How would I use a stock head unit to trigger the remote turn on? The vehicle is a 2008 chevy k1500 pickup with the stock head unit. Does the HU have a remote turn on lead or maybe a power antenna turn on lead? I don't have a repair manual so I cant see the wire diagrams to tell if it does or where the wires are etc. Does anyone have this info or know where I could find it?
sure can, there are a couple ways to do it. you can run off the ignitions on/or run/or A.C.C., depending on how/when you want it to run. or you can set up a 12V toggle switch. some stock cars do have a remote... but only two that I've seen, so iam not going to say that all don't. also if the car comes with a sub/amp combo. but yours doesn't lol.
No, you do not have a remote turn on lead that you can use. But I'm gonna give you one more option. Truck-LOC by PAC Audio. I has the ability to provide you with a remote lead that goes on and off with the radio
Thanks for the info. Do you guys know if there is a power antenna turn on built into the HU or harness?
off the head or from the Ponytail? either way check the manual on the hu it should tell ya, if its stock the make and model will help.
