Just got my new HU DEH-P7400mp, had it pulled out and come to find out I have a factory amp. How do I bypass the factory amp?

 

i might be wrong..but i think u can just leave the amp harness hanging and just use the other harness....i remember i had that same harness and i left it hanging..and my cd player works fine.....BUT i may be wrong

TELL ME HOW IT GOES

 

Got the HU in and it is bada$$!!!!!!!! I just left the other harness hanging it seems to work fine. All the MP3's on one disk is sweeet!

 

HA..i knew it would work..good job man...dont BLOW TOO MANY SPEAKERS...they suck to replace...and if u do have to replace...watch out for those back retaining clips...they are hell to get out..

 

Normally, when you add a aftermarket headunit in place of the OEM headunit w/ an amplifier, the OEM amp will have a HI-Low line converter in it. What that means is that no matter how much powerful your head unit is, the convertor will drop the level down to under 4 volts. Then the amp will power your speakers.
Summary: If you do not bypass the factory amp you will be restricted to the specs of the factory amp.

I hope that made sense
