Factory sub
I didn't think that particular output on the head unit could even be configured for speaker level output? 245mV is kind of low for pre-amp voltage anyway, and 35mV is almost nothing. For reference, the Kicker hideway is rated for a low level input range of 125mV to 5V (5000mV).
I have a 2017 Raptor with Sony Sub. I was hoping to wire my sub in with a wpt1212 harness. Being an idiot, I didn't check that there was an OEM sub connector behind the rear drivers seat before i got ready to install. I go out to start the install and I do not have a an OEM sub connector. Not too happy. What options do I have to connect my powered sub I was going to replace the Sony with? Run power to battery and connect to high level input somwhere? Can you use the plug that goes into the sony sub?

If you have the Sony system, you have a subwoofer behind the rear seat along with a connecting harness. You can get the "mating" harness plug from digi key and just plug it in. Like others have stated, you will still be subjected to the factory eq roll off so you would either want to use an amp that has the ability to defeat this (all audiocontrol amps have this feature) or you can use an lc2i.

Do you need to make changes in forscan? Curious to the frequency of signal that is currently running out of the rear speakers before making forscan changes.
