Connection Descriptions - Dual BAK1500 Installation & Owner's Manual

Note: Be sure to follow specific instructions included with your amplifier
installation kit (not included with this amplifier). The information below should be
used a general guideline only.
Power Wire (+12V)
• Disconnect negative battery terminal before proceeding. Consult a qualified
technician for instructions if you are unsure.
• Plan wire routing before cutting any wires to length. Begin by routing the power
+12V wire from the battery to the amplifier location. Use a grommet when
running wires through the firewall or metal openings. Avoid running the power
wire near existing vehicle wiring to prevent induced noise from entering the
audio system.
• Use extreme caution when drilling holes to avoid damaging fuel lines or
existing vehicle wiring.
• The +12V wire MUST be fused within 18" of the battery for protection of the
vehicle's electrical system.
Ground Wire (GND)
• The amplifier ground wire should be as short as possible. Choose a clean
unpainted section of metal or the vehicle chassis when attaching the ground
connection. Be sure to clean the area of any dirt or grease.
Remote Turn-on Wire (REM)
• The remote turn-on wire connects to the head unit's amplifier turn-on lead or
other switched 12 volt source.
Input Signal
• The amplifier's input signal connects to the head unit's low level (RCA) outputs.
CAUTION
• Never run any wires underneath or outside the vehicle.
