Hi,I,ve just finished wiring in my amp to the car. I have a sony head unit and I've used the blue wire to control the amp on and off. Problem is the amp only works with the radio on. When I change the source to cd or tape the power is turned off to the amp. I know that this wire can also be used to power the electric aerial. So I'm thinking thats set to power an aerial, so that when I change from radio it turns power off to let the aerial back down. Is there a way around this. I put my JVC headunit in and works fine. Can anyone shed some light on the situation.
power antenna is blue remote is blue with white trace
or vice versa. I forget on Sony.. I try to avoid anything they make.

it should be the other blue wire coming out the back of the stereo. this is true for most aftermarket decks but i know sony's for a fact have a solid blue for rem antennae which you are currently hooked onto and there should be another blue one with a white stripe and thats for the rem amp turn on and thats the one you really want. jay
