The ground wire should be of the same gauge wire as the power
wire. As a rule of thumb, use as short length of wire as possible. Find
a location near the

Processor that is metal ( the floor is

ideal) and clean an area about the size of a quarter to bare metal.
Drill a pilot hole in the middle of this area. Terminate the wire with a
ring connector and attach it to the bare metal using a #8 sheet metal
screw and washer (not supplied). We suggest crimping and/or
soldering this connection. After the connection is complete, coat the
area with silicone or some similar material to prevent rust from
developing.

Finally, the remote IN wire needs to connect to the "Amplifier
Remote" lead of the head unit. This wire supplies a 12 volt signal to
the

Processor when the main System is activated. The

remote OUT wire is to be connected to the remote input of the
source amplifier or to and "optional" relay to activate multiple
amplifiers. Once you have routed the power, ground, and remote
wires through the vehicle, it is time to connect the wires to the

Processor. Be sure that you have not reconnected the

ground cable to the negative post of the battery.

points.

Cut off the excess wire and, using the wire strippers, strip the power,
ground and remote cables about 1/8 inch. Locate the power, ground,
and remote IN/OUT wires of the power plug (supplied). We again,
suggest crimping and or soldering each connection separately to
insure no damage to the unit or the audio system. Check that each
connection is tight. If the wires are secure, the plug may be inserted
into the

Processor.
