The unit has a blue wire on it - that's your remote amp turn on cable.

Of course if you replaced an OEM cassette unit up front and not the screen you have no aftermarket loom running to the boot so no blue cable (quadlock is up front).

If so, grab the purple and white stripe cable that goes to the Radio Control Module.

Should sort you out... :thumbsup:

remapping is done as well as gearbox software update but it did not cure the problem i had with it , we'll see how long the gearbox will last. i've driven the car for 130 miles after the remap but since i hit the rush hour traffic did not get a chance to enjoy the ride. will give it some time to see how it does for me.
Sanj, thanks for showing up at jason's. great conversation! please forward me the info about the LED tail lights as well as the interior led's.
and of course thank you Jason and his team.
