So everyone is using the fuse panel #23 fuse for amp turn on? When I installed the ktp 445 in my 2011 there was a wire in the adapter harness that I used for the turn on signal. Has anyone found the same for the Parrott harness? I guess on my 2015 I will use a voltmeter and measure all the pins to see if there is a 12 volt signal. I read somewhere that the green wire in the harness can be used as a signal. When I checked my harness it appeared to be a speaker wire.

There's no official wiring diagram, because we're using the harness for something other than it's intended purpose. I believe the Parrot harness uses standard color coding. Power & ground (if not bare metal ground) are obvious, speaker output from the radio side of the harness are your input signal; amp output side connects to the body harness side of the Parrot.

Edit: If you were using RCA Input via a LOC or aftermarket head unit, you would usually need a remote turn on lead. Usually that's coming from whatever the sources of the RCA's though. There is a switch on the bottom of the Alpine unit that lets you select RCA or speaker level input
From the 445u manual
For the “Speaker Level Input System” setting, connecting the
Remote Turn-On Lead is not required due to the “REMOTE
SENSING” function of this product. However, the “REMOTE
SENSING” function may not work depending on the signal
source connected. In such a case, connect the Remote Turn-On
Lead to an incoming power supply wire (accessory power) in the
ACC position.
In my case; autosensing worked fine from the 2013 4.3" oem radio, and also from a Kenwood DDX6902s, that I have since upgraded to.

My amp turns on also when the doors open, the only way to stop it is to wire the amp power to the battery or some other power wire that works and then hook up the blue remote wire.. hooking up the remote wire the way right now won't stop the amp from turning on when the doors open..
So far it hasn't had any negative effects on my system that the amp turns on, no dead batteries.
The amp can be bridged to run 90 watts to just the front door speakers and the rear speakers will work but I belive the fader acts funny.. I found the 45 watts are plenty of power for Polk speakers.

I lost my door chimes/notifications when I upgraded everything. The reasoning is that if the amp/DSP is on as soon as I open the doors, then the IPC will sense resistance on the speakers and decide to send the signal out the ACM instead of playing them itself.
