i recently bought a sub from a friend for pretty cheap and i tried installing it today.
i have the infinity bass link and im using an am headunit.
im pretty sure i did the wiring right but it wont power on.
i swapped the fuses and rechecked the wiring but no luck.
for those of you that dont know the bass link it has an amp built into it.
heres 2 pics i took with my phone.

heres where i grounded it (its right behind the rear seat. there were two hooks, one on each side) :


heres the capacitor connected to the battery:


thanks!

Does the basslink need a remote trigger to turn it on? Please explain AM headunit.

that looks like the fuse there buddy, not the cap...

did you wire the monitor line into the HU...typically the monitor line needs to be connected so the amp knows when to power on when either the HU or the car does...you wire it into the power antenna line in the HU wiring harness...

It could be your ground. I've heard that those bolts don't work to run a ground to. I used a self-tapping screw into the trunk... just make sure not to hit the gas tank!

possibly scuff up the contact point, if its on paint it wont ground...

I was thinking the same thing, check that grounding.

lol sorry for the late response but yeah i pretty much solved it...
i was missing the remote wire and the ground wasnt that great i found a spot a little above the original spot.
all i have to say is that this system is DEF worth the money.
its incredibly light and compact...
all i have to say is that this was the missing component in the stock speaker setup :)
