I bought an aftermarket head unit (Alpine CDA-9886) and I'm putting it in my 05 quad cab dodge ram. The truck has the Infinity stereo system in it which I love but i want more flexibility for iPod and things like that. The issue I'm having is with the remote turn on wire. Coming out of the dash, I have an unlabeled wire that is blue that runs to the factory amp. On the back of the head unit i have a blue wire with a white stripe that is labeled for the remote turn on. The blue wire coming out of the dash has a connector on the end to connect to the factory unit. Im wondering if i snip this wire and connect it to the remote turn on from the Alpine unit if this will give me sound. All the other wires are connected via a wiring harness adapter and I have power on the unit, but no sound! Im trying to find an easy fix before all of this gets too expensive.
Thanks
