bypassing the lead wire

[PSiedTSi]

you could always just direct connect it like GSR said but just put a switch in there to turn it on and off...

I check the lead wire, and there was nothing wrong with it. Im going to re-crimp it to see if that helps. Problem is her deck is starting to go so I wonder if her lead wire just doesnt send a signal anymore?

that could very well be the case....bad lead wire from deck

Tony's idea is how I had it hooked up in my talon... that way if you get tired of the head ache inducing bass, you can turn it off.

But if you dont have a turn on lead wire running from the deck, it wont be able to cut the power to it from the amp. The switch is a good idea, although I never found myself using it. If you have a cd player that has 2 custom EQ settings, than it would be worth it. Retuning your system everytime you want you system on or off is a hassle and just turning subs off when you have the system tuned for subwoofers will make horrible sound quality.
Check for 12 volts(MultiMeter or a testlight) at the end of the lead wire to see if your wire is good, then check it at the end of your crimp. You can also make a quick temporary jumper from your power wire, to see if that works. Looking at the wire will not determin if it is good or not. Couldve been pinched in the process of moving the entire system(has happened to me before).
My 2 cents.
