Remote wire in MY07

hey guys.. i hooked up a sub and noticed the remote wire is kinda crappy signal as the amp continually turns off after a while (its not hot).. when i use just normal power for the remote i have no problems so i know its the source of the remote cable which i tapped into from under the middle console where the cup holders are..

anyone have a better suggestion without removing the head unit.. im too lazy to pull the whole stock mcintosh headunit out just for a remote wire

thanks in advance

cheers

Adam

The cigarette lighter fuse should be 10 amps if that is of any help
