Pac C2agm24 Remote Acting Funny

[Brock503]

Has anyone else had this remote issue. I installed a PAC adapter for my class II bose stereo and added 2 amps. Everything works as it should and the sound quality from the adapter is pretty good. The thing is when I first start the truck the aftermarket amps will not start until I adjust the volume up slightly. Seem like the PAC adapter does not see to send the remote signal unless it senses a change in volume. I am curious if anyone with this adapter has noticed this.

 

I may be moving the remote wire to the seat heater circuit so the amps will only run with the truck running. Then I can listen to just the back speakers for a few minutes while I am sitting in the truck before work.

 

 

<- what the hell is that?

Are you using an aftermarket deck? If so maybe it would be better to just tap the amp turn on wire? If not there is a wire running out of the BCM that would be good to trigger a relay so that your amp is always on with the Retained Accessory Power.

if the adapter's turn on lead doesn't act as you want just do as you said, pic another source for a turn on lead, any switched 12v will do. I usually used the windshield wiper circuit.
