1st think is re check all connections make sure u don't have wire touching metal or each other.. if not maybe find something else to connect it to or could be the switch..

How does a switch and cigarette lighter come into play wiring up an EQ? This is very hard to follow. Do you know what the blue blue/white wire(s) are for on the back of your head unit?

My switch is a 3 prog switch 2 are postive and ground them powers are attached to the cig wires my console cig light is broke it dont work so i used the wire from that i have 2 one is broken and the 3rd prog is accezory and thats where the remote wires run to and how am i goin to run power wire and remote wire to back of radio thats 2 much power on one wire just sayin and thank u i figured it out tho i was playin wit system thats y i didnt reply back. My sub amp has auto turn on switch and it was in auto turn on im guessin wit it bein in that mode when u turn radio up it automatic gives the signal to amps to turn on at high volume so i fixed that noe im tryns figure out why my subs are making a thumping on top of thumping. Like music plays system sounds good but when u hear the subs go to the beat of music u hear a extra thumping noise that aint suppose to be there like theres a feedback coming from somewhere idk if a signal wire is on top of power and thats the reason idk. I was told ground but idk

check ground and rcas (maybe test another set) on the sub but maybe trying wiring it to another wire.. like i said could just be that switch..
