Hi everyone!

I've seen the 3 different write-ups online at s-cars, audiworld, etc.  
And they were very helpful, but I'm having an issue...

Sourced and installed the Concert I. I'm having trouble getting the  
Bose amps to turn on using the recommended wiring procedure.  
Currently, am using switched 12v as the signal for the relay as the  
white/black wire isn't sending enough juice to close the relay and  
complete the circuit. I'm only measuring 5.5v at startup on this wire.  
I'm using a 12v 30a relay from autozone.

Has anyone else had this problem? Is there another pin I can get a  
switched 12v signal to feed to the relay?
Is my relay the problem, and would a micro relay from radio shack work  
better?

It's working the way it is but I have to remember to turn on the radio  
BEFORE starting the car or I'm greeted with a horrendous noise from  
the amp kicking on!
