I am using my remote turn on wire for my amplifier but I just got a new switch to run some led's and at the tip of the switch is a light that needs to be hooked up to a small power source that kills when the car turns off. I was wondering if i could split my remote turn on wire from the back of the cdplayer and use it to power both the amp and the switch. Would this work? or how would i go about installing it?

it would work if you used a relay otherwise you run the risk of frying the remote output on your deck

x2 definitely; it's best to use a relay. They're cheap and easy to install.

look into a deck that has two remote turn ons

there are decks like that?

Yes a relay would be the easiest safest, and cheapest way to go... gives you the option of expanding to as many things you want connected to the single HU remote turn on wire...

Using a 30 amp SPDT relay, connect terminal #87 to constant 12 volts positive with a fuse rated to the sum of the additional accessories you've added and the components you need to turn on. (If you have two fans rated at 5 amps each and a neon light rated at 10 amps, you would use a 20 amp fuse plus 200 ma for each amplifier and processor.) Connect terminal #85 to ground, terminal #86 to the remote turn on lead from the head unit, and terminal #30 to each accessory with an appropriate fuse. A fuse (not shown) could also be used between the output of the relay (#30) and the remote turn on lead of the amplifiers and/or processors for extra precaution.

But wouldn't connecting the remote turn (on the amp) to a 12 volt source like blow that contact or something. Like, wouldn't there be too much power sent into the remote turn on from the battery?

the remote turn on is a 12 volt
