Ref the remote lead from the stereo

[Sean]

I have just recently purchased a new amplifier for my fiat and I installed all of its components, and got to the last component which was the remote lead, it connects from the amp to the headunit, only I can't locate the remote plug in the back of the head unit.
Hope all this makes sense

Thanks
Sean

The remote wire will be the (all) blue one.

yes, it will b the blue one and if your head unit it has RCA out it should have the blue wire (often referred to as electric arial) If not just take a feed off your ignition, it'll be good enough!

Kind of, you should have two seperate blue wires.

One all blue - this is the specific remote out.
and
One blue/white - this is for an electric aerial (though it can also be used as a remout out).

mine only has one blue for both :"(

Still, prob not a bad thing, have you ever seen the back of one of the old panasonic phase II's? All the connectors are external from the head unit so it's like having an autoleads adaptor there to start with, then there is the changer wire, arial and 4 RCA leads. Not pretty in the space given by fiat!

Although i have to commend fiat on one thing, i ran the power lead for my rear speakers today and there was a nice handy clip next to the brake lines which 18swg wire fits into perfectly. makes the job so much easier!
