I have installed an aftermarket amp in my 2001 monte carlo, but I can’t seem to find the REM wire to connect to the amp. I have tried running a wire from the radio fuse to the amp it’s self but that didn’t work either. I am running out of ideas. Can anyone help me figure out what I might be doing wrong? The car is equip with OnStar-all of those wires are disconnected. Also I am using the power wire that was to the old stock amp/booster, maybe it is not getting enough power?
Marcus, technically you could connect your 2001 Chevrolet Monte Carlo amplifier turn on wire to the radio switched 12v+ wire. That way your amplifier is on whenever your 2001 Chevrolet Monte Carlo is on and off whenever your 2001 Chevrolet Monte Carlo is off. Just make sure to run an in-line 1-amp fuse on the amplifier turn on wire. Hope this helps. Good Luck.
I have installed an after market radio to my car everthing works but my turn signals and hazards anyone know what it could be.
what color radio switched for 2001 chevy monte carlo
Marcus, the radio switched wire is the yellow wire. Hope this helps. Good luck on your radio installation.
