Rear Speaker Deck Removal and Amp Install

[MrTej]

Does anyone have a wiring diagram that spells out what wires are what in the passenger side rear deck harness? My shop tapped that harness for R&L
+/- and 12v switched for a LOC and also grounded it in rear deck. Yesterday a full day after install I inspected their work (moving wires and LOC) and my car all of a sudden wouldn't start (would turn over and over but no bang) I unplugged the LOC and went back in car and it fired up immediately. Trying to determine if they accidentally tapped a signal wire instead of 12v switched that is causing the starting issue or if I just so happened to have a starting issue that coincided with my LOC inspection. Anyone know if there is security or fuel or signal wiring in that passenger rear deck harness??

Did you ever get this resolved? I just installed an amp yesterday and I am having this exact same problem right now. The car started immediately after the install and I went out to run an errand. I got back into the car to leave and it turned over but wouldn't start. First thing I did was pulled the fuse on my 4ga power wire under the hood and it started up immediately.

I'm thinking its either a bad ground (I used one of the open bolt holes in the spare tire well- maybe I didn't sand off enough paint?) OR the location I connected the power wire to in the fuse block under the hood is not a good place. I currently have it connected to the first slot (closest to the battery) in the fuse block.

Has anyone else seen this or have any ideas of what could be causing this?

Where are you guys connecting your power wire under the hood?

I've always connected mine directly to the battery terminals. To be descriptive I ran mine from the positive terminal (bolted down on the tightening portion) around the inside of the battery in that tub near the wiper cowl, and then down into the passenger wheel well to hit that grommet that is behind the wheel liner. Then all the way back to the trunk.

Also, basic car audio installations will still have an inline fuse near (less than 12 inches) from the terminal. I'm sure people have had success tapping the fuse box but I have always done it the way I explained. It's easy to trouble shoot as well provided you have access to a multimeter.
