I'm trying to hook up the LEDs in my system, I've got the whole system working great, and pounding like nuts...the only problem, is that my LEDs on my subs aren't working as they should.
the way it's wired in right now, there is a remote line running from the deck, which tells the amp to turn on, as far as I know, its 12 volts, which should be ample power to give signal to the amp, and to power the LEDs. The wire is spliced along the path to the amp, so that the 2 would run in series, one end goes into the amp, and the other end goes into the LEDs, and then grounds to the frame. The amp obviously grounds to the frame as well, but that's a given.
Is there something I did wrong in hooking that up? should the LEDs have been hooked up in series on the 12v remote line?
oh...I'm also considering hooking the LEDs up to the output wires for the subwoofers, so the LEDs take the power from the bass pulsations, and will theoretically pulse with the bass as well...my friend swears by this, and says that to just use the positive and negative from the speaker outs going to the subs. Or would it work better to ground it to the frame?
