so mad lol

so i messed with it more and noticed below

when the avh-p4000 is plugged in my amp does not turn on but when i plug in my other hu my amp does come on but there both wire the same??

i researched what i could on this i noticed in a thread someone with the same hu said that they had to wire the yellow wire to the red and red to the yellow? currently i have yellow-yellow red-red

right it shows a blue/white...

try connecting acc to the blue white in the metra harness with the pioneer blue disconnected and see if it turns on. I have a feeling the remote out on the P4000 was busted before and defiantly busted now

Ok I undid the red so the radio red wasn't connected to the red I hard wired

So I took the red from the wiped blade andi connected it to just the remote on the metras harness and yes the amp turns on but since I don't have the red connected to the red on my hu my radio stayed off...so now what are my options
