Hmnn was listening to it with everything hooked up. Went into the store come out n subs not working, my amp lights up and the lights were very fim, no protection light. Realized my ground was loose, so I stuck it back in the amp and lights for bright again, ..... For a few seconds then dimmed again. I'm replacing the hu thus weekend, not cause that just cause I got a better one so I'll check all wiring when I do this.

hmm, ya sounds like a connection problem somewhere if things started working when you messed with the wires.
Makes sure everything is tight, and not shorted anywhere.

Yea tomorrow I'm installing a new head unit, I bout a 7 inch tablet to incorporate with it, I also bought just a generic Bluetooth speaker, that I'm going to hack into it, it came with a mic so I'm assuming it supports calling too. Any advice on the matter? I want to have it setup where the tablet looks built into the car but its detachable also

I don't want to look detachable you know what I mean

so your going to replace the headunit all together with a tablet?

To do it right will take a lot of fabrication in the car. What type of car is it again?
Also, how are going to the audio from the tablets to the amp?

No not replace the head unit all together, I'm replacing my current head unit with a different head unit, the one I have/had looks really rough, scratched up can't read buttons etc.... And I got for free, a Sony explod fw-570 that I'm going to wire up in its place, then I'm taking a cheap a2dp blue tooth speaker apart and getting the Bluetooth module out, and fabricating it in somewhere. I'll take the speaker wires that ran to the little speaker, extend them and wire a aux male to the end and hook this into the aux in on my head unit. Fabricate the tablet into the dash, wire all this too acc and with the help of a couple apps the tablet will power up an cut on with the switch n power down with the switch. This way I have my CD player n am fm but plus I also have tablet in dash for stored music on there movies etc.... Or I can pair my phone or anyone else's phone with the Bluetooth to listen off my phone with Spotify. All running to the Bluetooth going into my head unit, and still have the option for aux, because the Bluetooth module has aux in jack. It's a Honda accord 2003. Ive already took the center console apart and I'm working on the skeleton for the tablet area, need to figure out where to mount the new head unit though. Also gotta question, on the back of the head unit it has remote in, looks like aux in, us it? Plus it has audio out front, audio out rear bus audio in sub out and bus control in. So is remote in my aux or do I use bus audio in rcas and adapters to get my aux?
