Default Amp power on wire? Help, I am stuck!!!

HI,

I have searched the forums with no luck. I installed a JVC aftermarket stereo removing the HD-76160-06 Stock Radio. Have everything working but the power on for the AMP, (HD P/N 76192-06B) is amp HD Part Number. Does anyone know which wire is power on that connects to my JVC White/Blue wire? I cannot find a decent diagram for this amp anywhere to tell me. Amp is a Harman Kardon amp made for Harley Boom Kit. I just need this one wire but the heck if I can figure out which one it is. 2013 Road Glide Custom.

Thanks Everyone

Are u looking for the remote wire that turns ON the amp? If so look for an orange wire near your head light plug (by the actual head light) It's set up as a female plug to use as a remote wire.

The rest of the connections are speaker connections.

So this is what I have. If you look at this drawing, it has the amp connector I have. Which one is the control wire from the radio?

Are you positive you need one? Some amps use the signal they sense from the radios speaker outputs. If that's how it was designed then you wouldn't need to use a remote on wire.

I thought that but I am not sure. I have no sound at all. I have power to the amp on #3 and #4 12v. Grounds seem good that is why I thought I would need to use the remote amp wire.

Well If he is using an aftermarket HU then he wouldn't be getting the Can signal to turn the amp is on. Think its gonna be trial by error

It is an aftermarket radio, jvc. Does one of the CAN wires turn the amp on thus the JVC remote amp wire would connect to? There is CAN + and CAN -....

Can you wire it to any other remote wire on the bike? Accessory switch, headlight, etc.

Not sure how the HD harness is set up, but the aftermarket amps get connected there.
