Howdy there,
Have just installed a system into a mates Corsa D, everything went dead on, except for the fact I can't pick up a remote feed from the head unit, its the standard vauxhall unit, CD30? has the aux in.

I coudnt for the life of me find a remote type wire, so the amp turns off/on with the, only was able take it from the power so its constantly on, had to wire a switch on.

Would anyone know how to solve this problem, so I don't need a switch, or where on the car ignition I could tap into ?

thanks

You could tap into anything that comes on with the ignition, such as the cigarette lighter which will be easily got at...

Tie it into the ignition wire for the radio then, which would be the easiest option and ensures it only goes on with the radio...

There is no ignition lead on the standard new vauxhall headunits, Astra h Corsa C zafiras etc, you have to run them of else were, in the astras ive been runing them off the cigarette lighter/12v socket there was an ignition live strapped to it not connected. failing that there is one in the hazzard light switch

99% sure there is a remote out on the newer vauxhall radios, there will be no wire in the plug but you can still use it, just need to check with a multimeter.

Without being able to see the headunit/wiring be hard to tell you what wires are what.

Aup pal I purchased one of the conversion kits n the dash light doesn't work I've got to bypass the handbrake n steering wheel controls don't work because on the conversion kit there's not the same amount of wire as the original wiring
