I don't want to tear my dash apart to get to the on/off switched wire to automatcially turn on my Bazooka csa300.1 sub. What signal is the remote on/off on the sub looking for to switch it on.

It's only looking for any +12 volts.

Tried that, but couldn't get it to switch on. Looks like I have some trobuleshooting to do...

Does it work if you just jump straight from the power wire to the turn on connection?

My chief complaint about bazooka style subs is the lack of a remote connection - supposedly they have auto off circuitry that senses when the vehicle is turned off but I went through 3 batteries before figuring out it was the culprit.

I tried jumping from the 12V source to the remote but couldn't get the amp to light up...

As far as the auto off, I put a relay in line with a switched source so the amp doesn't get power until the key is on.

For my Bazooka sub I just tapped into the positive wire of the accessory power outlet and ran a wire from there to the remote turn-on connector on the sub, with a switch in between.

Works great. I think Bazooka has a commercial device for controlling gain and toggling the sub on/off also, but I don't think its worth the extra $20-30 unless you really want to adjust your settings on the go all the time.
