Amp keyed remote wire w/ Auto start/stop
Anyone successfully found a keyed fuse for the amp remote turn on with auto start/stop. I have tried passenger fuse box fuse 23 and 37. When the truck starts up on auto start the amp cuts out for just a couple seconds.

I am running a JL XD500. It has 3 different options for turn on. Remote, signal sense, and DC offset. I found the signal sense only turns on the amp when the radio is turned on so there is a slight delay. DC offset powers the amp on as soon as you open the door so there is no delay. Both sense options power down after about 1 minute after closing door. I have had no false starts or stops using the sense option and no signal noise either.

I have a Kicker Hideaway sub, and have it's remote blue wire connected to #23, and have had no problems whatsoever.
When my truck shuts off at a light, the sub still pumps away without a hitch. Sometime when I've got it loud, I don't even realize the truck has shut off until I see the little green light.
I'll be adding an Alpine amp as well pretty soon, and plan on running the remote wire to the exact same spot.
My sub has a switch for 12v and DC offset. I have mine set to 12v. When on DC, it would turn off on it own.

• Remote Turn-On: Set the switch to +12V to use the remote turn-on lead from your source unit. Run 18
gauge wire from the Remote Turn-On Lead on your source unit to the terminal labeled REM on the quickconnect
power harness. This is the preferred automatic turn-on method.
• DC Offset Turn-On: If Remote Turn-On is not an option, the next best setting is DC Offset. The DC Offset
mode detects a DC offset from the HI-Level speaker outputs when the source unit has been turned on.

Im using signal sense and under auto start/stop when the truck shuts down at a light the amp is on. When i let off the brake and the truck starts the green power light on my amp turns to red and the amp shuts off for two seconds then back to green and comes back on. I have a kicker 300.1 with just remote and signal sense. Also can't find a fuse to make it stay on either.
