I just installed the TA850 just to get a little bass, there is no led to see if its on. I've check all of the connections and still nothing is working.

How did you hook it up? "It's not working." is simply not enough information to give you any definate suggestions at this point. However, if you hooked up the remote (orange wire) to the remote wire on your head unit, you will need to remove the quick release loop from the tube in order for it to turn on, I believe. At least that's what the instructions said and what I did, and I have had no issues with getting it to turn on. Make sure the volume on the tube is turned up. Also make sure if you connected it to the low level input that your fader is at 0 or leaning towards your rear speakers as your head unit most likely uses those for the line out, as mine does. Oh, and don't forget to buy a ground loop isolator if you have any popping issues. :^P

Thanks for the tips. I found it, my remote wire wasn't connected to a good source. I just need to uncross the output lines from the head unit to the tube, it only hits if its balanced to one side or the other.

I have run into another problem. Now that the speaker is working, well I might add, it blows my electronic locks and mirrors control. Any insight on what went wrong this time.

Exactly what did you hook the remote wire up to? I have a feeling that you didn't hook it directly to the deck's remote wire....

I saw one of these in Wal Mart and was thinking of buying. Is there a FAST-BTAH harness that fits the TA850? If I could get some type of adapters to make it a plug and play type thing it would be ideal.
