    I have the pioneer 4100DVD H/U, i've had it for a few weeks, but never wired in the factory sub. I didn't have the connecter to wire it. Well today I got the audiophile connecter that receives the stock wiring plug and converts it to the Red and White plugs to plug in to the H/U. There are also two blue wires coming off the back of the connector. I just plugged everything up, other than the two blue wires, and the sub is still not firing. I have it turned on and up through the H/U, but it's still not firing. Does anybody know if these two blue wires are necessary and if so where they go??

    Where all your speaker leads are coming from the factory harness there should be a blue and white wire.. that should be remote/amp on so if the blue wires say amp on wire them to that

    If I'm not mistaken the remote wire coming out of the head unit should be hot too.
