Another Switched Power Thread..please help
OK guys, here is what I did and where I am at. (2010 F150 Screw Sync Single CD not Sony) Replaced door speakers-improvement. Added Kicker Hideaway-much more improvement. Today I added the Alpine 445U amp-even more improvement, but here is where I start running in to issues. I was switching the Hideaway with the speaker wires and now after adding the amp, it doesn't switch it on. I figure ok, I will run the switch wire instead. Ran the switch wire to the fuse box. After trying a handful of fuses, I honestly do not think that any of the fuses are switched. Now I don't know what to do. Run it to the cigarette lighter? After I get it hooked up, I am still not sure it will still work.. Any help is appreciated.

I'm not by my notes at the moment, but I believe you want to try fuse number 41, 37, or 38. I THINK 41 is delayed switch, while the other two are just switched. I'll let you know for sure tomorrow morning. Also, this is the fuse panel by the passenger front seat floor

If you're sitting in the passenger seat with your feet stretched out, it will be right by your right foot behind a little pullout panel with a symbol on it. You can't really miss it.

Excellent! Thanks! Did you just use one of these? I assume they use mini fuses like this?

So now I have both my sub and amp remote wires stuck behind the same fuse. At first I didn't think the fuse would go back in with the wires there, but works just fine.
