slip and let the remote wire touch a metal part of the car. also, the remote wire is supposed to turn the amp on and off when you turn the radio off, other wise, when you turned your car off at night the amp would still be on, so, if that isnt the remote wire i wouldn't use it.
