The ill wire is supposed to be connected with the parking lights of the car. it actually reduces the brightness of your head unit, it is needed because in the night the head unit looks very flashy and the ill wire brings it to a normal level as you turn on your cars parking lights.

What is the reverse wire coming out of a car stereo?

The reverse wire in a car stereo system is typically used to trigger specific functions when the vehicle is in reverse gear, such as activating a rear-view camera or enabling parking assist features. This wire is usually connected to the vehicle's reverse light circuit and signals the stereo to switch to the appropriate input or display. Properly connecting this wire can enhance the functionality of the stereo and improve safety while reversing.

Where do you attach the remote wire to your car stereo?

The remote wire coming out of your car stereo constantly sends a low voltage signal while the stereo is turned on. This is to signal external components such as amplifiers or power antenae to activate. If you don't have these items, the remote wire should be taped off as to not ground out on anything. IF you were wondering where to run the remote wire from your amplifier to a stereo that does not have a remote wire, I would suggest sistering it to the hot wire (red) coming out of the stereo. Make sure that your radio doesn't function without the ignition turned on. If your radio works without the key in the ignition and you have your remote wire from your amp wired to the hot wire on your deck your amp will remain on all of the time wether you're in the car or not. This will lead to a dead battery. Hope this helps Shane (vmax33)
