Just checked the manual. According the Fusion the remote turn on should be Blue with White stripe.

It's possible the wire changed color somewhere between the HU and amp. My HU ground was not the same color by the time it reached it's destination. I had to do some wire tracing because I removed the old amp in the fall and forgot that they ground the HU to the amp from the factory.

That's what I was thinking. Hook a test light up to it and cycle the key to ACC and see if it goes on and off.

Yeah the Fusion HU has the typical blue/white wire going into the molex on one side and then grey/green coming out which I though was weird. Then by the speaker wires where the amp rack goes there is one single blue/black wire with a round remake butt connector on it. I guess I will just turn on the HU and see if it energizes. Really strange. Can't think what else that single blue wire that was taped to the speaker wires would be for.....

Yeah that wire didnt work. It was only 4.3V. So I had to run a remote wire all the way around to the helm and hook it up to one of the accessory switches. So I have to turn on the amps manually. It's annoying but it works. I even check the blue white wire coming out of the Fusion HU and it wasn't even going to 12V when I turned the thing on. Totally blizzard.

I'm not 100% but I would think you'd be fine with 4volts for the amp turn on. All the turn on it doing is flipping an internal "switch" to start receiving power from the main cable.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

You would think so, but it wasn't working. Maybe because I have 3 amps and the ZLCD all connected to the same remote wire?

The remote turn on is only supposed to be 5 volts I thought.

I googled it and it said 12V. Regardless,it would not turn any of the amps on. Perhaps the load sharing across 4 devices is causing the problem. First time I have even had this issue amongst the numerous stereo setups I have done on boats and cars. Maybe I can mess with it later. At least the switch has me up and running for now. Has anyone else figured out what those other two accessory switches are connected to? 2 of the 3 have wires connected to the closed circuit side of the switch. I used the one that didn't to connect the remote wire to.

Hope you didnt use a test light to find that turn-on lead? That could easily pop the output.
