Man this what all videos should be like straight to the point and no bull.... I greatly appreciate you!!!

You’re awesome! thank you for uploading this. Took me about an hour and a half to get my Rockford p300 10t in.

Great Job!!! Your instructions worked perfectly!!! Really appreciate you making this video!!

I picked up the same amp/sub set up and i wired it up with the factory 1212 plug, very easy. But i didnt have a way to use forscan and 1 of the 3 dealerships that i was able to actual talk to an advisor said $90 and soonest is 2 weeks out...yea screw that. Took a chance and wired it up exactly how you described with the same settings and it works PERFECTLY! thank you so much for making this video. Definitely recommend T-tap connectors for the speaker wires, pretty tight in there.

Also thanks for mentioning disconnection the negative battery terminal, absolutely none of the other install videos mentioned this.

Excellent video. Finally got mine done today. Thank you.

I cannot begin to tell you how helpful this was!! Thank you for making this video. The only thing I did differently was the speaker location and anchoring the speaker. I too had trouble with the speaker wire reaching the passenger side, so instead of splicing more wire, I moved the speaker to the center of the backseat. That gave me just enough length to reach. I ended up anchoring he speaker to the back bulkhead carpet because everytime I stepped on the brakes, the speaker would flop around.....so annoying. With that said, GREAT VIDEO!!

Great video thanks for your help.

“My Leg!” 😂 nah fr thank you ive been looking for the wire colors for speaker wires and refused to take the factory HU out just to tap in to it

More like this. You just saved me several hours and 3 panels worth of removal. You've earned a firm slap on the shoulder and a solid "Thanks, champ."

You need to get the signal from the front speakers, the rears don't get the full signal that the fronts get. The signal to the rears get bass cut out as the volume is increased. Otherwise thanks for the video

I've been googling and searching for days now for exactly the same answers as yours , only difference is that in my case I bought 2 different brands of active subwoofers ( WITHOUT REALISING THE KICKER IS SAME VIDEO, BUT THE " ICE " SUB ONLY HAS RCA INPUTS ) So can I connect 1 sub through RCA to main unit AND then connect the kicker through the speaker wires?

Anyone else have the issue where the amp won’t turn off after turning off the truck, removing the key and exiting the vehicle, Blue light stays on, I’m afraid of it draining my battery. Even though I’m having issues, still the best video on the HS-10 install.

I'm assuming that red wire was needed to extend your blue?

Butt splices are NOT a hack, that's exactly what you should be using on any automotive wiring. NEVER solder; the constant vibration of a vehicle will eventually cause solder joints to crack. That's why NASA uses crimp splices for spacecraft. You just need to make sure you use a proper crimper and make sure it's the right type for the splice you're using! I had to buy a different crimper for heat-shrink insulated connectors versus non-heat shrink. And always use ratcheting crimpers, they will always provide higher clamping force.

so where did you end up connecting the blue remote wire

How r u grounding to aluminum?

Wouldn’t you tap the stock subwoofer signals? After the dsm so you dont mess with the comoonants each door speaker and stuff is a component coming from the Sony dsp that’s filters everything. You def should have tapped after the stock amp and from the subwoofer signal

So you didn’t plug remote wire?

Is it any good?

I was thinking of putting 2 of these in my extended cab f150. Is it required to have both speakers wired into one sub? Is it possible to just wire the driver side wires to the driver side sub and vice versa for the passenger side wires for the passenger side sub?

I just checked my truck and i do hae the connector back there. If I purchase the pigtail, what wiring will that take care of? also do u have a wiring diagram of how it should connect to the amp pigtail? what other connectors will i need?

2020 F150 - After I tapped into the Right Rear Speaker wires (+/-), my check engine light comes on, the error states “Malfunction Indicator Lamp - Regulatory: Powertrain Control Module has detected the power relay de-energized earlier than expected”. I followed your video exactly, I triple checked the wiring. Funny thing is, I tested the sub while only Left was wired in, and it sounded great and no engine light. Any thoughts/ideas?

I have a 2019 without the c pillar connector. About to pull the trigger on this sub. Anyone follow this to a T and ensure it works ?

The truck is aluminum the ground needs to go to the frame or battery not the body. Also tieing it to the speaker wires wont work for the sub the radio cuts the bass as the volume goes up.

did the sub come with all the wires you needed or you had to buy them separately?

Can I do this on 22 tundra double cab? Do you know if the speaker wire colors are usually the same on other vehicles. Great video btw

I thought it had to be wired directly to the battery. Does it not draw much power?

Quick question, why not use an inline fuse on that constant 12v? No need? Thanks Also great video!

If I'm tying into my factory speakers do I have to run the blue remote wire?

Where did u hoop up the remote wire?

Also I realized at the end you mentioned using Forscan. So in order to use that connector, you have to turn that connector on?

Do you have auto start stop? If so, does it affect the sub?

So i installed mine this same way. I have a android head unit as well. for some reason the sub works great when i play music from internet apps pandora etc, or off of my phone. But for some reason the signal goes away when i use the trucks am/fm radio, or the factory Sirius Radio. There is no sound whatsoever coming from Sub in these two situations. Does yours do that or did i do something wrong?

How the subwoofer is behaving with the auto/start feature?

I want to add a second subwoofer to my truck but don’t want a crap ton of extra money in this system. Can I do this on top of my Sony sound system with the stock subwoofer?

How were you able to discern which was speaker wire or not in the sides?

I don't understand why people run RCA's from the stereo or tap into speaker speaker wires. There's literally a wiring harnessed in the left side rear pillar. Just get your signal there and run power. It even has a remote turn on wire(blue). You just need a motorcraft wcc 1212 harness plug, Amazon 22 bucks. To use the remote turn on you have to turn it on with forscan or the Ford dealer if you don't have DC offswitch

Anyone else have the issue where your truck has the wpt12 with no signal or power? Ive read forums and watched other videos to enable it in forscan with no success. Im about to bypass it entirely and lean on this video.

Total Bling Bling

How do you anchor one of these subs?

Does it come with wiring and the knob in the box?

Butt splices aren't the hack, Scotch lock splices are a total hack. Especially on your power connection, they cannot handle any current.

So I have an amp an subwoofer, it has direct power connection to the battery but I recently got a new radio installed and they didn’t hook up the amp. Can I use this same method in the video to give my amp signal?

What is a WPT-12 connector?

You sir….are clipping hard. You have your bass boost all the way up and your gains almost half….when using bass boost the gain comes down and if you turn down your bass boost your gain goes up. Play a 40hz test tone, turn your bass knob all the way up then set you bass boost to where ever you want and then start to set your gain, once you hear the bass sound different turn your gains down until it goes away.

Did you adjust any settings in your factory settings to improve sound? Not too blown away with it after install. I thought it would be better.

Once again another video showing sub install but no sub playing music, im starting to think these guys just do these videos for the views, how do we know the speaker wires are correct when he didnt even play music thru it?

Don’t buy this! Tech support just told me these woofers only last a couple years, and most quit after only a couple weeks!
